Helping a friend ascend. Building his first PC at 1080p @144Hz.
I'll be getting the CPU and Mobo bundled at my local microcenter for 50 dollars off. He has a keyboard, mouse and speaker set up already.
Can anyone find any glaring mistakes? I cautioned him about the Vega release, but he'd rather get set up sooner.
We won't be overclocking for the foreseeable future, but wanted to leave that door open, just in case.
Likely playing Rocket League, PUBg, and maybe Battlefront for starters.
