[Jsaunders1185]

I'm trying to build a decent gaming rid on a budget. The system don't have to be a power house but i need a rig that i can upgrade over time to be a true power house system when my budget improves. Below is a setup that Ive come up with.... now mind you im way out of date with my technical knowledge i haven't build a system since socket 775 and im trying to get back to my up to speed any improvements to my build would be great any help would be greatly appreciated. Main uses will be watching/streaming video and gaming and budget im shooting for is about $700 and hopefully improve my budget later to build a high end gaming system.

Please answer the stickied "ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS FIRST!" so that we can help you better.

Though off the bat, the case, HDD, and PSU aren't good choices at all. The thermal paste really isn't needed.

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming and Everyday use.
2) What's your budget? 800.00 taxes and shipping not included depending on feed back might up my budget.
3) Which country do you live in? US Taylor , MI
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? Motherboard,CPU,Ram,HDD,PS,GPU
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Antec 300 unless i need to upgrade.
6) Will you be overclocking? Not with the current build my tech experience is outdated need to get up to speed before i even think about over clocking.
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor?
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Deciding if its smart to buy it piece by piece like right now i have enough saved for at least the motherboard.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard?Crossfire or SLI support,usb 3.0,SATA 6Gb/s,UEFI
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? no have a non legit version of windows 7 ultimate.

Ok you're gonna have to buy a new OS key then as it is utterly stupid to keep using an illegitimate version of Windows 7. So will the cost of OS come out of that $800 budget or are you going to raise your budget by $100 to cover the OS?

Please answer question 7 as that determines what GPU you will need.

Wait, you don't have the $800 right now? In that case, don't do it piece by piece, especially if you're not up to date on computer hardware. In addition, really no point in planning any kind of build if you don't have the money right then and there as hardware recommendations can change in as little as a week let alone however long it'll take you to save up that $800. So if you want up-to-date build list advice, please come back when you actually have that $800 in hand and when you're 1-2 weeks away from buying the hardware.

Again, no reason to plan a build far in advance of actual available funds and not a good idea to buy piece of piece if you're not up-to-date on computer hardware at all times.
