Need a 1000$ budget build please:)

kode91000 · Nov 17, 2014

Hello my good folks of toms hardware. I have been struggling to get a good set up and it seems i just cant do it right. but here are some things that will give you an idea of what i want. I would like to be able to play all current games on ultra settings , I would love to have a build with the AMD 9590 as a cpu , I do not plan on video editing anything like that just want to be able to game for hours on end.. Also i would love for this rig to be future proof please.
Thanks for the help guys

9590s aren't very good. They have a lot of issues, and aren't particularly good for gaming.

9590 is as strong as an i5 and uses heaps of power and gets really really hot. I'd advise against using it. Try -

i7baby would i be able to take the gtx 760 out and add the gtx 970 with no problems?

James Mason · Nov 17, 2014

kode91000 :

other than the price difference there's no issue.

James Mason :

So the 760 is actually a good gpu bro? Cause i want to be able to play current games up to date know what i mean im just hesitant about it cause i seen somebody saying that assasins creed unity wasnt performing that well with the 760 gpu. Im just makin sure bro still learning

The 760 is a pretty good card for its price. the next card up would be the 770, which goes for AT LEAST 250-260$. A better alternative to the 760 would be the 280X, which goes for ~220$.

i7Baby · Nov 17, 2014

It would bring you to about $1150 - over budget. But the 970s are fantastic.
