I'm going to build my pc. To make sure it's a little cheaper, I will order every single part at my home. What should I buy for a great gaming pc that MOSTLY has 60 or over 60 fps on every game and able to have graphics the highest, but still good performance. I want to play games like bf3, crysis 2 and the upcoming Watch dogs and Assassins creed 3 vert high or the highest, with still much performance and high fps rate. What kind of stuff should I put in my case (full tower)? I am thinking about a price from â¬1000 or â¬1500 or even â¬2000. But I'm going for somethig around â¬1500. (pc I have now will make something like â¬750,-)
Plz help! :D thanx!
Answer
Case: HAF X
HDD: 3tb seagate
SSD: Corsair Force GT 120gb sata 3 (For programs and windows, and maybe a handful of games you play the most)
Motherboard: A more expensive Asus Z77 Socket 1155 (Pick one)
Processor: i7 3770
PSU: at least 750W
DVD Drive: Your Choice
GPU: Nvidia 600 series (670+)
RAM: 8gb G.Skill 1886 MHZ (You will need to set it in the motherboard to use the 1886 mhz its made for, fortunately asus motherboards make this just the press of a button or 2, they've got a very user friendly BIOS)
In gaming computers the GPU is the most important part. 2nd Comes the hard drive. 3rd comes the Ram, 4th comes the Processor... however after i got my first i7, i couldn't live without having an i7. i5 just felt wrong. The processor IS the computer. The motherboard just connects everything to the processor, but a good motherboard is a must-have for your computer to perform well.
This just came off the top of my mind, i didn't look anything up except for the i7, i just remembered this stuff.
I was too lazy to provide you with links but if you're in the US or somewhere around there, i recommend buying stuff from Newegg.
That case, on top of looking gorgeous and being on wheels offfers support for up to 4 gpus and it supports those really big motherboards (cant remember name) and big psus aswell. and it supports watercooling and most importantly, without all this, its cooling capabilities with just fans are extreme, so if you ever want to overclock, the case is perfect for that. (but you'll need better than stock cooling on your processor at least for that.)
The GPU should run any game you'll want on max for the rest of this year (at least) and the 8gb of ram are enough, but enthusiasts that really use their computers for stuff more than just playing games, will want 12-16gbs today... 8gb today is 4 gbs a few years ago in comparison. you will never "Need" more than 8, and most likely never feel like you need more than 8.

Case suggestions for gaming PC?
Chris
Okay so I am completely new to PC gaming and I want to build my own PC. basically I am willing to spend up to $1500 on the whole thing. So I'm looking to have an upper scale PC. right now I'm looking at cases and I really can't decide. I know I want something with good air flow and plenty of room. I was looking at the cooler master storm Stryker or the cooler master HAF series. but I am open to anything. any help would be appreciated. Also if you can recommend other parts I may need.
I'm also confused on drive bays. some cases have up to 9 drive bays. what would I do with that many?
Answer
It depends on whether you want quality, looks or a bit of both, Lian Li make good quality cases, but are very simple in appearance and many don't support 240mm water cooling, The Haf series and cases like the Aerocool XPredator and Enermax Spinerex look really good and are full tower cases, supporting water cooling much better. It depends on what sort of case you are looking for.
Also, i would recommend getting parts such as a Nvidia GTX 680 GPU, Intel core i5 3570k processor and 8gb's of ram for a gaming pc. For a motherboard you could get something like the Asus P8Z77 or the Sabertooth Z77, its really up to your preferences.
Also you probably won't need 9 drive bays, they can be used by things like dvd burners fan controllers etc.
