For the past year, I have been completely into learning about computers and building them. When I mean Computers, I mean Gaming Desktops. With No Budget, I can reach the sky with potential for one of the most powerful PC's out there. But let's be realistic. Nobody has unlimited money to throw into a dream PC which could be obselete in a few years. So I give you here, a Realistic list of parts and their costs.
*Note that every part you will need to build computer is in this build, including WIFI, Disk drive, OS, and case.

Build


This brings us to a total of $1200 dollars. Now if You wanted to say push the cost down to about $1000, you could replace the Intel core i5 with the AMD FX 8350, which is a equivalent in some aspects. In a lot of aspects it is also better. This reduces the cost by about $80 dollars. Sweet huh? More Power, Less money? And another replacement is to switch the GPU for a lower model, the GTX 650 or GTX 650 ti which also reduces the price by around $50 dollars. There are also different types of RAM. I included 8gb and a fast type, but you could use a 4gb stick or try and find a cheaper 8gb.

Anyway, that's my recommendation. Please comment on changes you would make, and I can tell you if it is smart or not. Peace.
