Question Is this a good set up?

[huntersw2]

Been ask to help with a new build but been awhile since i kept up with pc parts the budget i was told is around $800 is this a good set up for 1080p gaming for sports games, american truck simulator 2 and a few of the newer titles?

If you can spend another 40; move to a WD black.

If you can spend another 70 to 100; SSD

Assuming you need 2 TB.

I'd certainly try to avoid spinning drives...but your budget may be very tight?

Absolutely needs an SSD.

Yeah agree with above ssd is really better with gaming computers and seems many people are moving away from hard drives onto ssd. They make loading times much better. Your motherboard will have nvme m.2 and you can just put it in without wires

Thank you all for replying budget is pretty tight and if i need to shave money off would a amd RX 6600 be a suitable replace to a gtx 36000

Get a cheap USB flash drive, download Windows Installer and use the free version of Windows for now.
