In my last post I stated that the budget was under $500. However, as this machine will be used by my girlfriend once I have built my main rig (in the fall/winter), I decided that it could use a little extra budget. I am happy that I was able to stay within the $500-$550 range that I mentally anticipated.
I was able to pick up a used Cooler Master ML240L RGB liquid cooler for $65, as well as a used EVGA G5 650W fully-modular power supply for $100 incl. taxes on eBay. As it stands, the build is currently as follows:
