First Gaming PC build for teen

P Wheeler · Jan 31, 2014

Hi i am a 14y/o australian boy and i need help on a gaming pc build.
I have chosen a cpu (Intel i5 3350P) and a graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560). I dont have much of a budget so about $600 altogether for the build. I will be mainly playing minecraft and maybe beamng drive and rigs of rods if possible. (The GTX 560 is listed as the moderate gpu on beamng's website).
I need someone to tell me whAt else i need eg. case, motherboard, psu etc. i dont care about what the case looks like as long as it does the job and everything fits. I couldnt care if it was bright pink to be honest.
Anyway thanks for any help guys, i appreciate it

If you're in the $600 price range this could be a good build for you: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2KVfe The graphics card is a generation newer so It will be faster the CPU is an 8-core so it will be good for multi-tasking and also a great gaming CPU. There is enough wattage in the build to supply a better GPU. This is the build I plan on purchasing in a few months. For an extra $50 you can add a DVD drive and add a Hard Drive if you don't have one laying around from an old PC. With this build expect to run All the games listed above at MAX settings. Hope this helps.

The build above doe snot include quite a few parts, including no operating system. I'd lower the CPU and video card a notch for a cheaper build as well as go with a lower wattage power supply.
