rngr Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 No. You are looking to build a new rig. Start there. Steve and OgreTV like this Link to comment
Goldberg Attorney at Law Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Do not buy a rig from cyberpower, alien, etc. Unless you don't care about spending a premium for not having to put it together. Even then I would advise against it. They charge a sizable premium over putting the parts together yourself. Start here: http://www.build-gaming-computers.com/ http://pcpartpicker.com/ If you can put together legos and follow the instructions in the above link you will save a good chunk of money. My first build took me about 2 hours to go from parts in boxes to windows installed and ready to rock. BaDaBiNg_10-8, OgreTV, Steve and 1 other like this Link to comment

Thought the i7 has a bit more clockspeed but not worth spending on if specifically for arma Le Razoir likes this Link to comment

Thought the i7 has a bit more clockspeed but not worth spending on if specifically for arma There isn't really any game I can think of that really takes advantage of four cores. Plus most people who get i7s have 4 cores. An i5 is generally just fine for gaming but it also doesn't cost much more for the upgrade. Especially with the budget this guy has, it would only benefit him. Although there aren't many, but more and more advantages are coming from having the ability to use hyper threading. The use is limited for the most part at the moment but Bohemia and many other developers are aiming to get more use from it. Anyhow, yes 100% build the pc yourself. It's easy, you learn something, you get a better build from your budget, and you feel accomplished afterwards. Unless you accidentally open the cd drive while installing windows and fry your motherboard. Link to comment

Ogre can attest this is wise advice Ogre bought his pc, and it was expensive. Found out for the same price he could have easily afforded some of the best parts out there if he did it himself. Goldberg also has great suggestion, sites like the ones he linked can tell you what part will fit, and mass order the parts for you. Awesome people here. Link to comment
