it's a few generations old but it is a solid build.

you could get a 2500k as it is equal to a 2600k for gaming and put the extra money into a better gpu. 6950 isnt bad but you could do better.

Nice setup, but u don't seem to have any after market CPU cooler which is essential for overclocking (because u have a k series CPU). If you arnt going to overclock then don't get the k version and save some money as the default cooler is fine. It is a good set up, but I'm not sure about the graphics card as it is really big, and build to handle multiple montors 3+. Build to use display port and handle huge resolutions. If you are just gonna use one monitor than the graphics card has wasted potential and money. I feel u would be better with a gtx 770 (my opinion)
But the setup, I think, is good enough to run the latest games very well (also think about getting a small ssd like the samsung 840 evo 120gb for windows and all your programs and it will speed your computer up tenfold)

i was with you right up until you said a 6950 was over powered. a gtx 770 is much stronger than a 6950.

Thanks for the reply...would a md fx 8350 be good instead of i7 2500..
And pls give me a final lists of parts...I am new in this...with their price...

max_payne14 :

Don't go amd,
For gaming i5 is more than enough
Get the i5470k and overclock it for best performance, go to gpuboss.com, and go the sort (top left), and see which of those gpu are within your price range

neon neophyte · Apr 18, 2014

he's probably listing old parts with a different currency because that is what is available to him. a 4670k probably isnt available.

max_payne14 · Apr 19, 2014

Does i5 4670k and gigabyte GeForce gtx 770 4gb would be good...?
If 4670k is not available then ill go with 2500k

neon neophyte · Apr 19, 2014

a 4670k is like a 2500k but 2 generations newer

max_payne14 · Apr 20, 2014

Is i7 4770k would be good...with evga GeForce gtx 780 4gb...would it do for playing all the upcoming games on highest possible settings...?

neon neophyte · Apr 20, 2014

depending on your resolution but yes, that is a fantastic combination.

thing is, the 4670k for pretty much all games up to now is just as good. the only real difference between a 4670k and a 4770k is hyperthreading. which doesnt really get used for gaming but rather production programs. regardless, it is a fantastic gaming cpu and gpu.

max_payne14 · Apr 20, 2014

My resolution would be 1920×1080...my monitor is Samsung 24b300el 23.6" monitor is it a good monitor for playing upcoming games

neon neophyte · Apr 20, 2014

your choice of parts will do very well with 1080p. highest settings on everything. 60 fps.

im sure the monitor is fine. let your eyes be the judge.
