New pc build!

This is my 12th draft of this build. I hope it is near to done in the next few days. This list should have everything I need to make it, right? I don't like how much this costs. Is there anything I can do to cut this price down? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vLDfnn

I might spend a little more on the motherboard tbh, but you should be able to get by with even 450W as far as the PSU goes

Can I cut down the price for the build at all? I don't like how expensive it is?

To start off, you'll have to scramble to get all those rebates off so I wouldn't plan around more than one or two mail-in rebates.

ECS motherboards have a fame of being hit or miss, I trust asrock on cheap mobos.

 

That said this is as low as it will drop given the same performance.

Depends. Without performance loss, then not really. But if you don't mind lowering settings just a tad, then you could step down to a 1050ti or even a 460 (but the 460 is a noticeable downgrade)

I really want to play Just Cause 3 medium settings 900p 60fps and kill minecraft.

Edit: I just realized you put Win10 Pro in there. You don't need Pro. Just get home for less.

How much are you willing to spend for the whole thing?

About 475$ but I keep forgetting to factor in OS.

So $475 for OS and everything?

 

That's a really tight budget.

This PSU is nowhere near as good and is likely to last less than 2 years if you game every day, but it does get you gaming.
