Hello,my dudes.
I'm planning on building my first PC, a Gaming PC to be specific, and was wondering if you could overlook my desired parts and express your opinion/give some feedback.
Here we go:
CPU: Pentium G4560, 3.5 Ghz, Dual Core, LGA1151 Socket.
GPU: Gigabyte G1 Gaming GeForce GTX1050Ti
Motherboard: ASRock B250M Pro4 mATX
Case: Segotep Halo ATX Mid Tower Case
RAM: Undecided
PSU: Zalman ZM400-GVN 400W ATX PSU
HDD: WD 1TB Blue Edition
Let's say I have the budget of $700NZD+
I already have the case, I'm just looking for the components/PC Parts to put inside of it.

Holy shit this is the first non-retarded buying list I've seen on here, like ever.

Thank you, my dood.
I would swap that CPU out for a i3-6100. The i3 might sound bad, but it is really good. Your GPU might bottleneck it though, idk. Go for 8GB of memory, from a reputable company preferably (Corsair/Kingston/G-Skill). Maybe this: https://www.amazon.com/Kingston-HyperX-2133MHz-Non-ECC-HX421C14FBK2/dp/B00TY6A1P0
O shit I just noticed your budget, hey fellow NZer. I recommend buying from 1stwave technologies, they are the cheapest but they're online only, otherwise go to PB tech if you can. A bit dodgy but the best service I've found.
For better feedback (reddit, I know) go to r/buildapc, they give really good feedback
Also, same person, that PSU is shite. Spend some money on a reputable one, not some cheap one. If it kills all your parts, you aren't saving money, you're wasting it.The cheapest one I would trust is probably this: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Supply-Warranty-100-B1-0500-KR/dp/B00DZ6R9GE

Thank you, mate. I'll surely take your advice in consideration.
>>333153
Yeah, I wouldn't.
+66% cost for +6% performance? Not a brilliant idea, if you ask me. G4560 is an i3 in everything but name and pricetag.
>>333155
Yeah, no.
You just showed what you knew earlier. A PSU is a PSU, and an overpriced PSU is a PSU just overpriced. If cheap PSUs killing your PC were a thing, all those Dells and Lenovos would have self-destructed by now.
OP specs a decent, sensible PC, and you're like noooooo he's not spending enough on components that don't contribute to performance in the slightest; he's broken the gaymer code reeeeee
