Honestly, the used market is a great place to start if your budget is very small.  Look what LTT has done with scrapyard wars!  You can negotiate for a great deal, it just takes a bit more research to understand which parts are worthwhile.

I agree. I think that for the price of the parts up there I have a good deal already. Possibly a new Graphics Card in the future.

Yup. Unfortunately I can only see a 1080 here on craigslist. A bit over my budget too at $450

and a few more out of budget prices. There's a case PSU combo for $50 though... I'm not interested though.
