Re: Need help building a desktop gaming computer

You definitely aren't "future proofing" much on a 500-$600 budget. You're going to be limited on what you can do with such a small amount.

CPU and GPU are going to take up most that amount.

Even a lower end locked i5 is going to run you ~$170. That might be the cheapest.

You might have to look into getting maybe an AMD FX-4100 processor to save on money.

Whatever price-range he is in, Intel is the right answer, still.

That's true, I guess an i3 would be a nice setup also.

It gets tougher building a gaming PC with such a low amount of money.
