I've been looking to buy one but everyone says it's cheaper and better to build one. So please help me with finding the parts I'm new at this.

What is the use of this computer?
I would like to use it for gaming and sometimes school

If you're a gamer what kind of games will you be playing? FPS, RTS, RPG
Are you a heavy multitasker & gamer? Or Just gamer only?
I would like to play mainly RPG but also others. Not a heavy multitasker.

What's your budget?
My budget is $450 on a stretch

How much storage space is adequate enough for you?
Not much. Probably 250-500gb

How long do you want this rig to last?
As long as possible I guess

What resolution will you be playing on?
The highest possible thats within my budget

Will you overclock? If so how far?
Possibly in the future

Do you need a monitor or other accessories?
No monitor needed. Nothing else either.


If you guys could help me out with this I would be very thankful. Also where could I figure out how to assemble the parts? (if I buy them)
