Hello,
This is my current setup:
-Core 2 Duo e6750 OR Q6600
-MSI G41M-p23 ms-7592 OR Asus P5K-E
-2x2gb Kingston Memory 99u5474 (part number?)
- GeForce 8800Gts
- Basic Antec Case (One Fan)
- Optimax Titan ATX 550 PS
- Basic Hard Drive
- Samsung 75Hz Display (basic aswell)
Editor note: I just received a friends computer with the OR options in it. Let me know if I should change my spending habits according to the acquisition
My goal: Be able to play Battlefield 4 (when its out) and Battlefield 3, CS:GO and most other mainstream FPS shooters with a Reasonable (70+) framerate while maintaining roughly a Medium/High settings with graphics. Smooth gameplay is a must.
What should I do to my system? I am willing to:
A) Upgrade
B) Defile it and turn it into a completely new machine on the inside
C) Start from scratch. (Which i do understand would need a little more $)
Approximate Purchase Date: 3 Weeks from now
Budget Range: 200-500/600
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming. And then regular stuff we all do
Parts Not Required: Keyboard, speakers, soundcard. Basically anything thats not a core component the speed of my computer with regards to gaming. OS not needed either
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg etc, PartsPicker is what ill use anyways
Country: Im from canada..
Parts Preferences: Could care less, im all about FUNCTION, how it looks or what its name is means nothing to me.
Overclocking: Sure if its safe
SLI or Crossfire: No idea
Monitor Resolution: 1440x900, im willing to purchase a new monitor however.
Thanks in advance, the world needs techs like you.
