Trying to build my own gaming PC

Totally doable, as long as you don’t need everything to be this years model. The gen 2 Ryzens are wonderful and you can get a great deal on some 580’s or even 5700’s. I made a rough outline below of an example. I haven’t researched any of the parts individually, so you will want to for sure check out some reviews yourself.
