Budget build complete(?)

[zombieking1100]

After staying up late at night perfecting the pieces to please the master race I believe I have made the perfect budget build to fit my gaming needs
How does it look

I'd go with faster memory(DDR4 3000 or faster would be ideal for the 8 series).

Also, why did you pick that laptop hard drive for this? You could easily find a 1TB 7200rpm desktop drive for cheaper(around $49)

There's no point going for higher spec'd ram like DDR4-3000 especially when the processor and the chipset are limiting factors. I'm sorry but that is just bad money wasting advise.

OP,
You can take a look at this, a little higher but includes an SSD and a matched kit, also swapped the board out to the B360 chipset.

Just got another answer how's it look

[zombieking1100]

can I put both hard drives in the desktop?

 

[Lutfij]

In the refined build I parsed? Yeah you can. I also think you prematurely selected my post as the Best Answer... :/

 

[zombieking1100]

I barely know what I'm doing here tbh

 

[Lutfij]

Alright, what games are you intending to play and at what resolution?

 

[n0ns3ns3]

probably this would be better idea because integrated GPU is on the same level as the RX 550:

b]CPU:[/b] AMD - Ryzen 5 2400G 3.6GHz Quad-Core Processor ($162.79 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: MSI - B350M PRO-VDH Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($68.00 @ Amazon)
Memory: Patriot - Viper 4 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-3000 Memory ($84.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Toshiba - P300 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($42.88 @ OutletPC)
Case: Thermaltake - Core V21 MicroATX Mini Tower Case ($34.99 @ Newegg)
Power Supply: SeaSonic - FOCUS Gold 550W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($54.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $448.64

you can spend the 100$ to:
1. upgrade the RAM to 16BG
2. get an SSD.

Later you can add a proper GPU.

The disk you picked is a slow 2.5" drive, i wouldn't recommend using it for a desktop.

I intend on playing games that aren't super good in graphics but not horrible to look at like all the Soulsborne games and MHW when it comes out and like maybe garrys
Mod. The resolution is something I don't know very well on computer but I intend on keeping it relatively low just so my toaster doesn't get toasted.

You're a little late but I already got some suggestions and came up with this

[n0ns3ns3]

And yet the recommendation remains the same, ryzen 2400G would be better idea than i3-8100 + RX 550
and you still get 100$ spare.

The ryzen isn't compatible with my current motherboard any suggestions?

 

[n0ns3ns3]

you can take the MB from the list I posted earlier.

I'm pretty sure that's the same mb

 

[n0ns3ns3]

It is AM4 (AMD) B350 motherboard.

That Seasonic 520w isn't a good buy. The CX450M is a better option: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/FQ648d/corsair-power-supply-cp9020101na
