I have spent hours researching, comparing, and tearing my hair out trying to build a nice, efficient BUDGET rig that will hold up to my boyfriends expectations in gaming. So far this is what my build will be---
CPU AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core $144.98
Motherboard Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0 ATX AM3+ $127.98
Memory Kingston HyperX 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 $79.99
Storage Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM $49.99
Video Card MSI Radeon R9 270X 2GB TWIN FROZR $184.98
Power Supply XFX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V $104.98
Optical Drive Samsung SH-224DB/BEBE DVD/CD Writer $14.99
Operating System Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit) $89.98
Case- AZZA solano 1000 blue (but I will be switching out the blue led fans with green ^_^) $114
I don't know if I can cut cost anywhere, or if the power supply will work well with this case.
Also, I need to figure out what monitor that is 120hz and that I can afford. ... I'm a little lost. Any and all feedback will be MUCH appreciated!!!
Oh and I have about 3 weeks to do all of this !!!!
