Hey budget gamers. I'm not rich but save up your lunch money, work a few easy part time jobs and you will get your gaming set up done and ready. They're really easy to build now compared to back in the 2000's. There wasn't a way to tell compatible & incompatible parts then as with now. Go to PCpartpicker.com.

I started with a 750ti & i5-2500k I bought second hand for $350(luckily it wasn't a scam) back in 2015. I worked my way up, bought and sold my builds and hustled for a GTX 1080Ti I7-8700K Which are still good for today's standards, they do well in benchmarks at 95th percentile with a 110% bench.

I've never been a PC masterrace elitist, I hated those those types. I've never wanted those 4k 240FPS MULTI SCREENED builds. I found them to be overkill and I felt the money is better spent on my girlfriend, family or dog rather than no-lifing on a computer.

To be honest it is kinda late to get a gaming PC because of all these disgusting miners... Now the very 1080Ti I mentioned used to cost 400 secondhand now costs 1000 SGD.

I really recommend getting a newly prebuilt one or a second hand one (make sure the seller has good reputation and authentic stat rating not made by bots)
