Hey guys I'm planning to build my own gaming pc and I was hoping to get some advice on the parts I should be purchasing from people who actually have some clue about this stuff!
Do not want to exceed $1200
basically this is what ive come up with so far:
CPU- Intel Core i5 2500K
RAM - G.Skill-NT 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3-1600
PSU- Corsair TX750
Case- Coolermaster HAF912 Advanced
VGA- 2G RADEON 6950 Sapphire
MOBO- Asrock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3
HDD: Samsung SJ 1TB
ODD: DVD burner
MONITOR: 23" LG W2343T-PF
Grand total approximate: $1179
Opinions? Ideas? Improvements?
I want to be able to play my games on maxxed out video settings (1920x1080), but I also more importantly want this computer to last (durable) and future proof, so i don't need to update it for about a solid 4-6 years. I do plan on crossfiring in the future when I NEED TO.
I just want the best value gaming for my money that i won't have worry about updating because it should be able to handle most games for many years to come.
Cheers,
