So this is my first build and I don't want some kind of supercomputer. Just a computer that can run games (such as Train Simulator 2013, Rome Total War, and possibly Black Ops, Battlefield 3, Metro 2033 and F1) and programs fairly well.

So I am mainly looking at feedback for the graphics card, but was also wondering what the general setup was like, and whether I would see a difference between a 32 or 64 MB cache hard drive. Also, would I see a difference between 1333 and 2133 Mhz RAM.

I am not really a serious gamer but I will most likely move into some of the above mentioned games (BF3 etc)

  • -Case Coolermaster K350 Black
    -CPU AMD Bulldozer 4-Core 4170 4.2 Ghz
    -Motherboard ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 + AMD 670 Chipset
    -RAM 8GB DDR3 1600 Patriot VIPER V3 Red Gaming
    -HDD 2TB 7200RPM 62MB cache
    -DVD Sony 24x DVD+/-RW
    -GPU nVidia 650 Ti Boost
    -OS 64 bit Windows 8 Pro
    -(extra) 2x Firewire port
All help is greatly appreciated; thanks :wahoo:

-Case Coolermaster K350 Black ----- it will be better if you go for cooler master haf 912 - the best budget case
-CPU AMD Bulldozer 4-Core 4170 4.2 Ghz
-Motherboard ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 + AMD 670 Chipset
-RAM 8GB DDR3 1600 Patriot VIPER V3 Red Gaming
-HDD 2TB 7200RPM 62MB cache
-DVD Sony 24x DVD+/-RW
-GPU nVidia 650 Ti Boost ----- go for an HD 7850 it's a beast trust me , i got it by yesterday and it smoked all my games , i got 72 fps in battlefield 3 with ultra setting using a Core 2 Quad processor with it

Cool, thanks. I will probably go for the 7850 now; can you confirm the exact model you have (sapphire etc...)

Does anyone have an opinion on the 1333 and 2133 Mhz RAM and the 32 or 64 mb HDD?

Thanks.

I would recommend going for faster ram than 1333, 2133 may be overkill though, if you can afford 64 go for it. I would also suggest going for an FX-4300 of an FX-4350, there isn't a lot of price difference and the 43-- series are more powerful

you'r welcome buddy , i have the HIS IceQ X HD 7850 2 gb : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161405

i think it's the best model of the HD 7850 - Low temps , silent , Overclocked
( am getting this temps : idle 32 full load 65 )

about the RAM , i don't know a lot about it but you can go for 1600 or 1800 , 1866 . it's the best for the price and the performance

i have the Corsair Vengeance 8 GB ( 2x4GB ) @ 1600
