I'm building a budget gaming PC that has an Intel Processor and an Nvidia GPU. But I'm not sure if there'll be any bottleneck or incompatibility so I wanted to make a thread here. Here are the PC parts:
CPU: Intel i5-4440
Mobo: MSI B85-G43
RAM: Patriot Viper 3 2x4GB
GPU: MSI Radeon HD 7850 2GB OC
HDD: Seagate 500GB Barracuda
PSU: Super Flower SF600A-14A 600W
Case: Fractal Design Core 3000
This totals at about 800 euros (about 1k dollars) in my country, and that's about as much as I can spend on it. I chose these parts mostly because I want it to be upgradable in the future (hence why I chose a 1150 board) and I chose a "powerful" GPU so it can last me for a while. Also I've had a lot of people tell me to go for an AMD FX 6300 or 8320 instead since I can OC it and get better performance, which I would gladly do, but the market here is dominated by Intel and the only decent board I found is 2+ years old. The case comes with 3 fans (front, rear and top) so it'll have good cooling. And, like I said, the only worries that I have are if this build will bottleneck and if there is any incompatibility (which I doubt).
