£500 PC

[somerandomguy12]

Hey there,

 

An asending console player of mine is coming over to PC. He has a budget of around £500 UK (You can stretch it a bit) and wants to see what he can get now before Ryzen. So throw your builds at me since I am not familiar with this price bracket.

Since $>=€ in PC parts I will just assue that the same goes for pounds and € thus giving you my standard issue 500€ build:

1 Kingston SSDNow UV400  240GB, SATA (SUV400S37/240G)
1 Intel Core i3-6100, 2x 3.70GHz, boxed (BX80662I36100)
1 G.Skill Value 4 DIMM   8GB, DDR4-2400, CL15-15-15-35 (F4-2400C15S-8GNT)
1 KFA² GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC, 4GB GDDR5, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort (50IQH8DSN8OK)
1 Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2HP
1 BitFenix Nova schwarz (BFX-NOV-100-KKWSK-RP)
1 Corsair VS Series VS350 (Rev. 2.0)  350W ATX 2.31 (CP-9020095-EU)

I mean British pounds not euros.

If you press the EU flag in the top lefthand corner and then the Union Flag up there you will see the British pricing

Are you sure a VS 350w can handle that? Doesn't seem so to me.

PCPartPicker is an easier option for worldwide builds / prices.

You've managed to stretch your budget! Hopefully Ryzen will mean  he gets a better CPU.
