Hey /G/ I asked this over on /V/ and they directed me here. I am currently using a laptop for "Hardcore gaming" I know it's bad especially since I run most games medium. So my question is what is the cheapest rig I can build for 1080p 60fps on ultra settings for gaming?

Use the sticky at the top, logical increments is a good way to buy balanced parts and give you an idea on your budget.
Also use PC Part Picker, its a good website for coming up with your build with prices from online retailers.
Off the top of my head I'd say an i5 is pretty damn good for everything without being too expensive, but if you have a tighter budget AMD might be a good choice.
As far as GPU is concerned, you're in a very good spot as AMD is releasing a VR capable card for 200 dollars very soon. It can handle 1080p at 60fps no problem for sure.
Get the fuck out you manchild. /v/ is cancer.

I looked at pc part picker earlier day but I don't anything about CPU bottlenecking or what ghz of ram.. that's why Im hoping to get help from you guys

actual good advice here op
recent i5 will smash any game you put at it and the new amd card sounds pretty good

That's why i mentioned Logical Increments which i s located in the sticky, it shows you which parts are balanced well.

Also, any ram is pretty much fine, 2x4GB sticks should do you well. If you get a motherboard with 4 slots you can easily upgrade to 16gigs later. G.skill NT series works fine for me without gayming heatsinks added on.
threw together a basic <1k build that should play anything and have room for upgrades.
