Building New PC

lukalux · Jan 5, 2017

Hello guys, Happy New Year!
Could you suggest me some configurations... mainly for gaming and internet and i will make some YouTube videos...i want to play at 1920x1080 maybe at 2560x1080 if i get ultra-wide monitor...i want up to date components of course so i also want it to be futureproof and to work 5 years...for cpu i prefer intel but maybe i could wait 2 months for Zen...for video card i like amd / nvidia both but i would go for one wich supports newest directx or VR. I will use Windows 10 or 7 Ultimate.My budget is not big...600 euros max.
I am looking forward to your answers.
Happy Holidays

I'm sorry i went a little bit over your budget, tried to fit as much as possible.
If you can, you may try to search for a cheaper Case, reducing the overall cost of the build and fitting your budget.

Aside from that, it's a decent entry-level build for 1080p. Not really the optimal for that but still pretty capable.

Thanks bro...but why is this PC entry-level for 1080p? rx480 is high end card from amd while i5 6400 is more powerful than many other CPUs. Case is not a problem i could find smt cheaper in my country.

lukalux :

Not saying that your build is weak,
But i will correct myself, i'd say it's a mid-level.

It would, IMO be a very decent option if it was the 8GB version of the RX480, 6GB of the GTX 1060 or high end with a GTX 1070 for 144Hz @1080p

For CPU, i5 6400 is the least powerful Skylake i5 if compared to the others 6500 or 6600/K. I'd say a high would be the 6600K for that matter.

Althouh your build WILL run perfectly about any game @1080p. Don't worry

Thanks...what about 6gb 1060...is it beter than rx?
And what about i3 6100 ? Is it capable for 1080p or it cannot compete?
If i go with AMD i will go with 8GB version

lukalux :

Yes, the GTX 1060 6GB is better than both RX 480 versions IMO. There's a large debate pool on this RX480 vs GTX1060, it'd be best to take your own conclusions.

It is able, although not a good choice if you are looking for gaming experience. The i5 is the bare minimum for smooth gameplay even tho weaker in core speed as it has the double of cores than the i3.
