Hi, I want to build a PC soon and I have a budget of $500. I live in the US. I wane to use this PC for gaming (CS:GO) and record it and upload it to YouTUBE. I currently am receiving a nice motherboard (I'll add a picture), CPU Cooler(Zalman and don't know what kind), i5-3750k, 420-watt power supply, and DDR3 4x4gb of ram. So I currently need the following: GPU, Monitor, Keyboard, wifi USB, SATA Storage,and case at the minimum budget, and I guess I'll need windows 10 too.

 

The things I am receiving are from a nice friend that has a new PC so yay!

I guess I'll add a pcpartpicker of the things I need to get: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Whalzie/saved/7CBTWZ

Best,

Zusher

btw i strongly recommend getting the monitor and keyboard i've linked - the monitor is ips and has a relatively fast response time - and the keyboard may not have cherry switches, but the blues on it are actually really good for gaming - only thing i could see that you could compromise on is the gpu - a 1050ti 4gb will run games like battlefield and overwatch at 70 fps on high - and with the saved money you could either get a really cheap corsair cx450m psu when it's on sale with the mail in rebate for 20 dollars and get a nice case

I guess you should drop the keyboard to a much cheaper price xD

and I just might be able to get a monitor from my grandparent xD

Best,

also, the keyboard should be kept as is, mechanical is needed for gaming, a gaming mouse can be bought on gearbest.com or amazon for a pretty cheap price
