Hello, I am wanting to build my own PC, I have found some hardware that I think would be good and would like some opinions/ratings on the overall build. If you chose to rate it, please do so out of 10 and feel free to explain why you give it that rating!

If you think anything is incompatible feel free to let me know!

This PC will be used for mostly gaming, and watching videos!

(This may or may not effect what I chose to buy, I am just wanting honest opinions on the PC before I do order the hardware)


Motherboard: MSI B350 PC MATE
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 2200G
GPU: GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1060 Windforce OC 3GB
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB DDR4 (2 x 8GB)
SSD: Crucial MX500 250GB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD
HDD: WD Blue 1TB SATA 6 Gbps 7200 RPM 3.5 Inch Desktop Hard Drive
Power Supply: Corsair CX550 550W ATX12V 80 Plus Bronze
Case: CORSAIR Carbide SPEC-01 (Not sure if the case matters at all but whatever)


Disclaimer: I have not yet purchased any hardware listed above, and am trying to stay under $800. Also, this doesn't mean that I will change the hardware, I am just wanting honest opinions on the PC before I do order any of the hardware

(PS: I'm new to the "posting part" of forums, I've always either only replied to them or just read them for help on other things, so if this is in the wrong category feel free to tell me!)
 
It really depends on the specific games you are trying to run and if you will plan to upgrade in the future or not. Check the system requirements and if possible follow the Recommended hardware section.
 
I would give Your system an 8/10 for the price.
At $837 you can get a better B450 motherboard that will work out of the box. Better 6GB 1060, better quality power supply and better case.
