Hey I'm looking to buy a gaming desktop. The games I will be playing are CSGO and Minecraft, but I was thinking of starting a YouTube channel. I'm basically looking for the best pc to do it at a good 200+ FPS. If you have any suggestions please go ahead. My budget is 800$, not including Windows or any peripheral. Thanks!

Hey. Here's something I just build, check it and see if it pleases you:

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/7VHCHx it goes for about a little over 800$, maybe 810$ tops.

The price of the motherboard is not showing but I found it on newegg : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132229

Hope this helps. If you find this useful, select it as a solution so people with the same problem as you can find it...

A good starter build that will easily fill your requirements. Add a Samsung 850 EVO Series 250GB SSD ($77) later on to store the OS and any frequently used applications or games. This will decrease boot up times as well as loading times in your most used applications and games.
