No sweat man.

Last little thing;
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] / [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Motherboard: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($49.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($65.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($59.99 @ Amazon)
Video Card: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($112.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Power Supply: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ($39.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Total: $328.95

If you can manage to up your budget a little, you could get that with this CPU;

A little under $400 for a full system, minus the case. Again, your current case COULD work but you'd need to double check. You could drop the SSD here to save $60 and pretty much get a full system for just over $300. However, I wouldn't go this route if you can avoid it since the motherboard is really quite bad, and although the CPU is an upgrade, it's not a great CPU, the Pentium G4560 is better. I would only go with this option if you're really not going to be able to upgrade your CPU soon if you go with the other option, because the E4500 will work for now and adding the 1050Ti should let you play games fairly comfortably unless they're CPU dependent, but you really do want to upgrade CPU as soon as possible

Hello!
I have already decided to buy the power supply that he listed, but I wanted to switch up the graphics card to a more cheaper one. I have been eyeballing the MSI AMD 560 itx 4gb. Do you guys think that this is a good idea or should I go for another one?

Hey! Once again, thank you for the information! I just have one quick question. While I was doing some research, I learned that the CPU requires a heatsink if I plan on getting a new one. Should I buy a new heatsink for my new CPU or will my old heatsink do? Or does the CPU come with a heatsink?

Don't bother getting an RX 560, GTX 1050 is the same price but performs better so grab a GTX 1050. Though, the GTX 1050Ti is absolutely worth the $30 premium over the 1050, so you should definitely aim for the 1050Ti if possible.

What CPU are you talking about? The Athlon X4 950? Comes with a stock cooler.

One more question for today,
Do you recommend getting the g4600 pentium or the Althon you recommended (assuming that i can afford either one).

Edit: sorry let me rephrase this question. What would be the best CPU if I had a budget of $90 for CPUs.

Edit 2: sorry, i'm stupid. Please ignore this question.
I'm going to go with the pentium you said earlier.
