So I'm thinking of getting a new PC to put in my room for a bit more privacy when gaming (my old one is in the living room). I already bought a decent entry-level graphic card, the Radeon HD 6850 and a power supply powerful enough to handle it and installed them into my old PC so I won't need to buy those. What I need are parts for the PC (excluding the two I mentioned above) that fits into my budget, or around 700 dollars, and a decent gaming keyboard, mechanical and/or backlit if possible. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thank you!!


Answer
I've been wanting to build a powerful, budget gaming pc lately. I did a little research and here are some cost effective parts.

Processor AMD FX-8350 Eight-Core - $174.15 - This processor consistently ranks high in performance and will not cost a ridiculous amount of money.

ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard - $94.99 - You need a compatible motherboard for your processor and this one has some nice features.

Kingston Hyper X Genesis 16GB Kit (4x4GB Modules) 2133MHz DDR3 Non-ECC CL11 DIMM XMP Desktop Memory - $114.99 - 16GB will easily handle all games currently on the market. I don't remember if these fit your motherboard, so you might want to doublecheck.

So you're 384.13 for the basics. You've probably already got a case, hard drive, dvd drive from your old computer. But if you wanted you could throw down for a new case with backlighting. But if I were you, I'd invest the remaining money into a SSD hard drive. Their capacities are low but their transfer rates blow traditional hard drives. If you want things to load up fast, this will give you the extra push.

Good luck!

What would I need to build a gaming PC?

I want to build a PC that can run a lot of Steam games. I currently have a HP S3200N (if you don't know its shit for games) I want to build one with a SD card drive too. Can anyone give me a list with an nVidia card and also including the disk drive preferably one that can burn Cd's. My budget will be around 600-700 dollars.


Answer
@Wes D - He says he is willing to build one himself. So let him. He'll save money, and you can't get a good PC for $600-700 on CyberPowerPC. Custom built ordered parts is the way to go.

Here's a rough part list. You should be able to get this for around $650.

CPU: FX 4100
GPU: AMD HD 6870
RAM: 4gb DDR3 1600
PSU: Quality 550-600w+
Mobo: AMD 970 Chipset
HDD: ~500gb 7200rpm
