Hi guys and girls,
Thanks for taking the time to answer this question!
I really want to get into PC gaming, as it's clear what the benefits are over console. Also, its PCs and hardware etc, are actually quite interesting.
I want to buy a gaming desktop, and my limit would be about £440. I have a few in mind, but a friend has given me this desktop http://www.johnlewis.com/hp-pavilion-500-210ea-desktop-...
My plan is to use this system as a base setup, and buy these following parts:
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/Danbuscus250/saved/43yz
CPU Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core £161.99
CPU Cooler Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing £25.44
Video Card EVGA GeForce GTX 760 2GB £193.05
Power Supply XFX 550W ATX12V / EPS12V £44.98
Total: £425.46
Few more questions:
1. Will this actually WORK? Are all the components capable with each other, and obviously this would include the case on the HP.
2. Will this be a reliable system? One thing I hate in life is unreliable products.
3. Will anything be changed in terms of software? I only ask because I don't actually know whether my friend will eventually want this pc back (it was offered because this laptop is dying haha). Clearly he may be upset if I changed any of the software.
4. What kind of settings can I be running on it exactly? Games I will be playing include:
Fifa
Skyrim
Battlefield
Crysis
Titanfall probably
Call of Duty
Cheers for the help guys! Any advice on anything will be really appreciated, thanks!
