Hey, I'm fairly new to the pc gaming scene but looking for some pretty decent tech. I've been doing a fair amount of research but could definitely do with a pro's insight.
Cpu= AMD Phenhom II or Amd Fx 8320
Motherboard=Asus p8z77
Gpu=Gigabyte Nvidia Gtx 650 ti
Ram= Corsair 8gb ddr3 1600Mhz
Psu= corsair 600w
feed back on my thoughts above would be greatly appreciated thank you
sincerely Sheppy
What is your bidget?? Are you overclocking too??
under £700 and possibly
^^well kinda lies... not really sure yet... haven't set a budget
Is the PC only for gaming?
Where are you putting it and is noise a problem?
Budget?
Screen size?
the p8z77 is a Intel socket 115 mobo.
What is the PSU model? 600w is probably overkill.
Check amazon for crucial ballistix. There are 4gb for £20.
EDIT: beaten by the Mooseman again!
Private study, Noise is no problem... what would you recommend for gaming only. Lets say the budget around £500/£600 what's the best I can do?
Will you be reusing parts to build new pc?
I assume you need a monitor,peripherals and an OS??
The case is sorted, Dvd drive and HDD I've got
What is the case and HDD you have??
What about the other bits I mentioned in my last post??
Just a generic case and 1tb hard drive not sure about anything else about it. Peripherals, monitor and os I can worry about later. I'm just looking at the actual system it's self atm
