First gaming PC

[HZapperz]

After multiple posts and research I have come across this pc. My budget just for the pc was around 800$.

Could you please tell me if this is a decent pc, I just play CS:GO and League of Legends

Mosy anything can play those so yes, you're good.

1080p monitor?

At your budget, I would personally get a G4560, but otherwise, it's fine.

I'd go for a better power supply.

In regards to lowering other parts to get an SSD, just buy windows from Kinguin for $25, use the $60 saved on a 120gb ssd to use as a boot drive.

I'd drop down to the Ryzen 1400 and get an SSD. Or get a Pentium G4560 and an H110 motherboard and an SSD.

 

You will get sick of that hard drive being a big hindrance to your user experience.

Decided to just get one of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F9G43WU/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I3DO3GLG9YL5J5&colid=2QEN12PGGSW6I

In the future I want to get some heavier games so i think im going to stick to this cpu and motherboard

Counting in rebates, your old pick is actually $2 cheaper

AM4 will have 2nd gen of CPU (maybe even 3rd gen), so if a lower budget is needed, the 1400 is ok. You can upgrade it without buying a new mobo in the future.

 

You PSU isn't terrible, but there are better ones at more or less the same price, like the Corsair CX450M. 450W is more than enough for your system

I'd go with an SSD, I can't imagine a computer without one. They're also not overly expensive, but try and get one that's 240GB+ as they generally have much better performance.

Ehhhh I dno I'd rather have more real cores. Ryzen isn't the crippled AM3 platform of old.

I'd get something 1080p with that system, I prefer IPS but others prefer the quicker response times of TN.

Haha, sometimes you get quite a bit more by stepping up to a nicer case
