PC for CS:GO (Turning 14 in June)

Paul Catamio · Mar 17, 2015

Hi, I'm going to turn 14 in June and I am recently getting into CS:GO but my computer can't really run it at decent FPS, I was wondering what PC parts I can get to run CS:GO 150 fps+ on max settings and maintain a decent budget. I also want to play a bit of H1Z1 and Day Z but I don't mind it at running on lower settings.

I prefer nvidia graphics cards and Intel processors and yes I do know how to build a PC.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Are you buying a 144hz monitor as you've said you wan 150+ fps but if your monitor can only do 60hz (60fps) then there is no need to go overkill.

In terms of DayZ it is an incredibly poor optimised game as it's still in alpha - you can throw a top of the range PC at it and you'll still only get 25-30 FPS in cherno and built up area's

Well it really depends how much you want to spend - which country do you live for currency?

This system is not overclockable but will provide a superb gaming experience for all todays titles.
