Hi there!

 

Recently I decided to pull together $600 for a Gaming/Editing computer, But I have no clue what parts I should buy. I say this because I don't know what parts I should get for my budget, That is why I need your help!
I was hoping to get a micro ATX case/motherboard, and if possible a dedicated GPU, I know at due to crypto mining You couldn't can't find a dedicated card at a reasonable price but that is why I said: "if possible".  I also need at least 16GB of ram, an SSD would be nice as well, But of course, they are a bit pricey. I say "Gaming/Editing computer" Because I plan to both Edit and game on the computer Nothing extreme just casual gaming and editing, Now here is the big question... What would you build at this price point?


If you have happened to have any ideas please let me know! 

 

Kind regards,

Slightsai

What country?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Grab a used i7 K sku, Z board, 16GB of DDR3 and a GTX 980 from CL/Ebay and then get a 120GB SSD, 1tb HDD, CX550M and Arctic Freezer 33 eSports One and whatever case is cheap. There you go.
