[AMD Radeon]

perfect budget gaming build

 

[TenPc]

The cx430 v2 PSU only delivers 336 watts on the 12v rail, better to go with the cx650, it offers 480 watts on the 12v rail. Always better to have excess watts than going too close to peak power.

500gb hdd is rather low for much of anything except Office apps, PC gaming takes a lot of space for installations and also requires a lot of virtual memory, better to go with a 1tb hdd.

The optical drive would not be blu-ray, only standard DVD & CD.

Overall, if you were only going to use Office apps, general internet and PC solitaire type games then it would be good however if you intend (should you actually acquire such a build) for high FPS and heavy PC gaming, you might have problems with freezing, sudden shutdowns and storage problems.

For a budget build that is a very nice machine, although I would go for a slightly better PSU as TenPc suggested.
