Building a mATX Gaming PC

Dark Templar · Apr 13, 2015

Hi guys, I would like your opinion about this build:

I want this build to play Dota 2 @ 1080P, and maybe another games, that's why I choose the GTX960. I really love the way that the motherboard has the same colors of the VGA

Or maybe an Mini ITX build with the 250D, like this one:

Thanks for helping me to choose wisely.

If you plan to do nothing more than 1080p with lower intensity games, the builds are fine. Nvidia will be releasing 4GB 960s though and they will last longer and be better for more intense games.

Build is okay, I would get this psu instead http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151124&cm_re=seasonic_450-_-17-151-124-_-Product

jafrankl :

This build is midrange, I don't think he will be able to enable stuff like ultra textures in games like Far cry 4 or watch dogs that will use the VRAM...

This rig enough for Dota 2...

Thanks for helping me! I bought the 350D, now I'm behind the other parts, I have another question, an Intel G3258 would bottleneck the MSI GTX960? Or the Intel I3 will do it really fine?

Dark Templar :

Some games may play better with 4 threads however some games might play better with 2 cores over 4 ghz which is possible with an OC. Some websites claim they have overclocked the G3258 to 4.7 Ghz with a decent cooler...
