Hello,
My friend had a few components in his house and he asked me to complete the build for him on a tight budget. Not a gaming PC, mostly just he needs a desktop because he only has a laptop.
He had the 2200g CPU, and Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) RAM. I completed it as follows:
PCPartPicker Part List
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 2200G 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor ($0.00)
Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M S2H Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($57.00)
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) DDR4-2666 CL16 Memory ($0.00)
Storage: Samsung 970 Evo 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive ($70.00)
Case: Antec VSK10 Window MicroATX Mid Tower Case ($43.00)
Power Supply: Corsair CX (2017) 550 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($70.00)
Total: $240.00
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

I chose a cheap motherboard because he won't be OCing, and if he does, only very mildly because it's 2200g after all (Or he'll upgrade to 3400g/2600/3600, but I think the VRM is still good enough?)
Now since he may upgrade the CPU to a non-iGPU, I gave a little bit more juice to the PSU and chose a decent Corsair CX550 (Non-modular - they were out of stock)
How is it overall?
Thanks
