Hello all members of computer forum.com. I reach out to you hoping for some help with building my first rig. I'm looking to build a gaming computer that I'll be able to upgrade in the future as new games come out.
I don't have a very big budget. Somewhere between $600-$900. I don't need an OS, or a monitor.
I'm not really sure where to start as I'm always reading conflicting things about AMD vs Intel? Which build is the way to go at this time? Is it worth it to get a 2500 i5 vs the 2400s??
I was looking at this build and it's within my budget and looks good to me.

It uses a 2400 rather than a 2500 which I read is much better. Some guidance would be greatly appreciated. I hope I haven't broken any of the forum rules. I apologize If I have.
Thanks in advance,
An eager gamer.
