$350-$400 Gaming PC for 2018

After a long wait AMD has finally released their Ryzen APUs. Both Ryzen 5 2400G and Ryzen 3 2200G are great for a budget build. So, I am presenting you a cheap and good $350-$400 Gaming PC.

CPU:
The CPU I have decided to go with is the Ryzen 3 2200G. It costs just $99 and is great for our build. It has the following features:-

• Built-In Radeon Vega 8 Graphics
• 4 Cores UNLOCKED
• Frequency: 3.7 GHz Max Boost
• Socket Type: AM4
• Thermal Solution: Wraith Stealth Cooler

 Motherboard:
The Motherboard I have chosen the MSI - B350 PC MATE ATX Motherboard. At the time of this writing, it only costs $55 after a $20 rebate. It has 4 DIMM Slots and supports up to 64 GB of memory. It has both Raid Support and Crossfire Support.

RAM:
Since DDR4 prices are over the head right now, I picked the cheapest 2x4 GB kit available. At the time of this writing, the cheapest 2x4 GB kit is the G.SKILL NT Series 8 GB (2x4 GB) kit. This ram is only 2133 Mhz but it can be overclocked up to 2666 Mhz.

Storage:
For storage, I went with a SanDisk SSD PLUS 240 GB SSD. It is fast enough for an SSD and costs about $69(LOL). If you want then you can add a Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD which is just $54 right now.

Case:
For the case, I went with a Cougar MX330 ATX Mid-Tower Case. This case just costs $24 and has good features for the price like 2 front USB 3.0 headers, high motherboard compatibility, etc.

PSU:

For the PSU, I have chosen the EVGA BT 450W 80+ Bronze Certified PSU. It is from a reputable brand and can provide more than enough power to our system. It costs just $20.

Benchmarks:-

Cinebench R15 Multi-Threaded : 581

3D Mark Firestrike : 2751

Witcher 3 : 34.1 FPS

Doom : 23.0 FPS

CSGO : 114.5 FPS
