Is this build good?

FireClocks · Mar 22, 2017

It looks like my pc is getting old...
My spces are: GTX 750, AMD Athlon(tm) X4 760K Quad Core Processor, 7.95 RAM.

Is this a good build?

Intel Pentium G4560 3.5 GHz Dual-Core LGA 1151 Processor
MSI B250M Pro-VD LGA1151 mATX Motherboard
Corsair 16GB Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200 MHz UDIMM Memory Kit (2 x 8GB)
SeaSonic Electronics S12II Series SS-620GB 620W 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply
EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING Graphics Card (6gb)

I'm probably still missing some components, tell me which pls if you k!
So far this is costing around 565$
I mainly only play Overwatch at the moment and I wanted if possible to get over 150 fps in lower/medium settings.
I also want this computer to last for a while of course, and i'll probably not only play Overwatch in the future but for now thats wat i play the most.
I never builded a pc before too!

Whats your overall budget and location???

DRagor · Mar 22, 2017

Missing case

unless you had one from old PC.
3200 Mhz ram is overkill, as this mobo will run it at 2400 Mhz.
All is compatible.

The budget kinda depends on how long it will last for, but It would hurt my feels over like 850, being 950 the really stretched out version xp, if after like 2/2.5/3 years i just have to buy a new card and not an entire pc again it would be nice!
But i really only play overwatch atm so i could buy lets say a cheaper card and then later buy a better one if i play other games if you k what i mean. I live in portugal!

DRagor :

Oh its only the case!? nice! You confused me a bit on the next part tho Ahah, you mean that 16 gb of ram its to much?

DRagor · Mar 22, 2017

I mean you got too fast ram. Quantity is good. Speed is overkill.

Hellfire13 · Mar 22, 2017

Get this...will last you longer...

Thx man! It seems sooo good for the price it is xD! Cuz this pc I have at the moment I think it cost 500$! It shows on a youtube video that it will probably run overwatch at 74 fps epic settings 1444p!!! SO, how much will it be in 1080p on low settings?? Can't wait to try it out, if everything looks so good has it seems I'll buy this ty so much for making the build for me! i'm afraid i'll break something while mounting everything together tho, gotta go see a tutorial, Thx once again!

Acording to that link isn't 2 components missing from the list? One I think its the cooler the other one I dunno

Hellfire13 · Mar 23, 2017

The processor comes along with a cooler. The other one missing might be the Thermal Paste that you are talking about. That is relatively inexpensive. You can source it from anywhere, like this... https://pcpartpicker.com/product/sX4gXL/noctua-thermal-paste-nth1

FireClocks · Mar 24, 2017

Hellfire13 :

Ok Awesome! Thx

madmatt30 · Mar 24, 2017

You don't need thermal paste as the sticknintel cooler comes with it.

There are 2 things I would change in Hellfires build.
1 - the case - the xion is an OK budget case but a year down the line youll be looking at it wishing you'd spent an extra $20 IMO.
2 - either the board or the ram , the board only has 2 ram slots , I would either change the board for one with 4 slots , making a ram upgrade possible or go with 16gb ram from the off meaning youll never need to upgrade the memory.

^^ OP, you should take that advice if you can stretch the budget. Will be beneficial in the long run.

madmatt30 · Mar 25, 2017

Hellfire13 :

Whats funny is down to price changes your build is now coming in at $649 & my option changes bring it in at $642.
Always always pays to double check partpicker continously until youre actually buying the components - prices seem to change like the wind daily at the minute.

Hellfire13 · Mar 25, 2017

madmatt30 :

Wll, PCPP has become like the stock market lately...kinda

FireClocks · Mar 27, 2017

Oh ok cool! I haven't bought the stuff yet so thx for the suggestion! After the i5 is the i7 already? strange xp, but i think for now the i5 is good right, yeah probably

Hellfire13 · Mar 27, 2017

For that budget, i5 is plenty.

FireClocks · Mar 28, 2017

madmatt30 :

The video card is also different! Does it make any difference in terms of performance? Thx for the reply!

NO,I picked the cheapest decent aftermarket 480 I could find at the time,its $195 now though ,as I mentioned before prices change like the wind daily now.

FireClocks · Mar 28, 2017

If the components don't come from EU I'll take the risk of getting them like "confiscated" by the government and then have to pay extra money which can be a lot, when it says shipping included for which store is it? cuz there's a lot of them in that page

madmatt30 · Mar 28, 2017

at the moment the nitro 4gb is the best buy again.
