Need help with a pc build

[bryano]

Hello I’m just getting around to building a new custom gaming pc. I am hoping that I can get most of the components for Christmas, my budget would be approximately $350.00 (a rough estimate) and I’m going to be gaming and maybe farming bitcoins any advice will be appreciated as far as components thanks.

$350 is going to be rough.

Depends on what hardware you have now that can be re-purposed.

List what you have currently, as $350 for a new PC is going to be real hard.

Best I can do. I would advise against getting this kind of build tho. Save at least ~$100 more to get something with better value.

sell your iphone, buy a decent pc if u want to game.

You'd need to spend twice that on the GPU alone for any hope of mining m8. Building an entire computer for it really won't get your far.

I didn't even comment on the mining thing, cause it's a pipe dream in this instance.

Quad core with a OCable MB, best I could do, swap the RX 550 for the GTX 1050 if you have an extra $30 as it is a better card.
