Any improvements or alternative builds you guys can recommend for around the same price?

Single 8GB stick of ram would be better for upgrade down the line ,get a 256GB SSD and get a copy of windows from Reddit for a cheaper price

Get a 1600. It's only slightly more expensive, but to hell its worth it. You will thank yourself later. Also, don't get Win 10 pro, home is fine.

In my opinion, it looks fairly good. If I were to recommend a possible change, you could always substitute a CX550M Bronze instead of the TX550M Gold saving yourself $15, then upgrade the 1500x to a 1600 for around $30 extra, while gaining two extra cores and threads.

i would go with a 1050ti or if you have the money a 1060

They may save $15, but will also drop 2 PSU tiers in the process.

He would probably do just fine with 450w. I was being generous. His gold 550w is overkill, in my opinion.

"Get your OS for $30 at most."

Kinguin, G2A, Reddit, etc. You can use Win10 for free though
