Hey so Christmas coming up and I need a list of each brand of each part for the computer. So if you answer you would say this model of Amd would good and this model of Intel would be good and this model of nvidia would be good i Dont have a budget i just need you to tell me the parts for a computer that would get the job done not any parts that would run bf4 or anything like that im sorry I couldn't think of a better way to put this. One more time, I would like you to list each major brands part for a computer that would be sufficient to run minecraft and maybe tf2 on good settings
I will also be running modded minecraft if that means anything. If you have any questions just ask

The games you mention are not so demanding, and depending on how much you can spend the answers you get will vary. Here is something I would recommend if you can afford it.

At a budget something like
i3 4150/4330 or an A10 7850k AMD APU, this is minimum CPU.
Ideally you want an i5 4440/i5 4690k

RAM brand doesn't matter: just get at least 1600 Mhz, CAS 9-9-9-27 or lower, at 1.5V no more.

SSD get a Kingston SSDnow v300 series for budget and a Samsung 840 or 850 series for high end.

HDD- a western digital black or blue at 1 Terabyte is ideal, you will probably want at least 500GB

Power Supply I would go with an XFX 550 W

GPU I would shoot for an r9 280x from MSI or Gigabyte. any cooler that has two or three fans should work...
okay...it helps if you say what you want to do with said computer but.

CPU- Intel or AMD (shocker)
Motherboard- ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI
RAM- G.skill, Corsair
HDD- Western Digital
SSD- Samsung, Crucial, Kingston
GPU:Sapphire, XFX, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, PNY aint bad either
PSU: Seasonic, XFX, Antec, Corsair AX line
CASE: Corsair, Bitfenix, Lianli, Cooler master is pretty good too.
Cooler: Hyper 212 EVO for mid or no OC. High end (~80$) Phanteks or Noctuas.

I will put together a PCpartpicker list for you when I get home. in the mean time come up with a number of how much you want to spend
