Budget Gaming Build - Ryzen 5 1600AF, RX 570, 8GB RAM

💰 BUDGET GAMING SETUP 🔥

The customer contacted us about the design and composition of a PC build, which is one of the cheaper, but certainly not the worse. Yes, we build these as well. We have no lower limits on the price of a set, as do some who compose the most powerful sets. 😉
There is a belief that cheap sets do not pay off much, especially if they are still tailor-made, as this will also increase the price a bit. However, the opposite is true. The price of this set was just a little over 500€ (approx. 550$) and the performance of a similar pre-build PCs costs around 700€ in our country. Even such pre-build PCs often suffer from shortcomings such as lower quality of some components (most common PSUs), insufficient / noisy cooling, etc. It is also often a problem to improve them due to a weaker PSU, atypical case dimensions or BIOS limitations from the manufacturer. In our case, there is no such danger. Someone could just say "... meh, it still works". This may be true, but keep in mind that you don't usually buy a PC for a year or two, and you'll definitely have it for a few years before you upgrade it or replace it right away. We basically follow the motto "When we do something, we'll do our best and do it properly" and therefore we always strive for reliable components even in cheaper sets, where the budget is limited and the emphasis is mostly on performance itself, but we always try to find a reasonable compromise between performance and quality.

What do you think, we did it? 🤔
