Hello, I've been researching a lot and putting components together for a home build computer for the last few days.
These are the specs I have finally came out with:
XFX ATI Radeon 6870 900MHz 1GB PCI-Express HDMI ( Just found out that this card is VERY LOUD. But it's quality seems to be rated good for the price. Any other card of good quality which doesn't leave you deaf? )
Intel Core i3-2120 3.30GHz LGA1155 3MB ( Looks like a good processor for the price, at least for me... )
Gigabyte Z77-DS3H S1155 Intel Z77 DDR3 ATX ( Some of the reviews discourage me from buying this card. Such as random noises coming out? )
HGST 500GB Deskstar 7K1000.C SATA-300 7200rpm 16mb ( Wow, had a hard time finding a decent Quality = Quantity hard drive which is cheap )
Antec 300 Three Hundred Two Tower Case - with USB 3.0 ( Older version here! Should I pay more for the newer version or just buy the older one? )
Corsair 500 Watt CX500 V2 Builder Series 80 Plus Power Supply ( Hmm, again, had a hard time finding a cheap, decent power supply. )
G.Skill 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333MHz 240-pin DIMM CL9 RipjawsX Red ( Looks good to me. I don't think I need 8 GB. )
Pioneer DVD-RW 24x SATA Internal - Retail Box ( I tend to trust things which are made by Pioneer. I don't use CDs/DVDs all that much these days with all the flash storage devices, but yeah. )
The price comes out quite high, about 600 Euros. I mean, I can resist a bit more and gather some more money but, it's hard these days so a cheaper version would make me happy.
Other than that, I really do not want a computer to handle excellent graphics. I'm the kind of gamer who plays for the gameplay and not for the graphics. If most of the games which are played these days work on Medium, I'm happy, very happy!
