Will

Hello, so next week I am going to buy parts for my gaming pc build and I was wondering if this is a good setup. I will be running games such as Battlefield 3, Black ops 2, Skyrim, GTA4, Far Cry 3 and Starcraft 2.

Case: Corsair 300r
Motherboard: MSI Z77A GD45 gaming editon
CPU: Intel i7 3770 LGA 1155
RAM: Corsair Vengence 8gb(2x4)
HDD: Western Digital 500gb 7200RPM
PSU: Corsair TX750
GPU: NVIDA Geforce GTX 760 ti 2gb.

Honest opinions please. Thanks.

Answer
Its a very good pc but if you are ready to spend so much why not add an 128 gb ssd along side that hard drive for faster loading and a much faster boot.

What do you think of my Gaming PC build?

What do you think of my strictly gaming pc build? Here are the specs.

HAF 912
ECS H61H2-M2
i3-2120
Seasonic S12II 620 620w
EVGA GTX 570
G.Skill 8gb 1333 Value Series
CD/DVD Burner
Windows 7

How well will it perform? Will it max out modern games? Keep in mind this system is strictly for gaming. Thanks!

Answer
You're in good shape, but for running games on max detail I'd recommend upgrading to a Core i5 2400 or 2500. There's almost no difference between the Core i5 2500 and Core i7 2600 in games, so paying more for the i7 isn't worth it for gaming. And for playing on HIGH settings, the Core i3 2120 is fine. But when you push to ultra settings in really intense titles, the CPU starts to play a bigger role. Basically in the scenarios where you'd take full advantage of a GTX 570, you'll want a bit more CPU horsepower behind it.

If your budget is tight, go with 4gb of RAM and a Core i5 2300 or 2320. At ultra settings it would pay off. Maybe consider the 448 core GTX 560 Ti classified edition instead of the GTX 570. That would save enough to upgrade your CPU. The 448 core model is really a lower-end GTX 570, based upon the same GPU.

What do you think of my Gaming PC build? here are the specs

HAF 912
Zotac GTX 560 ti 448
i5-2320 (don't have the money to upgrade to a 2500k)
ECS H61H2-M2
Seasonic 620w
G.Skill 8gb Value Series
DVD Burner/ Windows7

What do you think? Will it max out modern games? Thanks!

Answer
looks real good, and you kidding me, a gtx 560ti 448 can max ANY game there is on the market at 1920x1080 pretty easily...

But here are things i would change:
motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157241
cheaper and better, i wouldnt get ecs boards.

the psu is alittle overkill, you can drop it down to like a 500-550W and could probably save some money.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139027

and as for the graphics card i would stick with asus, evga or msi
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121480
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127615

the MSI twin frozer II/III and the asus DC/DCII have the best cooling solutions, for higher end cards, they are the way to go for sure.


I i would love for someone to tell me which game this card isnt going to max settings on?
the gtx 560ti 448 is pretty much an equivalent to gtx570 in performance. So again tell me what game in this world a gtx570 can not max settings on? and dont say derp for max settings the resolution needs to be set to max, most people dont play on resolutions above 1920x1080.

EDIT: jim...
that case is a really good case, idk wtf you are smoking. Ya the antec v3 is better, but that case is $110...
how can you possible recommend an antec psu over seasonic... guess who makes both antec and corsair? seasonic does...
evga's warranties for most of their cards are a lifetime warranty (lifetime of the card not your life...), meaning what ever they say the lifetime of the card is, is how long you have a warranty for. So if the card has an expected lifetime of 15years, you have a 15year warranty.
And lastly why would you get pro/ultimate? xp mode? windows 7 can run any xp software, it just cant run software that is older then xp (like win me,98 etc). Which i have no idea anyone in the world who need to run that old of software, except maybe cheap greedy businesses who wont upgrade software, which they probably pirated in the first place...

How exately does each computer part work for gaming? (computer gaming expert needed!)?

best gaming pc to build image

Q. Also what would be reccomended for a 2011 pure gaming pc build? Like how much RAM will I need/use and so on?

I will choose the best awnser on whichever one has the most information and is detailed, THANKS!!!

Answer
OS: 64-bit version of windows 7 (premium, pro, or ultimate)
RAM: AT LEAST 6 GB! not the 1gb that the other guy suggested. but yes, ddr3
CPU: any AMD quad- or hex-core with a speed above 3.5gHz or any intel i5 or i7
GRAPHICS: you do not need to spend $500. you can get a good ATI card for $100, and a fine one for $50 (search newegg for radeon 5450)
HDD: 500gb will probably cut it if you have a tight wallet, but you can most likely afford the extra FIVE DOLLARS to get a terabyte
SOUND: whatever you want. most motherboards these days have 5.1 or even 7.1 built in, so a separate card is most likely not necessary.

How much would a Gaming PC build cost?

Eric

So how much would a gaming PC build cost, which could play games such as dayz and bf4 with no lag at medium-high settings. Mainly looking at the , CPU, GPU, RAM, HardDrive.
Thanks.
I would do a range to about 1000$ or below.

Answer
The best CPU for gaming would be the the Intel 4670 for about $230 or you can get an AMD 8350 which will perform well for about $200. Generally its preference if you prefer AMD or Intel, AMD is generally the "Budget-Friendly" of the two.

For the GPU, I would suggest either a GTX 660 for 210-220 dollars or the GTX 660ti for about $300.

With Ultra settings the GTX can pull out an average of 53 frames per second and the GTX 660ti pulls about 65 frames per second. (Keep in mind this is ULTRA so medium-high settings should play at well over 60 FPS.

8 Gigs of RAM is all you need for gaming, that will come in at around 70-80 dollars max.

Harddrive, either a 1 or 2 TB HDD will be more than enough. The 2 TB Seagate drive I just bought was 90 dollars, so thats pretty cheap.
