Are these computer builds good?

philip nasus · Oct 17, 2016

Hey guys I have recently gathered some money in order to buy a brand new gaming computer.However I do not know much about gaming computer parts and builds and that is why I came here.I can spent maximum 800€.So far people have suggested these builds to me :

1) Case:Aerocool Aero-800
Power supply:Be Quiet Pure Power 9 500W CM
Motherboard:ASUS H110M-A/M.2
CPU:Inter core i5-6400
Ram:HyperX Fury 8GB DDR4-2133 MHz
Hard drive:Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5'' SATA III (By the way I have heard that Samsung Evo 850 250 GB and I am thinking about buying this instead of the Western Digital one )
Graphics card: Palit GeForce GTX1060 3GB or a Radeon Rx 480 (I do not know which is better)

2) Case: Deepcool Dukase v2
Power supply:Be Q
Motherboard:ASUS H110M-A/M.2uiet Pure Power 9 500W CM
CPU:Inter core i5-6500
Ram:HyperX Fury 8GB DDR4-2133 MHz
Hard drive:Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5'' SATA III and the guy also suggested this Samsung Evo 750 (I guess he means I should get both)
Graphics card:MSI GeForce GTX1060 3GB ARMOR 3G

Please read these builds and tell me which is better or suggest your own.
Thank you in advance

P.S I play mostly league of legends WoW and Dota but I would like to play some other games like Gta V if the computer can support them.

For GTA V you will want to lower it around med-high settings to keep it around 60 FPS.

Nothing really wrong with the second build IMO , mediocre PSU but enough.

Yeah I should have been more clear I do not exactly have the money as cash I have been given a gift card from a local store here in Greece.Luckily I can tell them the parts I want and they can order them for me.However I need to decide what I want first.

Yeah my bad I should have been more clear.I have been given a gift card to buy from a local store here in Greece.After I have decided the parts I want I have to order them.

madmatt30 :

So what would you change from this build?Only the PSU?Which one should I get then?

madmatt30 · Oct 17, 2016

The be quiet is in all honesty good enough for that build .
If you have to use store credit for one supplier you could do worse.

Corsair cx450m would be better if you can get it (only the 450w model though , or 550w if its in budget) - the 430 & 500w models are nowhere near as good.

You're talking a 250w build there though so don't sweat it if you end up with the bequiet.

madmatt30 :

Well unfortunately I do not think I can get the BeQuiet since as I have been told they can order the parts for me as long as they have their products in their stores,which they do not.This means that I can choose between Nod Corsair and Aerocool PSUs.
Also since I would rather buy parts that are already in their stores rather than ordering them ( they might rise the price if I do so ) would a Corsair CX600 80+ bronze do the work?
Finally, I have read that the Radeon Rx 480 compared to the GeForce GTX1060 is way better. What do you think about that?

madmatt30 · Oct 17, 2016

I'd base my decision on GPU on price mate.
I'd personally take a 480 4gb over a 1060 3gb but that's personal preference , both cards are good.

Corsair CX is the lesser of 3 evils from those brands.
Great quality - no , manageable - yes.

CX 600 if you went with a 480
CX 500 is plenty if you go with a 1060.

seasonic is an acceptable brand in greece iirc? is the seasonic s12ii available or xfx ts?

Ok two more things and I am ready to go.1 instead of this motherboard ASUS H110M-A/M.2 will any of these work (i) ASUS H110M-D mATX (ii) ASUS A88XM-E mATX - FM2+ (iii) Gigabyte H110M-S2H mATX. 2 Any sound card recommendation?

madmatt30 · Oct 20, 2016

Any but the Asus a88 (its an amd chipset)
Why do you need a soundcard ?? The onboard audio on most boards is pretty decent.

Rather than spend on a soundcard , if you want to run a pair of studio standard phones or need an optical out, then spend the extra on a better motherboard with a better audio setup.
