[Gaurav_40]

Hi everybody, my name is gaurav and i'm building a pc i saw many videos on youtube and finally one of them won me. the following video described a build that was great for price and perfomance so i need you guys to take a look at this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_He-FBS06Y&t=264s

the build uses the following components:

ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1050 http://amzn.to/2gLYzGG
Intel i3 6100 @ 3.7ghz http://amzn.to/2hyVDdm
MSI H110M Pro-VD Intel Skylake http://amzn.to/2hQv7LM
Ballistix Sport 8GB DDR4 http://amzn.to/2hQC0gf
EVGA 430w http://amzn.to/2hIiIgS
WD Blue 1tb http://amzn.to/2hQIdbT
Zalman Z1 Neo ATX Case http://amzn.to/2iikMsk
Logisys LDXRM12C RGB LED http://amzn.to/2ifaHxh

my budget is less than $400 and my goal is to play GTA V at ultra or high settings with 1080p 40-60 FPS and most of the other titles with the same config.

so i wanted to know that is this the best config in this price range or it could be better? future-proofing is a main concern i can upgrade anything in future but for now this is the my limit so please guide me for my first build. thanks in advance

Update the power supply.
Don't waste money on RGB lights and a fancy case. You could go with a better CPU/GPU with what you save.

Also, mods please close duplicate thread.

first you don't know how to calculate, because your tally form YOUR build is 513$

my build beats your for the following reason
1. G4560 is same as I3-6100 for half the price
2. B250 board permits you later to upgrade to 6th or 7th gen I5 or I7 CPU without changing boards.
3. My Black edition is faster and warrantied longer then the blue series WD
4. I got the 1050TI 4gb video card instead of the 2Gb card you chose.
5. Much better power supply

all those things for 2$ more than your fancy RGB flashy box... I prefer performance over flashy lights. sorry

sorry my friend but i live in jaipur and also the ram you suggested is the 1866MHz version of HyperX Fury, but my motherboard Gigabyte GA-B250M-D3H supports only 2400MHz memory sticks. i would like to go Crucial BALLISTIX 1x8GB for rs.5000 from amazon. it's reliable, faster and because its 1x8 GB stick, i still have a extra DIMM slot to go for 16GB in future
