DVDrw (maybe with Bluray if price is right)
24-27" monitor


purpose - WoW Legion, Web browsing, Sudden Strike 4, a newish FPS, and also so my kid can play her ROBLOX lol.
Case: My favorite NXZT 340/340 elite.
PSU: EVGA makes some good power supplies. I have 2. Go modular or semi modular.
CPU: go Ryzen like a 1600x and use the money saved for a better GPU.
Hard drive: Go with a NVME m.2 SSD like the Samsung 960 EVO 250 GB and by a mechanical 1TB HD for storage. Another option is to get a 512 GB SSD for storage.
