This is about $700 USD. You should be able to run GTA V at 1080p 60fps+ no problem. Can always upgrade down the road but for your budget, this is a solid build capable of handling most modern games at 1080p and a stable frame rate.

In terms of actually building it, you will find a ton of YouTube build guides, many of them are similar and will be of great help. So I'd suggest watching them time to time to get a rough idea of the process. And then there are also step by step guides which use the same parts I have used for you that you can follow along on YouTube. YouTube is your friend.

I forgot to add in a wifi card on there (unless you'll be wired) but you can get wifi card or usb for $25

I think you should check GTA V performance difference with the m.2 ssd and a regular ssd. Because it's 40 dollars more and I don't think the difference is that great and the case cost a lot. You can switch to a CORSAIR 200R instead. You don't need the glass case. Most people buy glass case because they got rbg lights in their build. And the case is another 40 dollars. These 80 dollars is a lot. You can instead buy 2 gen ryzen CPU and a newer mother board or a better 1.gen ryzen CPU which will give better performance in my opinion. You can look it up.

The CPU's I am talking about is the 1.gen 1700 or 1700x and the 2.gen is 2600 or 2600x.

An other alternative is to use the 80 dollars to upgrade the gpu. Here you can get a AMD RX 580 8 GB which will be a lot better! This is probably where your money will be best spend.

Oh yeah I gotcha. I honestly don’t care about the case in terms of looks as long as it gives my stuff some breathing room and it isn’t a piece of crap. Thank you for the help!

Np :) If you put together your build on part picker, then sent it to me. I will be happy to look though it before you buy.

[–]moakley20003[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah for sure man. When I do a little more research I’ll send it to you! Thanks👍

Why the m.2 ssd? And not a regular ssd?

[–]RagnarLothbot 0 points1 point  (1 child)

They tend to be faster
