Hello everyone, a few weeks ago I've posted about some parts that I have, but however I was told that some or all these parts won't work together, so I need some assistance. I first want to start out that I have about a $600 dollar budget, however I would like to keep hold of the parts that I do have and go from there do to some return issues. So again I listed the parts that I still have and would like to know where can I go have a computer that can at least run at 720p. Thanks

Power Supply: AK series SATA ATX 680W

CPU: AMD A4-7300 Richland dual core 4.0 GHz socket FM2 65W

GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 DirectX 12GV-N1050OC-2GD 2GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI express 3.0x 16 ATX Video Card

Motherboard:ECS KAM1-I (V1.0) AM1 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 HDMI Mini ITX AMD Motherboard

Hi there.

These parts are pretty much outdated. Except the GPU, I wouldn't keep anything else.

Added the M.2 as it will give you quite a bit of performance boost. Add a GTX 1060, 1070 or a 1080 in the future and you have a monstrous gaming PC :)

GTX 1050 will do for now.

I have never heard of the PSU and I am very reluctant to get one which haven't been professionally tested.

You can find most good, bad and "this will blow up in you face" PSUs HERE.
