In my opinion you should go atleast with 8gb of ram.

[GDRRiley]

more ram 

[Guest]

4gb is not enough ram

Gigabyte gpu is bad. Get different rx 480 8gb

[rn8686]

All good, no issues. Just out of curiosity, what currency are you using? Seems overpriced to be in pounds to dollars. 

 

Edit: Re-read it and realised you should add more ram, 8Gb will be enough. Also, get a different 480, gigabyte models have major cooling issues.

I would add that 12 GB should be minimum if playing modern games.

[Phantom1234]

Lol its INR. There is no AMD available in my country and its also too expensive and i changed the ram to 

G.SKILL DDR4 2400MHZ AEGIS SERIES (8GB)

The 2 main bottlenecks in this system will be RAM (definetely more ram. 8gb min for decent gaming) and the HDD. While it seems like a big expense now, a 256 GB ssd will make for a snappier system and faster startup. It also avoids you the problem of upgrading to a ssd later, where you gotta make sure that the drive you wanna clone to the ssd has less data on it than your ssd can hold. In most gaming scenarios where most likely the drive will be filled with several large steam games, you would have to uninstall each large game (until your used capacity on your hdd is less than the capacity of the hdd), clone the hdd to the ssd, wipe the hdd, and reinstall the large steam games.

Here are my recommendations:

• Increase the RAM to 8GB
• Get a slightly better PSU so you can later upgrade since you can future proof that.  Maybe a 550W 80 Plus Gold PSU.
• Get at least a small SSD boot drive.

instead of GIGABYTE the other options are:

MSI

ASUS

powercolor

Sapphire(overpriced)

I can remove the HDD and replace it with a SSD and I said that I AM GETTING A 8 GB RAM EARLIER.READ BEFORE YOU TYPE!!!!!!!!!

Get MSI ASUS XFX or Sapphire. PowerColor and Gigabyte made poor choices when creating the RX 400 Radeon series GPUs.

i am  getting this SSD-Samsung 750 EVO 120GB SSD Drive

for extra storage i am gonna put in my 500gb  PS3 hdd and A external 1tb hdd

They make okay-ish Nvidia GPUs, but okay-ish is not good enough as for the same price you can get better alternatives making their GPUs essentially bad. For AMD they have been making literally garbage GPUs since the R9 200 series.

 

[Phantom1234]

i an also put in a GTX 1060

[Phantom1234]

is this good:

Sapphire Radeon NITRO Rx 480 8GB GDDR5 Dual HDMI DVI-D Dual DP w backplate UEFI PCI-E Graphics Card Graphics Cards 11260-07-20G

[Phantom1234]

CPU: Intel Core i5 6500 LGA1151 Socket 3.20GHz Processor-17000

GPU: Sapphire Radeon NITRO Rx 480 8GB GDDR5 Dual HDMI DVI-D Dual DP w backplate UEFI PCI-E Graphics Card Graphics Cards 11260-07-20G-20602

PSU: Corsair CXM 450W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply-8,257

storage: Samsung 750 EVO 120GB SSD Drive-3654

 

RAM: G.SKILL DDR4 2400MHZ AEGIS SERIES (8GB)-4150

*EDITED* Did not see the updated list further down in the thread. Saw the massive font, the screaming white-boxes and completely ignored it.

 

Cpu, perfectly mid-ranged. 6/10

GPU, excellent mid-range gpu. Performance for the masses. 6/10

Ram, below average. A bottleneck in many scenarios. 3/10 Perfectly acceptable on a budget. 5/10

Motherboard, adequate. 5/10

PSU, bottom tier of 'acceptable'. 4/10

Storage, adequate. 5/10

Case, perfectly acceptable. Cases can't nitpick really. 5/10

 

All in all, with those specs I'd give it a solid 5/10

Its average, despite the awesome gpu you have comparatively. drop in a more stable/reliable powersupply for that 480, and it could easily be a 6/10, an above average gaming computer.

DUDE WHAT THE HELL THIS IS MY FIRST GAMING PC BUILD EVER AND IT NEED TO BE IN BUDGET

BUDGET:around $900

Its slightly below average, despite the awesome gpu you have comparatively. Get another 4gbs of ram, drop in a more stable/reliable powersupply for that 480, and it could easily be a 6/10, an above average gaming computer.

IF YOU THINK YOU ARE SO GREAT GIVE ME A GAMING SETUP AVAILABLE IN INDIA FOR $900

*EDITED* changed my original post as well

You came to a tech forum and asked for a broad sweeping opinion of a build.

That rating takes into consideration high-end builds, and low end builds.

A rating of 5/10 is exactly average, middle of the ground. Not a high-end powerhouse, or a bargain-bin champ.

 

I don't have ready access to india's price listings for the majority of the stuff you could buy so there's no way I could tailor a list for you. All I can do is give you advice, which I did. Drop another 4gbs of ram, and if you can swap out the powersupply you'll have an above average gaming computer. If you can't fit in a different powersupply to your budget then don't worry about it. The cx series isn't going to catch fire, but I wouldn't put it in a system with as much as you have. It will work though, for all intents and purposes.

Change EVO 750 to something cheaperhttp://www.amazon.in/dp/B01H5KW9W4/?tag=pcp03-21

Don't shout. People are trying to help. Be calm or no one will help

 120GB is not enough for games. You should get a HDD fast

Is the RAM 1x8 or 2x4?

Eveyrthing else is good
