Cheapest core components I found which would be acceptable to game and stream. The GPU listed below is used but if interested in a new 660 Ti, here is a MSI GTX 660 Ti PE @ $220. The PSU I wouldn't recommend not getting full modular but the SeaSonic listed was the cheapest right above 600W. The build I listed needs a min of 600W
CPU: AMD FX-8320 - $159
MOBO: MSI 970A-G43 - $69 ($59 after MIR)
GPU: MSI GTX 660 Ti 2GB $173
PSU: SeaSonic S12II 620W - $69

Now what about a tower that will be able to house this stuff? I don't have one of those either
When I say build, I mean from the ground up.

I'm not picking out a case, that is your style brother.
If you are going cheap and still want it to look okay, try the Cheap Corsairs.

I should be looking at mid towers and not full towers correct?
Posted on 12/22/13 at 8:22 pm to USAF Hart
You can look at mid or full. Nothing wrong with a full tower, other than it being larger and more room than you'll need. And it will also cost more.
Posted on 12/22/13 at 8:22 pm to USAF Hart
I would, mid towers are already pretty big

You could get a black case and fill it with red led fans.

So after looking at PCPartpicker for a while now, I have come to the realization that I just don't know shite about computers. I don't even know where to start with this shite.

check out ILikeLSUToo's pc gaming guide. I read through it last week and feel like I have decent knowledge on pc builds now.

CaseLabs, I have a SM8 Merlin.
Joking. Just search on NewEgg.
You have an ATX form factor, just remember that.

PCPartPicker is useful for finding good prices and making sure your parts are basically compatible, but it has zero usefulness in terms of best bang for buck, best performance, features, or anything else a novice would need.

Is it possible to get dumber after reading such an in-depth post of intelligence? Because I believe that just happened. I didn't even read everything in there, just sort of looked at things like RAM, CPU, Motherboards and I just feel completely fricking special olympics meets Hellen Keller retarded now
