Hey guys, I wanted to buy build and sell a computer to make some cash and I put together these parts on Newegg, I was hoping you could tell me if they’re decent in terms of price for performance, and if there are any better deals out there. This system should be able to take some overclocking, although I dnno how much I want to OC it. Also I’d like to know what kind of PSU (keep in mind, budget gaming system) I’d need for these parts:

I haven’t put the case or any fans in yet because I don’t know what kind of PSU or cooling I need (might be able to buy with case?)
I do plan to OC this system (my first time though haha) and price it accordingly, but I need a lot of advice on these matters.
