I've been tasked with putting together two budget builds for two friends, one games at 720p the other at 900p. Games would include skyrim, civ 6 and low demanding shooters.
At $375 I was able to manage the following with both used and new parts
i7 3770
8GB DDR3
GTX 590
CX750 (2017) psu
256GB SSD
How do you feel this would game at 900p today? Or would this be better suited to my 720p friend? And I hit the drawing boards again for 900p. I had a chance at a GTX 690 at $85 but didn't pull the trigger quick enough and lost out to another bidder. I know all the disadvantages of the 590 but I'm getting it for a scant $58
