Don't get me wrong, I would love to if I had the budget, but I'm only 14 years old and work by mowing neighbors lawns (they don't ask me to do it often) , but I have part of a phone bill to pay for myself, sometimes after school i go with friends to lunch/dinner, and other expenses, I'm currently saving up money and have about $350 right now, and even though it's only $35, I'm still only 14 mowing people's yards. Budget is tight, thanks for the recommendation though and sorry for the long comment.

Ok I changed the SSD. Should be as reliable as ADATA. Upgraded you to a 1060 3GB which will get you closer to true 1080p gaming.

One thing I would recommend is not buying windows, you can actually use windows unactivated and the only thing you can't do is personalize stuff. Look into,it. If you get the money later you can always activate it.

I'm not sure about that SSD, as it is 32GB less then the SSD I chose, and I'm looking to install some beefy games, as for the GPU, I decided to go with the 1060, as it is only 5 or 6 bucks more. And last, Windows, I'm not to familiar with unactivated Windows, so for now, I'll stick to what I know. But I will research it in the future. Thank you for the help today !!
