*** Skip to the bottom if you don't want to read all this crap, and just want to help me with my question
Hey guys,
This will be the very first pc I build so I am very excited I intend to use this for everything I do, from simple world processing to extended sessions of gaming and light editing so please keep that in mind.
I've made a list of the parts that I'd like to use, any suggestion regarding price/performance/compatibility is greatly accepted:
- Processor: Intel Core i3-4130
- Motherboard: MSI B85-G41 PC MATE
- Ram: 8gb of Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3 1600
- HDD: WD Blue 1TB 7200RPM
- PSU: Corsair CX430m
Again, I'm kind of on a tight budget, so if you have any suggestions regarding any of the components please let me know. I wouldn't mind going with an AMD processor as long as it doesn't affect performance that much...
Now, this is pretty much why I came here for help, as I said before, this will be my main PC, I'll use it for school, to watch multiple Youtube videos, Netflix, have 10+ tabs open in Chrome, casual video and photo editing and most importantly to PLAY GAMES, the latest games, BF4, COD Ghosts, Crysis, Grid, Dirt, Borderlands, Assasin's Creed and what not, so I expect some serious graphics performance from this machine. It's not necessary that it runs them on ultra at 60fps, but I'd like to play them on medium or high at 30+fps on a single 1080p monitor.
I've done some research on the Nvidia side as that is what one of my friends recommended, but again, I'll get an AMD as long as the performance is good in gaming; here are some of the cards I've found under 200 dollars which is my maximum budget:
- GTX 650ti boost
- GTX 750 ti
- GTX 660
***Anyways, if you read through all that crap, your help is really appreciated, what I really need is a GOOD SUB-200 DOLLAR GPU from either Nvidia or AMD to play recent games on medium to high settings at over 30 frames per second.
Thanks in advance!!!
