Need Advice for updated build ordering ASAP

JustinTiburon · Apr 22, 2013

I would like to update my graphics card, ram, psu, mobo, and cpu this is what i have picked out... would like to keep cost down, so if i can save anywhere, please let me know. I would like a good enough system to play the newer games that are coming out.

AMD FX-6100 Zambezi 3.3GHz Socket AM3+ 95W Six-Core Desktop Processor

GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST SuperClocked 2GB

SeaSonic S12II 620 Bronze 620W

ASRock Z77 Extreme6

Since two of those deals come with 8 gigs of ram each that will be 16 gigs, I know I really only need 8 should I take the free ones and get a different processor? Would prefer AMD as thats what my buddies are using and love it. Also would like to keep cost + shipping under 6, maybe go over, depends on suggestions.

it is okay to go with AMD build for better price

JustinTiburon · Apr 22, 2013

was the GTX 650 really that bad? or how amazing is the radeon 7870?

circularpromise53 · Apr 22, 2013

+1 to AMD Radeon.

circularpromise53 · Apr 22, 2013

and the card he picked will be better. its a 7870 running on 7950/7970 architecture

AMD Radeon · Apr 22, 2013

7870 XT is slightly below 7950. if you dont know amd card performance, 7950 is almost similar with GTX 670. and keeping the price competitive

JustinTiburon · Apr 22, 2013

and with that build i will have no problems playing like tf2, cs:go bo:2 and the newer mmo's that are coming out this year?

AMD Radeon · Apr 22, 2013

well if you trust gtx 650 ti, 7870 xt is about 1,8x its performance so you decide. will it have problem?

JustinTiburon · Apr 22, 2013

hey hey hey, thats what my buddy told me to get haha, i have a gts 250 right now, to show you how old my computer is

JustinTiburon · Apr 22, 2013

That graphics card is out of stock, next suggestion? Also that ram is not available either.

AMD Radeon · Apr 22, 2013

hmm
if you want to save money, this card performs slightly better than GTX 650 Ti 2GB ($175)

and this is 7870

another 7870 XT are priced higher so i cant recommend it anymore

circularpromise53 · Apr 22, 2013

The 7870 xt cards come in and out of stock a lot since they are so close to the 7950 and such a low price. I would wait till they are ib stock because they outperform regular 7870s. Of course if you have te money get the 7950. I love mine, but it might be overkill for the games you want to play

JustinTiburon · Apr 22, 2013

I went ahead and ordered the parts, should be here within the week, thanks for the help guys
