What do you think about this, what would you change

cody shiner · Oct 10, 2014

This is my absloute highest budget, if anything i would rather a lower price. If you know of cheaper and better alternatives please feel free to post them. http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=wish_lists&wlcId=361539&action=wish_lists

I know i can use pcpartcart or whatever its called, but im just looking at one site to get it all from.
thanks

(i know i have asked about a few builds. sorry)

First of all where is GPU? FX6300 doest have integrated one. Second - mobo is waste, you have to get something on 970 chipset, not 760-one. Take a simple ram kit which would be good and stable for ex. two of those http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=186_774&products_id=28814 that would be only 90$, not 115. Also I have to say that the PSU is not the best out there. Go with a http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_535&products_id=24434. For the case that one http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=25_961&products_id=25697 is perfect for the money.

Have fun

Don't worry we sometimes will change our minds.

Nice average build but the PSU isn't a good choice.

I wont be gaming so do i need a graphics card? Which motherboard sorry?

lightcloud · Oct 10, 2014

I recommend using PCPartPicker again and set the your preferred store to PCCG.

Thanks mate, you always seem to be answering my stupid questions.
Thanks! really appreciate it.

niko24 · Oct 10, 2014

cody shiner :

You need any GPU so you can run this PC. So if you're not planing to game you should switch from FX6300 to APU which can be A6/A8 or A10 model. Those chips have integrated graphics. Stick with it.

lightcloud · Oct 10, 2014

No such thing as stupid questions.

And by the way you will need an account to set preffered stores. I review the build when you are done.

I would rather get a Pentium instead with integrated GPU. Much cheaper.

cody shiner · Oct 10, 2014

i seriously am too poor to start this haha.
this is like the cheapest i could get and it still even be remotely good. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/cody1998/saved/pbFmP6

Sorry for the late reply. The build you listed doesn't have any graphics at all. The CPU doens't have any integrated GPU, and not does the motherboard. Like I said get a Pentium for a super cheap build. Should save $100 or so.

niko24 · Oct 10, 2014

lightcloud :

For the daily usage without gaming - APU's are the way to go, mate.

lightcloud · Oct 10, 2014

niko24 :

From what I know APU has better graphics than the Intel integrated GPU. However their CPU isn't as powerful or up to standard to an Intel one. So it really depends with the OP. And Intel Inetgrated graphics card is still able to run on low for most games.

niko24 · Oct 10, 2014

lightcloud :

On the paper/benchmarks (in single threaded app's) Intel Pentium G would shine, but in the real daily usage A8 would do the job well with it's multy-threaded performance and better graphics. Anyway both builds have a chance to live. Preference matter here.

5th post as near as I can tell. cody shiner please stop spamming the forum.

lightcloud · Oct 10, 2014

Agree. Let's listen to what the OP has to say.

how about something cheap like this? Thanks again guys

lightcloud · Oct 11, 2014

You don't need a case fan.

Bad motherboard. Get a H97.

I believe a Seagate Barracuda or WD Blue will cost cheaper.

cody shiner · Oct 11, 2014

ASRock H97M Anniversary Motherboard
ASRock H97M-Pro4 Motherboard
ASUS H97M-E Motherboard
MSI H97M-G43 Motherboard
Gigabyte GA-H97M-HD3 Motherboard
best out of these?
Thanks again mate.

lightcloud · Oct 11, 2014

Go with the cheapest one. And don't get MSI as they have terrible QC.
