1. Budget & Location

I have a budget of 700$. I dont mind going a little over it like 100$. I live in Canada.

2. Aim

I only plan to play games like league of legend, modded mincraft, watch youtube videos and i will aslow be using it to do project on word for school.

3. Monitors/Case/Components 

I alredy have the phantom nzxt 410 case, a small monitor and a MSI RX 480 GAMING X 4G Radeon witch i recived for my birthday.

4. Peripherals

I alredy have a mice and a keyboard but i need an OS for windows. If you have an idea for a nice monitor you may add it but dont include it in the final price.

5. Why are you upgrading?

I am upgrading because my old left me to a better world...

And then Windows 10 from Kinguin for $30-$40.

 

You might also wanna check out the Ryzen 5 1400 and 1500x which are a bit cheaper than the 7500 while potentially having a bit better performance.
