[SOLVED] Building my first gaming computer

[externium35]

Hey. I am building my first gaming pc. This year for Christmas I got an a320m-k motherboard and I just ordered an fx-4200. (Specs: fx-4200, A320M-k, 750W, 2x4gb 2333mhz, 1050ti, etc.) Will these parts work?

Fx4200... What? Very bad cpu for today.

PSU too much wattage 550-650w will suffice.

Ram, too slow to work on today's cpu





Where do you live, What's's your budget?

No not only is that cpu horrible, it's also incompatible with that motherboard. If you can cancel that order and give me a budget I can help you

My budget is 300 for the whole pc, ram is actually 2400mhz and im changing psu to 600w. What cou should i get? - im just getting the pc to play minecraft, gota.io and possibly fortbite on low settings. (Also forgot to say i have an 360gb ssd)

Will and a8-9600 work?

If it's an a320 board, you will want an AMD ryzen cpu.

The cheapest I would go with is this.

If you can afford a ryzen 5 or higher those are better. That chip above is a quad core, for basic gaming it will be fine.

Something like that should work okay, can be upgraded by adding a gpu later if you want, or add both a cpu and GPU later

Op has a 1050ti.

Was hard to tell the way that was written. I'll redo it if he confirms he already owns a 1050ti
