I'm looking to put together a budget PC build with a target price of under $1000. I previously posted about this and received some great input, so I wanted to refine my request. My goal is to play games like Battlefront 2, Forza 5, and Need for Speed, as well as future titles. I'm aiming for good performance, ideally at 1080p to 1440p for those games. I'm also curious about what power supply I should go for; I'm thinking around 550W. Here's my build link for reference: [https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BWN2Lc](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BWN2Lc).

Since you're planning to buy later, I suggest keeping an eye on hardware sales events, especially for a solid graphics card. A 16GB card will be awesome for your gaming needs. Aim for something like a GTX 1660 Super or similar in that price range when you pull the trigger!
No worries about the typo! For a good balance of cost and performance, I'd recommend looking for deals on key components like the CPU and GPU. Also, consider checking out sales over the next few weeks; you can often find great discounts if you plan ahead.
Exactly! Waiting for sales can help you snag better parts for the same budget; I did that last build and saved a ton!
Good call on the 16GB card! Those perform really well for the games you're looking at.
