Computer Building
I have recently got a budget for a gaming computer and I need a bit of help making a part list due to me being a complete newbie at hardware. I have a budget of $1000 but I prefer going over.
I originally had a part list that was worth $800 but since I got an extra $200, I want to incorporate the extra in there. This was my old part list: http://puu.sh/ol4Qt/c9432d7b39.png I was thinking of upgrading the case, motherboard and RAM, but upgrading the motherboard pretty much means an entire new list of parts it seems. |
Sorry, I'm a noob at these things too, but I got a question for you. I'm assuming you have 8 GB of RAM since you seem like a pretty heavy PC gamer, so why do you have to upgrade your RAM? Isn't that enough to play pretty much any games? Unless you're trying to make videos and stuff.

get the 390 over the 970 unless it's a really good deal
|
Ditto on the 390 over the 970, also.. anyone making in this day and age should have a ssd, especially with a 1k budget, trust me you will want it.

They tried to **** folks over with the whole 3.5GB debacle and the card is still so expensive while not outperforming the 390. In Sweden the 390 is almost always cheaper than the 970 anyway, but that might be different in the US/Canada. |
I prefer the 970 but whateverrr
|
I'm pretty convinced on replacing the HDD with an SSD (and using a external HDD for games/programs) and replacing the 970 with a 390.

How about this part list? I might need a better power supply. Any suggestions?
