Xiao Bian recently posted an article about building a PC under certain budget constraints. One of the readers reached out asking for help in putting together a decent rig using only the money he earned during his summer break. Xiao Bian was really inspired by this person's initiative and decided to share two different configurations tailored to fit within the 2000 and 2500 yuan budget ranges.
For the first setup, which costs around 2000 yuan, Xiao Bian recommended going with an Intel Pentium G4620 processor paired with an ASRock H110M-DVS R3.0 motherboard. The total cost for these components comes to 844 yuan. He also suggested adding 4GB of Kingston DDR3 1600 memory for 229 yuan, a Seagate Barracuda 2TB hard drive for 439 yuan, a CPU cooler for 60 yuan, a mouse for 50 yuan, and a power supply unit for 200 yuan. This brings the total to 1822 yuan. While the integrated graphics perform quite well, the system lacks sufficient multi-core performance and has slightly weaker memory performance.
The second configuration, costing approximately 2500 yuan, features an AMD Ryzen3 1200 processor on an MSI A320M PRO-VD motherboard, priced at 349 yuan. Memory-wise, Xiao Bian went with Kingston DDR4 2400 4GB x 2 modules totaling 498 yuan. The storage consists of a Seagate Barracuda 2TB hard drive for 439 yuan and a Colorful HD7770 1G D5 graphics card for 180 yuan. Additional peripherals include a mouse for 50 yuan and a power supply unit for 300 yuan. This adds up to 2595 yuan. This setup offers stronger multi-core performance and better dual-channel memory capabilities, making it a more balanced choice overall.
Xiao Bian emphasized that upgrading the memory to 8GB in dual-channel mode would significantly enhance performance, especially given the importance of memory bandwidth for multi-core processors. However, due to budgetary constraints, he opted for the 4GB setup. Additionally, since the Ryzen3 1200 doesn't come with integrated graphics, an independent GPU is essential. For this reason, Xiao Bian allocated extra funds towards a higher-quality PSU to accommodate future upgrades.
In both configurations, Xiao Bian prioritized cost-effectiveness while ensuring that the builds remain future-proof. He also highlighted the importance of buying new components for beginners lacking technical expertise, as pre-owned parts carry higher risks of failure. Despite his own experiences with troubleshooting and repairs, Xiao Bian remains committed to helping others build reliable systems within their means.
Xiao Bian hopes that by sharing these configurations, other readers might chime in with even more affordable solutions or valuable feedback to assist this aspiring builder. After all, community support is key in fostering learning and innovation among tech enthusiasts.
