I'm almost done with my first budget gaming PC build.
And the last tid-bits I have to seriously decide over is the Ram and Video Card.
I originally wanted to install 8 gb of ram (DDR3), but the cost is nudging my budget a bit.
The difference between 8gb and 4gb is at least $30-40.
Also, atm I'm interested in getting the Powercolor HD 7850 2gb as my video card for $100 (after mir).
.....So I'm in a bit of a dilemma:
1. Should I stick with 8gb ram and the 7850?
OR
2. Should I just buy 4gb ram, and maybe use that saved up money (about $30) for a better card?
(If so, any suggestions for a better card?)
(And is 4gb enough for gaming?)
Btw, some additional info about my ongoing build:
CPU --- Intel Core i5-4430
Mobo --- MSI H87-G43 ATX LGA1150
PSU --- Thermaltake 750w or Corsair 650w
PLEASE HELP!
Thanks ...
