Is this good enough?

UnfeeKecleon · Sep 26, 2014

Hi, I was just trying to build my own PC and so far here's what I got:

GPU: GT 750
CPU: i5-4460
Ram:4gb
MoBo:Asus H81 M-E
and a 1TB harddrive

ow and btw which is better GT 750 OR GTX 650? AND i5-4460 or i5-4590?
Thanks in advance
I'm planning to play games such as BF4, FC4, Titanfall at med settings at 1300+x###(i forgot) reso what do you guys think?

UnfeeKecleon :

the gtx 650 is much better than the low end gt 750 .., and the i5 4590 is the better choice here for gaming...

I think you need a power supply as well.

A GTX 750 > GTX 650 and 4590 > 4460.

I would change to 8Gb of ram, and a 750 Ti, shouldnt cost too much more, but will be a lot better.

mnineseven · Sep 26, 2014

GTX 750 and i5 4590 are the better options amongst the two. For 1600x900, this rig will do quite well, but if you try this option : i5 4440 with GTX 750 ti, you'll be able to notch the settings to high and still get 60 frames a second.

edit: typo.

jbrown156 · Sep 26, 2014

wait a minute do you mean a gtx 750 or a gt 750 ?

No its not, the 750 is much better than the 650.

jbrown156 :

No such thing as gt 750 on the desktop, its GTX 750.

jbrown156 · Sep 26, 2014

excuse me i made a mistake i meant the 750 is better

logainofhades · Sep 26, 2014

jbrown156 :

The 650 is not better than a 750..... This comment is as good as the one guy claiming the R9 290 is faster than a GTX 970. :lol:

OP, get the least expensive i5, if it means you can get a better GPU. What is your budget for this, and do you need Windows as well.

mnineseven · Sep 26, 2014

jbrown156 :

There is no GT 750. He is referring to the GTX 750.

jbrown156 · Sep 26, 2014

jbrown156 :

excuse me but i coylda sworn i said i made a mistake earlier.. i placed the 650 first when it should have been the 750 ... no need to be saying anything about the post after i have clearly said it was a typing error

We apparently posted at the same time. :lol:

UnfeeKecleon · Sep 26, 2014

Ow really? There's no thing such as GT 750? ( no sarcasm, I promise) because I really thought I have seen "GT" 750 (sorry for my noobness) so should I upgrade it to i7? ( I dont mind the price if my GPU is really that good) and my PSU is already covered and my RAM is 4GB DDR3 ( and wow I did not expect this much answer in such a little time :O )

logainofhades · Sep 26, 2014

If you can afford an i7, then use that money saved, by going with an i5, towards another 4gb ram and a better GPU. My recommendation would be a system something like this.

there is no such gpu on the nvidia site that is why i asked if you meant the gtx or gt .. the i7 will be a nice upgrade but an i5 would be just fine in games though .. if you have the bank then go for the more future friendly one ..

here are the list of gpu made by nvidia

UnfeeKecleon · Sep 26, 2014

Ow, but unfortunately, on the entire mall, GTX 750 is the best they got (really sad, it is) so yea I woudn't mind an extra 4gb (8gb total right) but if I ever find something with GTX too which way should I go? The higher number or the Lower number? (for example GTX 740 OR GTX 760) and I'm also gonna keep an eye for Ti

(and what does the Ti do anyway) Thanks :3

jbrown156 · Sep 26, 2014

the higher number doesnt always mean the card is more powerful and the ti just means its a souped up version of the same card and will perform better

RobCrezz · Sep 26, 2014

jbrown156 :

Not always. For example, the 660 and 660 ti use different GPUs, the 660 uses the GK106, the 660 Ti shares the GK104 with the 670/680/760/770

jbrown156 · Sep 26, 2014

RobCrezz :

thanks for that information i did not know that before, but you learn as you go ..

mnineseven · Sep 26, 2014

I think the OP has received his answer, can he now close the thread by marking the best answer?

RobCrezz · Sep 26, 2014

jbrown156 :

No worries, nvidia are not that consistent with their naming, so often there are some weird exceptions.

The 780 and 780 ti do share the same gpu (with more cores enabled on the Ti), so in some cases it is right.

jbrown156 · Sep 26, 2014

ok i think its fair that the op state whether is questions are answered correctly as yet or if there is still some uncertainty.

UnfeeKecleon · Sep 26, 2014

Yes, Thanks everyone can anyone pls close the thread for me? (dunno how to)

Is this good enough?
