For your STRIX 970 with a tight budget, look for affordable compatible components that work well together. Choose a budget-friendly CPU like an Intel Core i3 or AMD Ryzen 3, pair it with a suitable RAM module (at least 8GB), and opt for an entry-level graphics card such as the MSI MEG or AORUS A320. This setup should keep costs low while ensuring smooth performance.

Tell me your intentions for the PC, the type of monitor you use, your budget range, and where you are located.

I own an HL225DNB monitor in the UK and have a budget of about £150. If I can't afford more, my limit would be around £200.

Yes, you'll require storage, a case, and a PSU.

I'm not sure, but the EVGA 500W power supply seems capable.

does it include a part identifier? I’d suggest something like this: PCPartPicker Part List: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/bjNRcY CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2 GHz 6-Core Processor (£86.70 @ CCL Computers) Motherboard: MSI B450M BAZOOKA V2 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard (£64.99 @ CCL Computers) Memory: Patriot Viper 4 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory (£33.38 @ CCL Computers) Overall: £185.07 Prices cover shipping, taxes, and any available discounts Generated by PCPartPicker 2019-11-28 16:55 GMT+0000 if £185 seems high, you could opt for a Ryzen 3 1200 which would save £40 but offer less performance, so I strongly recommend the R5 1600.
