Is my (gonna be) computer good for gaming?

xXxbayxXx · Jul 13, 2013

Right now, I have a $400 walmart computer. I've been thinking about upgrading. So, I decided to build my own PC, because my budget is $700.

Here's what I've picked out: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/xXxbayxXx/saved/1W97

I'm gonna be using it to play games and record stuff like minecraft. Any suggestions/advice/opinions would help! Thanks!

Get two 1TB hard drives, this will make recording in 1080p much smoother and give a higher FPS, other than that, a very nice build B)

And If you can, salvage the CD/DVD drive from your old PC and put it into the new one, that way you'll save $18

GPU is weak - spend an extra 17 bucks on a 7750: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/powercolor-video-card-ax77501gbd5dh

Benchmark comparison:

7750 - http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu.php?gpu=Radeon+HD+7750&id=321
