Okay, so this is quite the question, well not really a question, more of an advice thing.
I am building a total of three Computers for me and two close friends, and would love to have the community's input on the matter.
The first of the builds is mine that I will be using : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3bP4M
I plan to use it extremely frequently, and at the 4th quarter of the year buy another 8 GB stick of RAM and another GTX 760.
- Excessive streaming, internet usage, and gaming, with the possibility of uploading videos.
The second is the 1st friend who is on quite a budget, but still wants an entry PC that can give him bang for his buck : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3bKZM
He will use this PC less frequently than me, but still very much so, and he does not have any plans to upgrade until at least two years later.
- Basically an above average PC, that will be able to run new titles on low settings and "fun" games such as minecraft, Garry's Mod, and Team Fortress 2.
The final build for my 2nd friend is not on quite as much of a budget, but still is trying to keep it as reasonable as possible while still playing new games on medium to high settings : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3bPl9
- excessive usage all-round
- me (i5-4670k) and 2nd friend (FX-6300) have a bit of room to wiggle with money, but the AMD Athlon friend can't go over 600-650$, and would like to keep it around 500$
- I have told them that the best research is done yourself, but one is too lazy to do it, and another is too busy. They trust me, and i want them to have an enjoyable experience.
- Thank you for the help, everytime i ask a question on here i get lightning fast responses, and extremely useful information.
- TL'DR : i am building 3 computers and would like advice on the builds. price ranges are Athlon: 400$-650$ FX-6300: 600$-800$ i5-4670k: 900$-1050$ for start, and a maximum of 1300$ overall.
