I have around $500 (US) currently, and plan on getting 600 within the first 5 weeks of summer. Can anybody recommend a system for around that price?

If i plan on getting any more than that, I will create a new topic.

With a screen, I'd be tempted to drop down to a G4560, which isn't ideal.

I'd suggest waiting until Ryzen 3 drops, and then making a list.

@Implosivetech You'll notice a lot of these builds have you sacrificing CPU or GPU power.聽 If you're willing to spend a little extra money (roughly $40), I strongly recommend getting an RX 580 GPU and a Ryzen 5 1500X CPU.聽 Even if you have to save for an extra month, it would be worth it.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

Check thrift stores, Let Go, and Offer Up for those.聽 You can get good used 1080p monitors quite cheap.
