Hello guys, I am new to this forum community. However, I'd like to go ahead and ask a question. I am currently thinking of buying this computer. I usually play a lot of multiplayer games such as Battlefield 4, ROBLOX, and Fallout 4. On my old computer I had the first generation of i7 bloomfield 950 w/ Nvidia Geforce GTS 450 and ASUS Sabertooth X58 which lasted 6 years for me it served me 24/7 with no problem until recently when it was dying I realized I needed to buy a new computer. I have talked with some computer technician however I'm afraid I need more than one person's advice. If you could all give me an advice I would be gladly happy.

This is the link to my computer specifications that I am thinking of to buy: https://gyazo.com/e0209d2d28518824e00668f26b5890ba

The price is 1380 dollars.

My greatest concerns and needs are:

- I want to prevent overheat because I live in an area where it gets hot. (I do not plan to OC it anyway because it reduces life time and it sometimes give complications.)

- I want to be able to play at a good Frame Per Second rate with upcoming new games similar as Battlefield 4, Hardline, Fallout 4, those kinds of games that FPS and Graphic really do matter.

- I also am interested in using SSD for Battlefield 4 as I have heard it helps with the loading for games as well. (I'd like to also know how much GB I would need for the SSD?)

The computer technician said also that GTX 950 would just do fine however I have read and saw some reviews in Youtube that it slightly changes the FPS quality. Should I get this computer? or downgrade to 950 as it will just do fine? or I shouldn't get this computer at all anyway...?

What do you think? I would like to implement your opinion! Thanks for your time!

Sincerely,
Yoel

If you live somewhere it's hot, those prebuilt cases won't be any good, as they all have garbage ventilation/cooling.

You're seriously going to want to build a computer yourself here. (unless you wanna pay any extra $300-500 to have someone else build it for you)

Besides those games you listed, which don't need an i7, why do you think you need an i7?

Well first off you have made a true point regarding the case and pre made computers as they do not always provide the best offerings that you need. At my area where I live in Israel has import fees and tax unlike in USA where you can easily order online and build it up in 5 days all set. It truly sucks and leaves me to very little choice. So I have decided just to go with pre made and have our technician fit in good fans and 3 years warranty. Therefore I need i7 processor hence i7 processes faster than i5 and helps with a lot of cases as I use a lot of programs that require a lot of processes such as Skype startup, ROBLOX Studio, and more software.
