Since ram is so cheap these days, I was thinking about swapping out the ram in your $500 build (this) with this

with that be possible with the current mobo on the build?

Yeah, just make sure the mobo downclocks it.

You can keep the case, but keeping the CPU would be a big mistake. It would bottleneck your whole system.

I can configure one with a monitor if you like, however don't expect a gaming computer. It will cut down on your specs significantly.

@Ethan
I have ~$700. Would it be best to get it from that one cyberpower website? :o

I don't know if I trust my self to build one.

[captain blue]

Yeah, just make sure the mobo downclocks it.

[Mega-Bear]
