Budget gaming pc build (Recommendation required)

Hello everyone, hope you all are doing well!

So I am considering to get a PC and budget is not that high. I have decided to go with the below configuration and I would really like to know your opinions about the same. Please let me know if the below configuration makes any sense or should I consider something else.

I am assuming with this build I should be able to play all the current popular games at least on medium or high settings. Also, another thing that I would like to know is that how long a gtx 1050 ti will suffice? Will it be able to handle all the upcoming games or should I consider gtx 1060 ?

I5 8th gen 8400
gtx 1050 ti 4 gb
GIGABYTE B360M D3H
Kingston SSDNow A400 240
Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR4
Western Digital WD10EZEX 1TB
Corsair VS550 550 .
Corsair Carbide Series 100R CC

Thanks in advance 🙂

Tbh, it could be better, which country are you buying the components in? and what sort of budget (in your currency) are you trying to stay within?

If you need to stay under 50,000:

You would need to make sure the motherboard has the latest BIOS prior to installing the CPU, any shop should be able to help with that unless the box is labelled "Ryzen 2000 ready".

Alternatively if you can spend a bit more:

Can you please suggest any build which includes intel processor? I specifically want to go with i5 8th gen. I am okay if I have exclude any other part to bring down the budget. I can also try to put a stay on graphic card. I am assuming it should go down by December and at that time I can go ahead with the purchase.

Make this thread again in December when you're ready to purchase.

You should come back and ask in December as Ben said.
Prices and availability changes almost constantly, and if we make you a list now, those are the best prices RIGHT NOW. We can't guarantee that they would be the same, or better in December.

What he means to say is that he will get a PC assembled without a graphics card so he is requesting for recommendation after excluding the GFX card, "for now".

And afterwards, in December, he can go ahead with the purchase of only the card.

OP, correct me if I am wrong.

Exactly my point! I am glad at least someone understood what I meant to say.

I wish I could wait till December but the problem is my old laptop is dead and I am currently using a system on rent. I can't keep paying rent till December, it won't make sense. so I was saying that I can skip on graphic card and consider purchasing it whenever the prices are the cheapest.
What time is best to build a pc? During black Friday and those cyber deals?
i think the 1050 will be fine i still have a 750ti and i can run any game i have tried without any issues.

When did you get it? The important question is: will it be able to run more games in future?

Cause the difference is that you already have it and perhaps utilized it at its most and he is about to have it.
