Basically none, why pre-built?

 

what budget/country, what do you need the PC for?

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Then an R5 2600 + RX 570 system, should really just build it yourself

 

motherboard might need a BIOS update, can get a free boot kit for that, or it's probably updated by now, B450 boards are almost double the price for some reason

I have this build I was thinking of... Thoughts? 

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/SurRainbow/saved/vBvWD3

Ryzen is a better value for the CPU

 

cooler is almost as bad as a stock one

 

motherboard has no VRM heatsinks

 

needs dual channel memory

needs a 240GB SSD minimum

 

no one should buy a 3GB 1060, the RX 570 looks to be the best value on the AUS part picker

case has 0 airflow

PSU is fairly average or below average from a quick search.

 

Just take out the SSD in my build if you need to get it cheaper

 

do you also need a monitor?

Not if your build has a thunderbolt display output?

Sell it to some apple fan boy for a bunch of cash and upgrade to like a 1080p 144hz/240hz display for gaming?

Thunderbolt is not typical for desktop machines and is only really found in higher end expensive motherboards
