Hi,

My friend wanted to build a cheap efficient gaming pc and I came up with the following build. The budget was 500 euros and i barely made it.

Intel Pentium Anniversary G3258
Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB Kit
Palit GTX 750
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0
Xilence Redwing series ATX 450W
Seagate baracuda 1TB

Enermax Ostrog Q

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated as im trying to learn as much as possible about pc building 😀

Thank You

No im maltese. I heard that the pentium was easily overclockable for gaming. So we decided to go with that. Is it bad?
