help building a budget gaming pc which would be able to run all games 1920 by 1080p ultra @ 60fps

rzoro · Aug 6, 2014

Just a quick question Im looking to build a second gaming pc for my brother. he mainly plays minecraft heavily modded and would play GTA V and assassins creed unity. the only requirement is that the PC should be like a steam box and the GPU should be Nvidia.

pls help me choose components for the PC.

The budget is £400-£500.
Thanks Guys

Your requirements are not possible with that budget. 1080p @60fps at ultra settings on all games will need more than £500.

firstly, you need at least 800 pounds to even hit ultra, and by choosing a nvidia gpu, you are not making it better, especially for your budget

so what about high settings?

rzoro :

nope, maybe medium on 50-60fps and on some cpu intensive games, maybe even low, depends on how your build goes

oh, thanks mate, just wanted to know if it would be possible, thanks for your input.

rzoro :

np, I'd avise you to save up to 650-750 range, then go amd cpu and gpu, that way, you'll be able to hit ultra I'd say on a 1080p monitor

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/ZdvzhM Nicked this off another thread , it's really cheap but should run games on 1080p medium

By steam box, you mean Mini-ITX?
