What should I get?

[Idczt87]

I am thinking of building my own computer. I want at least 8gb of ram, 1T hd, and a good grafics card. If most of the parts could be from amazon that would be helpful. My price range is $500-$600 thank you

where do you live?
what is the PC for?
what parts you need to buy and parts you already have?

At your price point this is the best I can do. Increase the price to at least $800 for anything I'd want.

I live in the U.S
The PC is for browsing and gaming
I'm building for the first time so I don't have any parts

For the Ram and storage, I am in england so this is slightly guesswork, I would say and extra $50, then for an i5 $200, they are slight guesses though 🙁
