Budget PC Build (i3 6100 + 1050 ti)

[phsxes]

Hi everyone! I'm looking to build my first PC, I'm not an expert on the subject but I'm trying my best.

I'm aiming for a really cheap PC, reasons:

-I don't have a big budget.
-I do not want to risk super expensive components with my poor knowledge of the PC-building world.

Ok so far, this is what I'm aiming for:

If you wonder why I don't have a case: I do not mind aesthetics on my system and I have an old one that will work just fine.

I would take any recommendations on your part and thank you beforehand.

I wouldn't get a 120GB SSD. Either get a 250gb one or a 3.5" mechanical HDD. That will get full and slow down v quickly. I wouldnt skimp on PSU either. You are taking very big risks with a low quality PSU, not the other way around. It has to cover your butt!

Not bad. Couple things:

1) I would one dual channel for the RAM - https://pcpartpicker.com/product/LzTmP6/gskill-memory-f312800cl9d8gbxl - it's the same price, just smoother performance
2) Is 120GB is really going to be enough? Especially with Windows taking 15-20gb? I would recommend a 1TB for an extra $50. You can find cheaper, but this is data we are taking about.
3) https://pcpartpicker.com/product/zNK7YJ/evga-power-supply-100b10500kr - For $10 (basically losing the rebate) you get 50 more watts and a better rated PSU

Other than that, it looks like me

Any psu recommendation for this system? I'm pretty new to this so I don't really know the difference between the good and bad ones.

Also, I have mechanical drive that can work there, I have the SSD there mainly for the OS.

Looks fine to me. Only this is a bit more SSD space would be good.

You'll want to install softwareon the SSD too. You are getting the 1050Ti so I assume you are going to use it for gaming.. but GTA V alone is 60gb plus patches for example. And a small size SSD has much lower IOPS and latency than its larger capacity models.
