Hello,
I am looking into building a budget gaming pc, My ballpark price is $1,500 CDN including monitor. For the most part I stick to Total War and Paradox Interactive games so for a monitor, colour quality is more important than latency. This is the build that I've come up with and it's under budget. I can go about +$200 on this build if it will show noticeable improvements but preference is to keep it under $1,500. This pc will also be used for hosting a small plex server for which I may add additional storage at a later date. I plan on doing some light overclocking to increase value but nothing crazy. Any input would be greatly appreciated and I apologize if I didn't link this properly.
Thanks
