Hi im looking to build a gaming pc for about $1000, im coming from having a macbook pro and it just does not cut it with even doing simple things like browsing and watching youtube. I am currently living in singapore and was wondering where i should buy my parts (are you able to buy from amazon/newgg and ship anywhere) the places that you can buy parts from locally are quite expensive.
This will be my first build so i think that this will be a pretty good starting point for my first pc.
So far what i have picked is as follows:
intel i5 3570K
asrock ATX Z77 extreme 4
hyper 212 evo (will this be enough to overclock?)
8gb corsair vengence 2x4gb 1600mhz
1TB western digital caviar black
Needed:
GPU: budget $250
PSU: cheapest without skimping on quality
Case: $50-$60
Monitor: 1080p i think the sizes are something like 21.5 or 23 i dont want/need any bigger
Mouse: cheap and quality
Keyboard: cheap and quality
Case fans: i am also looking for some case fans with blue leds
I will be looking to overclock the cpu to about 4.4-4.5ghz and maybe if i can the gpu. I also wanted to know if the cooler will be enough to allow this overclock. I will be playing games such as:
battlefield 3
Black ops 2
guild wars 2
and other fps games
Any input will be appreciated also if you have recommendations for parts that i have already picked.
