Hello,,
I am going to be building a new gaming/streaming PC. Because of the cryptocurrency maniacs, GTX 1060/RX 570, 580 prices going haywire, I need you guys to tell me if this is the cheapest possible build in the current situation.
I am located in Bangalore and if anybody can point me to anything cheaper, please let me know. Thanks in advance guys.
