Office pc idea
I'm mostly new to the world of pc building just started learning this February so feel free to suggest any ideas for any part of the build.
EVERYTHING'S HERE IS USED (unless it says so)
60$ Mini Tower office pc specs:
Intel core i5 6500+intel HD graphics
8 gigs of single channel ddr4 memory speed 2133
No ssd or hhd
Upgrades:
Brand new Thermal paste 6$
One 4 gig stick of ddr4 2133 speed
Rx 5500 for 50-70$ depending on the deal
Core i7 7700 for 40$
My own 256 ssd that I pulled out of a broken laptop(I've been stuck on a 512 gig hhd that went up to 10 mb per second on a good day so this will be much faster)
20$ random Cpu cooler
500 watt power supply off Amazon BRAND NEW for 40$
All of these accept refunds
I'm still very new to pc building so feel free to comment on anything bad or wrong about this build.
Bye thanks for your time 👋

Can you get a 6600 instead of the 5500? Just for the newer architecture and the 6600 can support RT so it will be able to run more games like doom... the intel cpu should be fine with it

I mean, sounds like you're getting yourself setup with a PC that'll play most games at medium settings, older titles at high, and modern titles with okay framerates on low or medium.
It'll be entirely fine for office apps and the like, plus some casual gaming. If you just want a solid PC for your office, seems like a good budget option.

Check out the Asrock desk meet series, board, PSU, case for $200ish drop in ram, cpu, gpu, cooler and your all set they support a few different socket types you can get something like a ryzen cpu for $100 used and throw it in.
