Hey guys. I'm looking to build my first gaming pc. If you guys could help out i'd appreciate it a lot.

I'm looking to solely purchase parts from amazon if possible. I'm hoping to run games at minimum settings.

 

Budget is around $500

I've already found some inexpensive peripherals so I don't need any help with that.

 

Thanks

All Amazon. 2400G, 8GB of RAM, 550W PSU for future upgrades. Could go for a cheaper motherboard if needed.

why only amazon? other sites may have better deals, and pcpp usually has shipping prices listed anyways.

mid-high 1080p should be fine. if you can stretch the budget abit get an RX 570.
