yes it will run almost every games at ultra settings and few at very high.

if you have not already bought the system then get 2x4 gb 1600 mhz of ram and change the thermaltake PSu to a xfx 550 watt PSU.

Plus if you want to OC the processor then you should get an aftermarket cooler and a 970 or 990 board.

Ohh uhm im going to get 2x4gb 1333mhz ram, is there any great impact to the process itself if i will buy 1333 instead of 1600? Coz its much cheaper :)  and i wont oc coz i dont have any idea how to do it haha, just wondering if any case would do coz i want to spend more in the gfx and processor and i think ill change the psu to what you have mentioned.

No not much of a difference between the 1330 and 1600mhz and if you dont oc then the motherboard is okk and good to go with xfx instead of thermaltake.

why NA the r9 270x can easily run a game at ultra settings with decent fps at 1080p its only 4-5 fps behind the gtx 760.

Food for thought...........



I am running the R9 280x adjacent with the FX 6300 on Shadow of mordor at max settings 70fps average.
I am running Metro last night redux at 80fps minus aa and 55fps x2 aa.

If you want a future proof system you will need a better card.

Alright.. Thanks Prit87 this build that i checked as far as the prices are concerned, my budget is enough so i'll upgrade to a much better gfx card like what Richyse7en mentioned.

if you have a bigger budget then make it 329$ big and get a gtx 970 if you really thinking about future proofing there is about 10 - 15 fps difference between r9 270x and 280x.

yes you can go for seasonic 520 watt , rosewill capstone 550 watt but they are costlier than the xfx.

yeah i think that will do. but what if i get a cheaper psu, i mean a low quality psu, what will happen in the build? will it overheat or something? not a tech savvy sorry.

Great for what you are doing... You need to get a minimum of 80 plus bronze certificated PCU dude. The 80 Plus Bronze rating means that the PSU is rated for at least 82% efficiency at 20% load, 85% at 50% load, and 82% at 100% load. Don't opt for something unbranded either, there are plenty of certificated unbranded products out there that I wouldn't personally buy from.

if you have not found the xfx 550 then look for seasonic 520 watt a low quality PSU comes with poor capacitors which gives up quickly at load.

Plus the cx and vs series PSU from corsair are better to be avoided they are low quality psu not made for gaming pc comes with cheap capacitors and have many bad feedback's like burning and failure.
