Hey TH community, i have always been ghosting my way through these forums and am finally deciding to build my own gaming computer. As of right now i play League of Legends mainly with the occasional mind craft.


So my question to everyone is what GPU/CPU cooler should i get for my build?
i was thinking either 650 TI boost or 660 or R9 270. id love this computer to last and since money is tight at the moment i could always upgrade from my i3 to i5 in future but id love to get a good GPU before it all that will not bottleneck my i3-4130.

ALSO is my i3-4130 set up even good with the list of items that i have in the PC parts link?

comments/concerns are much appreciated, Thanks again in advance everyone !!

HD 7850 is the best bang for your buck at this time

HD 7950s are dipping down in the $170-180 range making them incredible values for that price point.

Hey heironious, thanks for feedback ! I might just look into the r9270 seeing how it just came out but around 25$ more.

How do you feel about my PSU @600W for my whole build. The item is on sale so id love to jump on that.

Pick one (exact for your CPU "i3-4130" ):

1. HD 7870
2. R9 270X
3. GTX 660

Pick one (overkill, within reason):
1. HD 7970
2. R9 280X
3. GTX 770/GTX 680

Wow 7950s dipping down to 170-180. When do you think that would happen? Sounds like a damn good deal !

But my friend is selling a brand new in box EVGA gtx 660 2g for 150$. Very enticing price
