Hey everyone! I'm a beginner looking for some advice on my first PC build. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed trying to compare different components like CPUs and GPUs. I aim to use my PC mainly for casual gaming and occasional streaming. I plan to play games like Minecraft, Elden Ring, Dead by Daylight, and League of Legends. I've put together a build [here](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/b9Bdcx), and I'm looking to buy most parts used. However, I've heard it's not a good idea to buy the motherboard, memory, or power supply used. My budget is around $500-$800. Any tips would be super helpful, and I'm also unsure about what case to get. Thanks a bunch!

With an $800 budget, you could buy brand new parts and play any game you like without issues. A used CPU might be a good option since they’re often half the price. I’d recommend getting new everything else, though. By the way, do you have a monitor? The resolution and refresh rate are super important and could affect your build.
Yes, I have a monitor. It’s an LG 23.8" LED. I'm open to getting a new one if needed. Why do you think it’s better to buy everything else new?
