Hello guys ,

please help with gaming build for pc with monitor and Operating system under $ 350 . thanks before .

Monitor is at least 100 bucks, windows 10 can be ran for free.
250 bucks for a gaming PC not going to happen.

Might get lucky and find something used.

Not Possible.

well guys , what if the bugdet under $ 500 ??? could it happen ...

500-600 is possible for a modest PC imo.

Here's a question: what games do you want to run, what settings do you want to run them at, and what performance are you fine with?

Also where do you live? You don't have to be specific, the country is enough.

@JCarax : help me with that 500-600 build

@hotaru.hino : i want to run FF VII remake with 1080p on 60 fps stable , highest quality as possible bro .

To be fair, you could build up a used system for ~$350. You would probably be considering something like one of the Dell Optiplex to "gaming" PC conversions. A plain Jane 24" 1080/60 monitor should be doable.

Check "Toasty Bros" on YT, and I think their storefront is "PC Bros", this is their market.

I tried to make one but it ended up being 830$ 😱
You can technically go cheaper on all parts but I'm not sure if sub 700$ is possible with the monitor, unless you can find a very cheap 60hz one.

If we're doing all new parts, you're not going to get this with the budget you're proposing.

Even if you go with a used system like mentioned before, you'll still be short on the budget because those things usually never come with a decent enough GPU or power supply (which is something you'll have to replace/upgrade), a decent combo for either would easily go over $300.

EDIT: Honestly, if you're willing to cough up $500, get a PS5 instead.

Agreed... PS5 or Series X. Not gonna get much of a PC for $500.

Why not? If you want a machine specifically for gaming, a console will get you there for the budget you're proposing.

At the minimum for a gaming PC, I would argue you need to budget at least $800 just for the computer. Otherwise, the value proposition doesn't make much sense.

Read the post above this one.

You aren't getting a gaming PC at that budget. This is 2023... not 2013.

This is as cheap as I could find, give or take a few items. You could go less expensive on the SSD, but would be less capacity. This is with no graphics card, and I could not include a monitor either.
All from Newegg, most selected for free shipping. A few items have promotions to save a few $

Fractal Design Core 1000 M-ATX $29.99 ($8 shipping)

Refurb MSI A520M-A Pro M-ATX $49.99 (backordered to the 16th)

Ryzen 5 5600G $134

MSI Spatium M.2 2280 NVMe 1TB $34.99

G Skill Ripjaws V 2x8GB DDR4 3200 $37.99 (not ideal speed, but decent RAM for price)

EVGA 400 N1 400W PSU $41.64 (total house fire, but decent units not in budget)

This is $336.59 minus taxes, rebates. Should be worthwhile for playing at 720 until you can save more money. You will need to hit some folks up for a spare monitor, and of course keyboard and mouse.
You budget does not allow for OS either, but you can use W10 unregistered.
