Hey there. I am looking to build a new pc and I am having a hard time now that I have a much larger budget. I know that sounds dumb but I have a budget of no higher than $800.00us. I would like to keep it around $700.00us so I can get a new keybored and mouse. Please help. I have seen some really nice Ryzen builds out there but I am not sure if they are right. I am just looking to game and do low demanding work (word and excel) on it. So mainly a gaming pc. Please help. 

 

I know this is where to go for the true computer enthusiasts. :)

I'd step down to a 1050ti, just because it's a budget build and because he wants to spend $700 on the pc and $100 on peripherals.

Missed the peripherals thing. 

Then go ahead with a 1050Ti.

To be honest i would not mind on skimping on the peripherals if I can get a rockin rig. So I dont mind spending only $25 on a mouse and keyboard.  

 

I do really like the idea of the R5 cpu and a 1060 gpu because I have had the gpu before and I really like it. I got it for a steal for $100 but had to sell the whole rig when money got way to tight. I had to eat. But now im good and after I just did my budget i can do $800 on the rig. Should I start a new thread with the updated budget or should I go with the build that is $795.29 that Eibe posted?
