what will you be using you build for? as it will be a good mid-range gaming system at the moment.

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014

that is what i am planning maybe a bit of recording but not much its ment for like bf4 skyrim watch dogs those high end games at MEDIUM

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

you should be fine at medium settings on those games. only thing i would suggest if you can afford it is to change the 6-core fx-6300 to one of the 8-core processors. i believe the fx8320 which is what i have, is only around £25 more than the fx6300. but overall a good mid-range gaming pc.

one question tho....what ram are you getting..?

laviniuc · Jul 24, 2014

-you don't have a psu,
-no ram
-you can get a better graphics card for the same price (radeon 260x/265/270) the 750 is a good choice if you're psu limited but on a new build that's not the case.

Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10)

Corsair RM Series 750 Watt ATX/EPS 80PLUS Gold-Certified Power Supply - CP-9020055-NA RM750 b

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

in that case buy a better graphics card like laviniuc said, the radeon 270 would be a nice swap instead of the gtx750ti

also.....a 750watt power supply is rather large for your build, why not buy a good 550/600watt one and put the money difference into your gpu/cpu

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014

what about this card
ASUS 2GB GDDR5 DIGI+ VRM technology Graphics Cards HD7770-2GD5

laviniuc · Jul 24, 2014

RobCherry :

coolbeaver12 :

that's about the same performance as the 750ti, look for: 7790, 7850, 260x, 265, 270, gtx660 or tell us the exact shop you're buying from and the max budget/gpu and we'll look for one

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

check this link out, shows you the performance of the hd7770 vs the r7 270

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

yeh we need to know your budget really, or were shooting in the dark really

Sapphire Radeon R7 260X 2GB GDDR5 HDMI/DVI-I/DP OC Version PCI-Express Graphics Card 11222-06-20G

SeaSonic G Series 550-Watt ATX12V/EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply SSR-550RM b is that what u meant

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

thats alot better card than the hd7770 you picked a few minutes ago, check these specs out, its the gtx750ti which you wanted against the r7 260x you have just picked...

http://www.hwcompare.com/17288/geforce-gtx-750-ti-vs-radeon-r7-260x/

as for the power supply, seasonic is one of the best if not in my opinion. great choice.

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014

what cable do i need from screen to computer in this case

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

you mean like a hmdi cable/vga cable/ dvi cable ? what screen do you have?

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014

hp s2231a

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

just get a dvi or hdmi lead for that screen

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014

so the motherboard has a dvi output

RobCherry · Jul 24, 2014

no the motherboard you have picked has no display ports on the back.

the hdmi or dvi would be plugged into the graphics card

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014

this setup costs 840$ is it better to buy this setup for 903$ Processor: 3,7 GHz AMD A10-6700 Quad Core processor.
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 RAM
Harddisk: 2 TB harddisk
: 2 GB AMD R7-240 grafik.

laviniuc · Jul 24, 2014

no, the second option at 903 is weaker (both cpu and gpu)

coolbeaver12 · Jul 24, 2014
