Hey everyone! I'm from India and currently building my PC with the following specs:
- Cooler Master 550W v2 - ₹2200
- Corsair 1x16GB 3200MHz RAM - ₹5600
- Seagate 500GB HDD - ₹1800
- GIGABYTE B550M DS3H AC R2 Motherboard - ₹9945
I've already bought everything except the CPU, which I'm planning to get the Ryzen 5 5600GT. The issue is, I'm running short on my budget by about ₹5000. As a student, I'm looking for decent mid-range performance but I could really use some support or suggestions to make this work!

Buying used parts can be a good option. You might find some deals that can help you save. Just keep checking local marketplaces!
You might want to consider switching your motherboard to an A520M; it could save you quite a bit. Also, try going for 2x8GB RAM sticks instead of a single 16GB stick, as that would boost performance significantly. If money is tight, the Ryzen 4600G is a decent alternative that could work well for your needs too.
Are you looking for donations to buy your CPU?
Haha, not anymore! I’ve decided to go with a motherboard for ₹5500 and a CPU for ₹5000 instead.

It's tough, though. I've looked around and a lot of used CPUs are sold out right now, which is frustrating.
