Update this Gaming PC Build?

Rodbrollin · Jun 26, 2014

Hey, I was wondering if I could get a few suggestions for this build. It is about $700 or so and I want it to be around $750. No higher than $760. If anyone could add something to make this PC build a lot faster for gaming for $50 that would be great. Thanks.

Switch the r9 270 to a r9 270X, or gtx 760 if you can afford it.

hmm. Nice. Can you tell me how much of an FPS increase in a game like Battlefield? for both of those cards?

ehh, for 760 it would probably be like 15+ fps. (idk about 270X)

Danbuscus25 · Jun 26, 2014

in my build, i got a 280, an fx 8320 and better cooler, better mobo, better hdd, better psu, and better monitor (the one you picked only had a vga port).

This is insanely amazing for that price. Thank you, however, I heard that case isn't too good because it can't even fix a 760 card?? It is somewhat small I heard so even the Optical Drive might not be able to fit entirely. Any solutions to that? DIfferent case, slightly bigger?

Danbuscus25 · Jun 26, 2014

both the optical drive and the graphics card will fit, it has an external 5.25" bay for the optical drive, and if the graphics card didnt fit it would have a incompatibility note under the build. you can get a bigger case if you want, it just means spending a little more. also, anything from microcenter, you have to go and pick it up in person.

Well, this is great, thanks a lot man. I'm sure I will be either building this or building something close to this in the next few months. You have been a great help and I'm sure everything will fit in the case. You are right. So I guess that leaves one last question. How much fps can this beast of a computer get in CS:GO, DayZ, and Minecraft?

Danbuscus25 · Jun 26, 2014

it will max out minecraft no problem, idk about cs:go, and it should handle dayz on high-very high.
