Windows 10 likes freezing every 5 minutes, I've tried every fix but I was planning on selling my pig anyways. So I put together a Canadian dollar build @ Memory Express, I will not be ordering online or going to another shop. I think I made a good build with the money I have. Pretty sure I shouldn't have any problems. Here it is. Btw I tried PCPP but I was having issues finding parts so I didn't bother, sorry for that. Please tell me if my build is good. I know for sure I am not changing the power supply or the case. It's the right size for the case I am using, and it's tier 2 @deXxterlab97thanks for the help on choosing one for me. The build is in the spoiler. And the fans are coming later. Though I think the case comes with them.
