On a $500 budget? Not even close. Granted, $500 isn't going to get you a whole lot, but it can be done. Will update after seeing what I can do.

It is good. You can buy new monitor also. And this pc will last longer if use correctly.
1 most important think x370 boards are support 1st gen ryzen you have to update latest bios to work on 2nd gen ryzen. Or you can go with
Gigabyte x470 aorus gaming ultra. Which definately support 2nd gen chip without any bios update .

You are missing the point. You can't buy half of that on a $500 budget.

This is still over the budget if you add an OS, but, you can borrow and install Win10 and not activate it, it'll just not update I believe and be annoying with asking you to purchase. Things you'll want to do with this: Add another 8gb stick of Ram and run dual-channel. 8gb will get you by, but certainly not ideal. You'll want a better Cpu eventually, but the budget is severely limited. An SSD would be nice, but not in the budget. You also might need an optical drive if you don't have one to install Win10, but those are about 15 or 20 dollars.

If you cannot afford an SSD go for a HYRBID 3.5" drive. It costs a little more than the WD, but its a lot faster, almost SSD speed. It will feel like an SSD.

Sure, it's faster. Of course, you can't actually game on it because it doesn't have a video card, but it's faster. Let me put that into perspective. You can't even play Minesweeper because it doesn't have a graphics card or chipset.

$500 is extremely tight, and if you absolutely have to buy an OS you are pretty much screwed. Mine will only work if you can borrow an install disc.

That build has no integrated graphics, and no graphics card. You will not be able to get any sort of video output with that build.

Also, poor PSU.

Assuming the OP doesn't need to purchase OS or peripherals with that budget, the best I could do was:

looking to build a gaming pc but cant decide on what parts to get.

For that low of a budget your going to be better off buying a used PC.

 

[Finstar]

I'd rather opt for this:
You'll get a LOT better cpu (than the Pentium), SSD, 16GB of RAM and overall a lot better platform for upgrades.
The minus being lack of discrete gpu, Which can be bought later on when budget allows it.
The integrated Vega 8 will do good until then.

Trying to help, but a few things could use some clarification. Do you have monitor/keyboard/mouse? What games are you trying to play and on what settings? Are you going to want to do any streaming or rendering?
