I was thinking of a pc gaming build, coming from console, I knew nothing. I had a small credit on amaz  and decided on a few parts I could afford. I know the order was strange, but I'm a Noob. I ordered a not  240 mid white case, hyper 212 cooler, a Samsung 25o gb black ssd. 2 weeks later still receive zero parts, so called and was given a credit. Fast foward 3 months and my neighbor returns home for the Florida winter, and hands me my package that was delivered to his house, so I'm now ahead of the game. (morals aside) I have a head start. But I'm totally confused on GPu, cpu, motherboard, and power supply. (I'm just going to use a 2 tb hdd) my remaining balance is 775$ us. Probably just going to be gaming and maybe a home theater for movies to TV. Can anyone recommend remaining  parts for me or at least offer some compatibility things I should be looking for. I like some triple a games but also simple  games as well, thank you for your time and help if you can. I also now there is no future proofing but would like to be close if I can. Left out ram as well and white would   be nice

I would be happy to help. What country do you live?

I would rather agree on what we share, than fight on what we don't. - Myself

eh, i don think a multimillion dollar company cares bout a $50 refund

Right, because the one time they gave it to you was the only time it happened, so they're only out the $50.

...you really don't know how business works at all, do you.

Fraud is one of the largest expenses in retail, and one of the main reasons prices go up.

That lose is a absolute right off, it's a dollar to dollar exchange has no effect on there buisness whatsoever, I don't recommend fraudulent attempts because that is proscutible, both the usps and ups investigate what they expect as  fraud, I called Amazon they were not interested inreturning  the products because of the elapsed time and weather exposure, that should tell you It is in there best interest to except the

writreoff.

Not exactly. If anything it gets pushed through insurance. More insurance claims cause the rates to rise, which increases the cost of shipping, which increases Amazons costs, and guess who they push that on to? The consumer. So yes, it does come around to increase prices. It doesn't magically disappear into some "oh well, guess it's gone!" fourth dimension.

 

Not to be rude, but I really think you should proof read your posts before posting. They're absolutely riddled with spelling errors. Not even just spelling...you used an o for a 0 in the capacity of the SSD, and you've missed multiple places that should have a space.
