Intel Pentium G4560 on Amazon: http://austin.tech/g4560 EVGA GTX 1050 on Amazon: http://austin.tech/gtx1050 MSI B250M PRO-VD on Amazon: http://austin.tech/b250m 8GB Kingston HyperX Fury on Amazon: http://austin.tech/8gbfury 120GB Kingston UV400 on Amazon: http://austin.tech/kingstonssd ? 430W EVGA PSU on Amazon: http://austin.tech/evga430w ? Thermaltake Versa H15 on Amazon: http://austin.tech/versa15 ? The ones with the checks I have. I know the GTX 1050 is kind of old but I have to do a budget build. The total of the parts I need is about $341 I currently have $240. I could have another $80 but I would like to keep that for other things. Link to comment

As for downgrade, I think you can get away with downgrading your power supply to 370 to 390-ish. Your choice in processor is lacking imo, I know its a budget but compared to the graphics card, its a joke. I would personally think about getting a better processor, doesn't have to be great, just something a little better than a pentium. 1 Link to comment

It looks like CS:GO will work but Fallout 4 is a no go. I would look into getting a bigger CPU if you could afford it in your budget. A lot of games are optimized for an i5 and you'll be able to go a long ways with a small change. I'm not sure when you plan to make your upgrade but it would be worth it to maximize what you can get now so that you won't have to worry about doing this in another year. That's the only issue with budget components is that they require upgrades sooner. Link to comment
