Hello
I was wondering weather I should go with AMD or Intel on my budget (£700-650), I was thinking should I go with AMD and put the money saved money on a better graphics card or should I pay a bit more and go with Inter for better quality with a downgraded graphic card and also this is my first build so I'm not sure what to expect but I heard building a custom desktop is easy and better value so I decided build one this time rather than buy a per built system.
Information....
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming ,Video rendering , Heavy Programs Eg. Photoshop SonyVagas , Running servers.
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: Gpu and Ram
Do I need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) Don't care as long as the website are cheep with high standers
Location:United Kingdom:SouthWales
Parts Preferences: Don't mind.
Overclocking: Maybe.
SLI or Crossfire:Maybe in a few years I,m not sure though.
My Monitor Resolution: Resolution 1920 x 1080 40"inch, I might upgrade to a monitor with 2048 x 1536 display in a year or two.
Additional Comments: I would like the best bang for my money in terms of power reliability and grate performance mainly for gaming and running high end programs.
Why am I Upgrading: My laptop isn't very good any more and also I would like to go back to using a desktop as they are more powerful and a a lot easier to upgrade in long term.
Don't...
