750$ gaming pc...good?

IntrepidAce · Mar 19, 2014

This is my future build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3cNY0.
I was wondering if this is the best I can get for $768 dollars.

This is for gaming.

Yes that's a great gaming PC, but you need a greater PSU for that Graphics card, The Mininum is 450W (500W recommended) Also check if its got the right pin connection.

an r7 270 is decent but around the price range the gtx 750 ti is good.

fatboyslimerr · Mar 19, 2014

R9 270 beats a heavily overclocked GTX 750 Ti. Evidence here http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/gigabyte_geforce_gtx_750_ti_windforce_review,17.html

Definitely go for the R9 270 or 270X if its in your budget.

well with the 4670k it shits all over the 4440.
