So hello guys my name is TrollFaceTheMan, I run a YouTube channel with about 22,500 subs. This is my first post to this forum and I am looking to share a build that I spent about 5 hours researching and pricing. I do apologize if anything I do in this post is wrong I am new to the site and couldn't find the rule page.
Basically I set out with a goal of building a pretty decent, high quality gaming PC for $500 or below. This is best optimized for Q4 2017-Q1 2018. A special requirement for me though was no Janky Parts. Most of the time people shove in the cheapest, budget parts they can get and they either break or don't work right.
So my prerequisite is any parts I use for this build have to have 4 stars or above for me to use them. So this is what I came up with.
Basically the build is:
-Ryzen 1400 CPU
-MSI B350m Gaming Pro MoBo
-8GBs (2x4Gb) DDR4 3000MHz Viper Elite Ram
-450watt Arc series PSU (Suggested alternative by several members, Seasonic PSU, I like the look of the S12II 620 BRONZE. 34.99 after $15 mail in rebate.)
-SanDisk SSD Plus, 120GB.
-Rosewill Micro ATX Mini Tower Case
-Gigabyte Geforce 1050 (Suggested alternative by Deerling7, EVGA 1050 ti)
When priced it came out to $450. (Good to spend the left over cash on a HDD me thinks.)
I think for what it cost it's a pretty solid build though I bet others might still be able to shave off a few more bucks if price checking multiple sites.
My eyes want to bleed from how long I had to stare at a computer screen over this XD
Now another thing I did in this time was type up a huge blog post. Talking about the Parts, showing the Prices and why I chose them along with Some Recommendations.
If anyone is interested I really can use some feedback on my post such as checks for spelling mistakes or suggestions on how to make future post better. I also have links to all the parts on the page so anyone can check the prices and pick up the parts if they want.
Figured that way it'd be pretty convenient. The post is on my BlogSpot page and is my first one, you can find it here:

If people like the build I think I might be up for trying my hand at making a $1,000 budget build. Please let me know what you guys all think. And please drop a comment if you have any questions
