600$ Gaming Rig Help appreciated

[kevin garced]

So you may think im mildly insane but i think its possible making a custom pc with keyboard mouse monitor and a tower with 8gb ram, an i 2120 and a hd7770. My purpose is to play minecraft and maybe record. I will not be running tekkit with shaders and a 512x texture pack so i dont need the best components. I think ill be good with far and fancy with a 64x tp with 30 fps while recording. I would appreciate if you coould tell me if this build is good and will perform what i want to and if i should keep saving i may plan on playing cod but not record just mess around. Thanks heres the build.

great pick, go for it

Is an amd worth considering though since i could get a quad core and slightly higher core clocking

If you are going to get a 7770, I wouldn't go with an amd, unless you plan on doing some video editing or something along those lines. Great PSU.

I plan on maybe recording some Minecraft but dont plan on extreme Sony Vegas and Photoshop so i think movie maker is fine. And is that case good it has decent reviews but someone on here told me it sucked?

Don't worry its not a bad case, but I would recommend this one

I believe it runs a bit cooler but it honestly makes little difference.
Its also a bit cheaper.

The biggest factor is your personal opinion, most of the time you can't go wrong with major brand cases.

And for the video editing, as long as its only occasional I would stick with your build, unless you do it quite often, then the video processing time might get a bit much and it might be worth it to get more cores from amd.

 

[kevin garced]

Yeah i plan on filming occasionaly but its not like everyday stuff. And i will change the case so the final build is this

Yes that looks like a solid build.
