Hardware list for a gaming computer

spk612 · Dec 30, 2013

Hi everyone I'm building my first gamer computer, I looked at a lot of tutorial and I finish with this hardware for a powerful tower and I wanted to know your opinion on it if there is something I could change. Sorry for my poor english and thank you for your help.

1. You dont need that much ram for a gaming pc just get 2x4gb sticks 17 gb ram is only needed for professional rendering

2. the link to your cpu is broken

3. everything else looks fine do you have a hard drive ?

I was thinking to take 2x8 gb so if I'd like to upgrade my tower I wouldn't need to buy others one and sorry for the cpu link, a bad moment with goo.gl I think, here it is: Intek Core i7 4770K http://www.microcenter.com/product/413248/Core_i7_4770K_35GHz_Socket_LGA_1150_Boxed_Processor
I decided to take an SSD for the system (dual boot linux windows) and a 2Tb Sata

spk612 :

tour not going to need 16 gig of ram for another 4 years at least. BF4 dosent even use 3.5 gb of ram when playing on ultra trust me

The cpu is fine too

although if its just for gaming you might be better of with a 4670k

also do you want/ need to oc cause if you dont just get teh non "k" model.

So yeah I'll take this option which is much less expensive, and everything is good for the cpu?
Edit: It's not only for playing, I'm making a lot of 3D animations for my job so I'm using progams like Autodesk Maya. (But a lot of gaming too ^^)

Edit 2: For the rendering I think it would be better to use an oc version no?

spk612 :

oooooooh now you tell me then the ram and cpu are fine. For rendering and animating and cad like programs the more the faster

i thought this was for pure gaming soz :pt1cable:

Yeah sorry I didn't precised this, but if I'm going to use those program, the cpu 4770k will be enough or I should take another one? I prefer to take something expensive now than to need to change it in 1 year

spk612 :

4770k is the best mainstream processor on the market unless you want to move to the 2011 chipset but that is more workstation oriented and cpu;s get expensive

you shouldnt need to oc you can if you want but im not sure how much or a time decrease you would get with rendering you can experiment tho

spk612 · Dec 30, 2013

Ok thank you for everything krishna, so I'll search on animations forums and choose 4770 or 4770k if the oc can help on the rendering.
