I'm building my first PC and I was wondering if it was any good

CPU: Pentium G4560
GPU: PowerColor AXR9 270 (TDHE)
MoBo: MSI B250M PRO-VD LGA 1151
PSU: Rosewill 450W 80+ Bronze
Case: Rosewill TYRFING Mid Tower
RAM: 8GB Team Elite Plus DDR4-2400 (1x8GB)
Storage: Toshiba 1TB 7200RPM
Cost: $339
 
Solid enough, but will dependL

Which 450W Rosewill PSU specifically?

Sky & KabyLAke benefit substantially from dual-channel RAM (2x4GB) - although it would limit your upgrade options in the future.

Any reason for the R9 270? Unless you already own it, a 1050TI would be a smarter purchase.


I don't see any way that comes to only $339 unless you own the GPU?
Without a GPU, with a (very likely) better quality PSU which is only $27...... I come to $285 with no GPU

The GPU was $40 so it was the cheapest decent GPU I could find and the Pentium G4560 was $70 but I may get the parts that you suggested. Thanks for the advice.
