TomR

Hey, can anyone help me out with a parts list for a $500-$600 budget to play AAA games at 1080p low settings? Located in California. Thanks.

Should really throw in an SSD to use as a boot drive, the difference is like night and day.

I'm aware, but it would not stay under $600 then, and you have to have more than 120-240gb of storage.

My suggestion has plenty of budget for a SSD.

As it looks now I'm leaning toward a R5 1400, B350M mobo, small SSD, 8gb of ram to later upgrade to 16gb, and a 1050ti that would later be upgraded next year or so.

Would be damn near impossible to get that GPU at that price.

Because that's the price stores have it listed at, they just have none in stock because miners have bought them out, the only place to buy them right now is ebay/craiglist and you end up paying 350+
