Hello guys,

Im looking to buy a new pc for gaming (Csgo,LoL,Fifa). My budget is limited so i have come down to these two options:

Asus z97-m plus
i5 4670k
16GB ddr3 1600Mhz
1tb Hdd
22' 1080p monitor + keyboard and mouse. All this for 350$

Or
Asrock z97 anniversary
i5 4460
8GB ddr3 1600
Gtx 770 2gb
1tb hdd for 315$

If i go with the first option i can add a GTX 960 later for like 140$

The first option is your best bet. You’ll have an overclockable chip and twice the memory from the second option. And the 960 would do you well over the 770. Less power draw and better frame rates.

The second option uses a locked chip on an overclocking board which is a waste in my opinion. And 8GB of memory is fine for your games but I would take 16GB over it (obviously).
