Hello guys,
I am in the market for building a new PC but I am completely out of date on technology. My last PC was made 5-6 yrs ago so I have a lot of research to do. Hoping for a quick turnaround with your help. I want to keep my case and psu from the old PC on the new build, as they cost a lot at the time of the purchase and new components would mean a real stretch to my budget- currently, Antec P182 & Corsair HX 520W. My budget is $850.00 (around 3000 RON in Romanian currency) and this should cover the MB, Processor, Video Card and RAM. If possible, maybe a new HDD as well, but that falls in priority ofc. I do not intend to overclock anything but I want to be able to run any game on ultra settings. I have a full-hd monitor (Dell U2312HM) and the peripherals. I am thinking an intel i5 as I've seen quite a good deal at one of the local merchants (http://www.altex.ro/procesor-intel-core-i5-4460-bx80646i54460-3-2ghz-6mb-socket-1150) on a Gigabyte/Asus MB (I will not change the PC for the next 4-5 years so better to stick with quality products). For the video card, I know Nvidia provides more stability (drivers-wise etc), but I am looking for something I can afford and wish to still be able to play most recent games in the future, so I am not ruling AMD out. It may be difficult to shop from outside Romania but do recommend what you deem the best deal for the money and I would try to match it with the local stores (I had a good experience with these if anyone is curious to take a look: www.pcgarage.ro, www.altex.ro).
Thank you!
