Ok , I will link the parst list im working on, and I will also just include the parts here for ease of access. Here is an overview of what I will be using the pc for: This will be a gaming pc, I hope to play recent / new releases on medium or higher and achive 60-120 fps, ive included a moniter and keyboard in the build for myself and wont change those components.
What im looking for in advice, is any thoughts on part combos I have made, any recomendations on how to get the same preformance for cheaper (ive tried really hard so I dont know....I cant find better personally, but im new to this).
I am also concerned about bottlenecking at any point, so if someone notices if/how/where it may bottleneck I would seriously apreciate being let know before I make an uneducated call on what to buy.
Notes:
- My overall budget it 1450$ (canadian) taxes and shipping IN
- I will be ordering all of these parts from ontario (probbaly from canadian suppliers unless there a are american alts with cheaper/free shipping)
- I intend to overclock EVENTUALLY if nessicary
- Unless needed, I am ok sticking to one 8gig ram at 2400 speed to upgrade to 16 later
- Not buying an OS
- Although looks are nice, bang for the buck is the goal here
- I have a number of old HDD to throw in if i need bulk storage allready, as well as an old CD drive for installing drivers and stuff durring build
- I hope to purchase this pc farily soon
(I used pc part picker only to source parts for ease of compatibility, im willing to use other places, howerver i dont know how to check compatibility)
