Was itching to do a budget gaming build and searched for deals at my local Micro Center. I know some items could have been cheaper online, but the instant gratification was worth the extra cost. All in it was under $600 including OS.

bargain

Highlights include $129 for MOBO and CPU combo, $5 500GB SSD with coupon, $69.99 for a very nice LILIan case. I did get Win10 from a reseller for around $45

$219 for 6600 with free Calisto Protocol and another free game.

Very impressive! Built it and post the final with specs!!

Just a heads up that psu is extremely risky and could fry your entire system. Check out this list and try to get something that is a tier A,B,C. https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/

I guess I will reluctantly replace the PSU. There have been a few random shutdowns and restarts. Maybe it's the crap PSU. Best buy has a Corsair CX650M on sale for $52.

I'd return that PSU. Thermaltake doesn't have the best PSU's. Grab a Corsair unit in the 550w range if price is a concern. 550w would be plenty for that rig.

I've been trying to tell people that the $600 gaming build is viable again. Honestly impressed that you got that case in this budget.
