You will find that your needs & goals are quite similar to those of others, and should be able to find discussion about many different builds in your pricerange. I know I've personally helped with more $450-700 recommendations than I can possibly remember. as for the actual component assembly, take it slow and don't sweat it. Youtube is your friend, watch a few "assemble a gaming machine/assemble a HTPC" videos and you'll get the hang of it. I'll be sure to pop back around to offer some commentary once you've got a better idea of your build & needs Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/208918-finished-my-build-now-assisstance-needed/#findComment-1395104 Share on other sites More sharing options...
