Hello everyone,
First of all, english is not my native language so excuse any mistakes I may make.
So, i'm building my first pc ever, quite a vast world!! I think i've made my homeworks, but now I need some advices from folks that know what they're talking about!
So here's the list of parts i've come up with:
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: MSI Z97 PC MATE ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: Kingston Beast Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
Storage: PNY XLR8 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 960 4GB Video Card
Case: Corsair SPEC-01 RED ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: SeaSonic 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM (64-bit)
Case Fan: Corsair CO-9050016-RLED 52.2 CFM 120mm Fan
Case Fan: Corsair CO-9050016-RLED 52.2 CFM 120mm Fan
Total: $1201.82
Let's say I use my pc 75% of the time for gaming and 25% of the time for 3d modelling (like sketch up and form.z) while streaming at the same time. I have two monitors. I currently own a laptop and i'm able to play Cities Skyline at minimum settings at around 12FPS...yeah..i know...
I have 2 really important points
first, i want this pc to be upgradable in the future (replacement of cpu, gpu, ram etc...) when it will be out of date.
two, i want to be able to play todays games in the highest settings possible
(pretty sure you've never seen those points before!)
Games that I play (or want to play):
-GTA 5
- cities skyline
-the witcher 3
-and pretty much all the "open world, survival, alpha craft yourself a toilet" game out there (love those!)
My budget is around 1000$ (keep in mind that I live in canada, so everything that i'm buying is more expensive than in the u.s.) but as you can see, i'm flexible and can go a little over if it's worth it in the long run. Sorry if i forgot any important infos
Really appreciate your time,
Thanks in advance!!
