What you need to Build a Budget Computer 2018. $600 or less.

I am going to do a write up about what parts you could buy and throw together to make yourself a NICE, FAST, Computer for as little money as possible. If you just want a nice updated machine, to play a few games, NOT A POWERFUL GAMING RIG, then this is the PC for you.

I am going to set my Spending limit to $600 or less.

All parts will be linked to where you can purchase them at Newegg.com to make it very simple to build this exact machine for yourself, a friend, college student, or anyone else.
