Good day everyone,
I've owned only one "gaming laptop" since 2011 which I bought after graduating High School; that was 7 years ago, so needless to say my laptop isn't doing so well in terms of keeping up with games (and for that reason I haven't been gaming for approximately 3 years)
I have no prior experience building a computer except from years of looking at pc builds I could never afford. With the R5 2400G as a entry level gaming setup this finally fits my budget a bit more.
I was wondering if anyone could give me some feedback or input on the parts I have chosen.
Reasons for my choices:
CPU: The APU option means I can add a GPU at some point when prices ever come down.
CPU Cooler: I know the CPU of choice comes with a cooler, but I really like the look of of Dual Tower Radiators.
Motherboard: Affordable good quality? From what I read
Memory: R5 2400G loves high speed RAM as far as I can tell from many videos, however will my MoBo and CPU handle the 3200?
Storage: I went for the 256GB because the price difference where I can buy it just doesn't justify the saving of getting the 128GB, same with the 2TB seagate
Case: So I can mount the CPU cooler upright and I like the compactness
Thanks in advance
