Hello there guys.
I'm sick and tired of my laptop perfomance, and don't want to buy a new one. So instead I decided to build a budget PC which probably be as twice as fast a laptop for the same price. I decided to buy from ebuyer.com and amazon.co.uk, prices at overclockers.co.uk are higher.
So let's start. I have configured the following:
Mobo: MSI H77MA-G43(micro ATX) 59.12£
CPU: Intel i3-3220 89.90£
RAM: Kingston KHX1600C9D3K2/8G 41.72£
HDD: Seagate 500GB 6gb/s 43.07£
GPU: MSI HD7770 89.99£
Optical drive: Samsung SH-118AB 11.06£
Case: Cooler Master Elite 344 USB 3.0 32.99£
PSU: Corsair 430W Modular 38.53£
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master TX3 Evo 18.91£
Case Fan: Cooler Master 80mm blue 5.50£
Total: 430.78£
My main goal is to play source Games(CS:GO and TF2), Need for Speed World, League of Legends, World of Tanks preferably at smooth fps(~60) and newly released games(like Dead Space 3, oncoming GTAV and Crysis3) at least at medium settings. I planning to get a 1440 990 monitor or even a 1366 768. Any suggestion on the build? I was thinking of a faster and more reliable WD Black but it's much more expensive. Also I was thinking of a HD7850, but the cheapest I can get is 131.99£. Waiting for your opinion, cheers.
