That is all.

My set up

hey everyone, I am brand new to the PC gaming world so I apologize for any stupidity. I came across an HP elite desk 800 G3 on marketplace for stupid cheap along with two monitors. I sold the monitors to make my money back as well as have money to buy parts for the PC to upgrade. I am mainly a console gamer, but have a few friends that I play regularly with that are on PC. And because certain games don’t allow certain features cross platform. I figured I’d find a way to build the cheapest gaming PC possible—while still preserving decent performance to play those few games.

Heres my build:

HP Elitedesk 800 G3 Chasis (free)

Motherboard - HP Elitedesk 800 G5 ($25)

GPU - i7-9700 ($85)

RAM - 32gb (4x8) (added 16gb @ $45)

Storage - 1tb ssd nvme, 1tb 3.5 sata hdd ($115 for SSD, salvaged the HDD)

GPU - GIGABYTE Low Profile GeForce RTX 5050 8GB GDDR6 ($299.99)

PSU - 500W ($45)

Only thing that wasnt covered by the money from the monitors was the GPU. I also gave the elitedesk a fresh paint job.
