$550 Computer Build

qmfosems22 · Aug 25, 2014

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a cheap computer under $600. Looking to play Maplestory, Tera, and League of Legends. With this computer, how much FPS can I expect? Also, is there any changes I can make to the build to make it better? Thanks.

THose games are not demanding at all. 60 fps no prob.
I would say save some bucks on the mobo, but seems like u want to oc.
Suggestions:
R7 250 is pure crap. Get a used 7770 or above.
Change ur psu for a xfx 550 or antec basiq(real cheap)

You can overclock the G3258 on a B85 Motherboard and he can get up to 4.5 Ghz on this motherboard and that Graphics card will get him much more FPS .

Looks fine, No more oc though, which is where the cpu shine, This might cut some performance in the future. A dual core pentium at stock isnt the best.

Can you show me a good build that is worth the price then? Im not sure if I will be oc.

He's just saying nonsense imo , you can definitely overclock on these things with a touch of a button . Its as easy as watching a video and applying what's said , Don't worry .

Oh i didnt know that, since when u can oc with no z chips?

TopLuca · Aug 25, 2014

Yingda Wang :

I apologize If I was mean , Most manufacturers enabled OC on even the H-81 Motherboards but they aren't ideal for Overclocking but since the G3258 is a fairly low TDP Processor all of them are fine for overclocking. The Gigabyte B85 is a good motherboard all round , it has front USB 3.0 and 4 RAM Slots .
