Hi guys,
I am gonna build a gaming rig for me and my brother in this new year eve.But my budget is a nominal cut of 600$.I want to build the chassis and its inner parts only.Basically we are not hardcore gamers type (playing every new game at max details and high resolution) but would like to play all the new games at least at medium details @ 1360*768 or lower maybe.The games we prefer to play (for your convenience) are -
Farcry series (the upcoming 3 too )
COD series
Assasin's Creed series
Crysis series (the 3rd sequel too)
Metro 2033
Prototype (1+2)
Max payne 3
Valve's games (Black mesa/global oops/...)
This or this types what we would like to play.And we are not interested in overclocking or stuffs like unlocking cores.
Now, The only component I have been able to select this far is Intel i5 2500K 3.3 Ghz CPU which I think best matches my budget. Please suggest me the other parts especially the GPU. I am confused between GTX 650 Ti and HD 7850.
And one more thing.... I have a Samsung Writemaster DVD-RW (PATA). cAN I use this in the new chassis to save some money which i can invest on PSU/HDD ?
Please help.Thanks in advance.
