I've had a gaming laptop for years, but now it can't even run AC Black Flag (I mean it'll run but at 20-30fps) so I've decided to sell it and build a gaming desktop
i5 4460
Gigabyte GA-H87-D3H
8GB (4x2) Dual Channel G.Skill Ares 1600Mhz
Zotac GTX 760 amp
128GB Corsair GS SSD
500GB Toshiba 7200rpm HDD (I don't store that many files. my laptop has been with me for years yet I've only filled up half of the 1TB drive)
Seasonic S12G 650w
Corsair 300R Windowed
CM Hyper 212X
*not gonna OC or SLI/CF
note that I'm on a tight budget, and I cannot get a more expensive part without sacrificing another. my question is, will this setup run most modern games at a constant 55+fps at 1080p? (High-Ultra settings, AA turned off, some useless settings like "shadow" or "reflection" or "water" can go as low as medium) should I sacrifice one part to get a better one? for example, should I get the i5 4430 instead of the 4460 so I can try to pick up a gtx 770?
as much as possible I'd like to stick with this setup that's why i'm asking if it'll go 55+fps, if not, I'd like to hear suggestions on what I'd sacrifice and what I'd spend a little more on. thanks
