Need help picking parts for $1500-2000 Gaming PC Build

SloopsTheGreat · Nov 27, 2014

Hi,
I need help picking parts for my new PC I'll be building. $1500-2000 is going to be for components (I already have Peripherals such as mouse, headset, keyboard, etc.) I'll be using this PC for gaming. I plan on getting these parts during the black Friday sales so that some components may be cheaper. Please suggest some builds for me. Any suggestions on which monitor I should get is also welcome (<30 inches). The more suggestions the better. Please keep in mind that i'll also be recording gameplay on this.

Thanks!

This is mine it can run anything you throw at it at ultra graphics with many graphical mods and an ENB at 60 FPS with a minimum of 54 FPS, and no offense, but Velutch's specs dont even work together.

it works better than one 980 korc just add a hardrive i dont know what size he wants

Korc · Nov 27, 2014

Not necessarily. Two Graphics/Video cards are only for multitasking, but one 980 Windforce could fly rockets into space.

uhh well i already have an ssd i'll be using with me. So really just the HDD is fine. Already have a 1tb but i dont think thatll be enough

Korc · Nov 27, 2014

500gb for an hdd is fine, 1tb is just good to have.
but if youre gonna be raiding your ssd and this pc will be MOSTLY for gaming, then just get a 500gb hdd and a 500-1tb gb sdd (1tb is stupid but its good for gaming)

Korc :
