Ordering pc parts, need some advice


Ali

Recommended Posts

Hello

I am now tired of gaming on a shitty pc, where I get 30 fps if I am lucky on low settings. I have decided to order a new one, but I am not sure if there is something I should swap out in the build. 

Picture is in Swedish, but you should be able to understand which parts I picked.

The price when converted into USD: $ 1409.97

 

Thank you

Upgrade the power supply, its better to have more room for improvement. I believe my build has 1000w power supply and I'm only pulling about 700w. 8GB of RAM is low, I have that and I'm ready to upgrade to 16GB. Also, how familiar are you with overclocking, the K series of Intel is the overclocking version, so if you don't think your ready for that, go one tier lower. Other then that, it looks all good :)

Okay, I have one more question now. Seeing as I am not the finest strain of marijuana in the dispensary when it comes to computers, which one should I go for? The 970 I have picked above, or a 390x for 20 dollars cheaper? (https://www.netonnet.se/art/komponenter/grafikkort/amd/sapphire-radeon-r9-390x-tri-x-oc-8gb/219141.8988/)

Thank you

edit: This is what I have so far

Stay away from AMDs, I have one in the current build I am using, and I have a 770 on my other one and it is a different world, I myself will never touch AMD.
In addition, Nividia>AMD when it comes to arma so the answer is no, stick to the 970.

Okay, thank you Zoex. So I have now constructed two pcs, I will do some final tweaking later today before ordering. Which one is the smarter choice?

Price: $1475

 

If it would depend on me, I'd buy a i7 with any of those builds, they look decent, If to choose from those without changing anything I'd pick that one for the 6600k.

(Of course I am saying that if your main focus is going to be A3)

Okay, thank you Zoex. I think this is it

Hm... you'd might want 700 or 800w power supplier not 650, to avoid bottleneck and if needed for future upgrades.
Rather than that, I am jealous.
