Need a computer built

Scarecrow70 · Jan 19, 2014

m looking to build a gaming desktop under or around 900. Im pretty brain dead when it comes to computer parts and knowing which are good and which aren't. I have a monitor http://www.amazon.com/HP-2159M-21-5-Inch-LCD-Monitor/dp...

Im wanting to be able to play these games in great fps! (Fps with 60 and not problem with lag or of the sort)
League of Legends
BattleField 3 & 4
Rust
Diablo 3

It doesnt matter if the price is a little bit over by like $40 or $50, but not like $100.

This would rule. I didn't know whether or not you had an OS already or not. So I could use some more details.

I'm not saying this is final. Was just something fairly quick I put together. The components are quite good.

Getting 60FPS will depend on the game you're playing and whether you max all the graphical settings. So while

you may not get 60FPS in all games, you can still get a smooth FPS. Anything over 30-40 is just fine.

the above members build is pretty good for the price. If you do have an OS then I would try to trim a little here and there off and get a 770, otherwise you can't max battlefield at 1080p.

simmons33 · Jan 19, 2014

I approve X79's Build. =D

Scarecrow70 · Jan 19, 2014

I was looking to run the games I put above on max setting with at least 60 fps, but If battlefield can be max settings on 60 its fine just at good fps!

woltej1 · Jan 19, 2014

Well a 270x won't be able to max BF4 at 1080p.

Scarecrow70 · Jan 20, 2014

Will a gtx 770?

woltej1 · Jan 20, 2014

yea, a 770 will max it. a 270x will still give good FPS on high settings with AA off though.

Whats the difference between the 2 builds?

woltej1 · Jan 21, 2014

The cpu, but I wouldn't pair a 6300 with a 770 card, it will slow it down.

X79 · Jan 21, 2014

Just a different CPU

Scarecrow70 · Jan 21, 2014

What should I get instead? @woltej1

woltej1 · Jan 21, 2014

you can go 6300 and a 760, and then have no upgrade room really. Or if you want a 770 a 8300 or 8350 are good matches and have good future proofing.

Scarecrow70 · Jan 21, 2014

how much will it be if i get a 8300?

woltej1 · Jan 21, 2014

like $10 cheaper or something. They are essentially the same thing, just the 8350 has a higher clock speed.

Scarecrow70 · Jan 21, 2014

So if i get the 8350 and gtx 770 it will allow me to run battlefield on max with 60?

woltej1 · Jan 22, 2014

yea, that set up will run BF4 like a boss.

simmons33 · Jan 22, 2014

I doubt a 6300 would slow down a 770. Id personally prefer a 8350, But w/e

Scarecrow70 · Jan 22, 2014
