Hi,
I want to get a new PC that will be used for gaming, school work, browsing and general stuff. There's a computer shop near where I live that builds them for basically nothing, you just have too pay for the parts. What are the best specs I could get on a gaming PC for around $1500?
Answer
This is a list for a PC im going to build- I'm getting everything from newegg.com you can go there and read the reviews for all the components. This build should run every game on max settings and is great for video editing which I do.
Corsair Carbide Series 500R
Intel Core i7-3770K Processor
Corsair Hydro Series H100i Extreme Liquid/Water CPU Cooler
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard
Corsair Vengeance 16GB Desktop Memory Module Kit
ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 Intel Series 7 Motherboard
CORSAIR TX Series CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V v2.3 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified
EVGA GeForce GTX 670 FTW 2GB
Samsung 840 Series 120GB Solid State Drive
Lite-On IHAS124-04 Internal DVD Writer
TP-LINK Dual Band Wireless N900 PCI Express Adapter, 2.4GHz 450Mbps/5GHz 450Mbps, IEEE 802.1a/b/g/n, WEP/WPA/WPA2 (Wifi adapter)
This build is about $1600 depending if the parts are on sale. I know you are looking for a $1500 build but this list could be changed. You could get a cheaper case. Or downgrade the video card and that should get you to $1500. I'm also getting the hard drive later since I will be getting a 120gb SSD so that saves me $99. Hope this helps and good luck =)
(I just ordered everything today im super excited!!!!!)

Answer
For gaming, the 2nd build is better because it has a 6970 rather than a 560Ti. But that's the only reason. The 2500K in the first build is superior to the Phenom in the 2nd build BUT, the Phenom II X4 980 is no slouch and can easily handle modern games.
An even better build would be the first one, the Intel edition and stick a 6970 in it instead of the 560Ti.
There is zero evidence that AMD chips have to be paired with AMD cards or that Intel chips work better with NVIDIA cards.
Anyone who tells you that AMD cards perform better with AMD CPU's and Intel CPU's perform better with NVIDIA graphics cards is talking straight out of their @rse.
*looks down* Are you a clown? Only the first generation of Intel's i series chips supported triple channel ram and there was no performance benefit in triple over double. Stop making sh!t up.
