http://pcpartpicker.com/p/25fBL this is the build someone gave me, I was just wondering if this was the best build I could get for $450.

If you know any better please let me know

That's actually pretty good. Keep in mind you have $40 in mail in rebates there so it's going to be closer to $500 when you make the buy.

Also, remember to leave room to pay for a copy of Windows if you need it.

thank you also at the bottom of partpicker it says MSI 970A-G43 ATX AM3+ Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the Cooler Master Elite 350 ATX Mid Tower Case w/500W Power Supply does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports.

will I need to worry about that

You'll be fine. All that means is that your motherboard supports USB 3.0 but your case won't have any. It won't impact performance. You'll still have 3.0 ports on the back of the case that go straight into the motherboard.

The second build isn't better and should only be considered if the first is out of your price range.

Okay thanks I'm getting the first one. Also if the front panel of the tower doesn't have usbs will the motherboard fit, just making sure for my first build
