Is this desktop build good?

[Juicebox God]

Hi,
I want a computer to build that is good for games and other things, just a generally powerful computer. I found a build on elitegamingcomputers that looks good to me, but is that site able to be trusted, or could you tell me if this would work?
Here is the build:
CPU: AMD FX-6300
Motherboard: ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS AM3+
Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon R9 270X
RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 500 GB
Case: Rosewill Dual Fans
Power Supply: Antec VP-450
Optical Drive: Samsung 24x SATA DVD RW
That's the build. If you want the article: https://elitegamingcomputers.com/ho...or-minecraft-without-spending-a-ton-of-money/
Lastly, any mouse/keyboard/monitor/desk/chair recommendations?
Thank you so much!

Please don't unless it's like $100

It's 500 dollars, so I shouldn't build it?

 

[johnb35]

No you shouldn't. Do you have a budget in mind?

 

[Juicebox God]

Hmm... I don't want to go too much over $500, with all the extras I need for a computer (desk, monitor, etc)

That build doesn't include an Operating System so you'll have to factor that in as well. What specific games do you play?

 

[Juicebox God]

Minecraft. However, with the ability to download stuff and buy stuff (my other two computers were toasters and chrome books) I will definitely play other games. Looking into another build now, do you think maybe this one would work? https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/DMdnTW/entry-level-amd-gaming-build#cx2518562

You mean this one?



Again, there is no Operating System included so you are talking another 90 bucks at least if on sale. You would definitely want a Ryzen build at this point.

What is a Ryzen build? (Sorry I am very new) The link took you to the bottom of the page I just realized, if you scroll to the top then I think you can find the $517 one. The build you have shown me was found in the comment section I believe.

 

[johnb35]

Ryzen is AMD's new processor series. Ok, found the other build for $519. Not bad but still need an Operating System on it.

 

[Juicebox God]

I know. I figured with all the add-on costs (I'm completely unprepared and my mouse broke, so I have to pay for monitor, desk, chair, mouse, and keyboard, and OS, which I am willing to do) it would be a lot pricier. Does the build get your approval, though, or any things I might want to switch out? I am not planning on overclocking.

 

[Juicebox God]

I won't be able to reply for a bit now, as I'm going to go to sleep, so I haven't abandoned the post. I will get up and reply to it as soon is I see it in the morning, so good night I guess! (Super jet lagged)

Ahhh! The horror! :-( Please don't build that. It's shameful. Go with Ciscos001's build above.

How do you put a part list in like that?
