So, i'm trying to build a system that'll last me (well, as long as possible, really!)
i have chosen the following poorfag items -

CPU - Intel Core i5 4460 quad-core (with stock fan)
Motherboard - MSI H81M-P33
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3
HDD - Seagate ST1000DM003 1TB 7200rpm
Literally 10$ keyboard-mouse combo

Will it do the shitposting easily and for long?
Do i need anything else?
Should i replace any (and all) items with better value-for-money items?

I have got money, but i don't really want a GT980ti cause i don't even into gaymen.
I just want to shitpost on 4chan.
>>
>>51837228
I just want something that'll take basic muh-animu playing video software for the next 7-8 years. and hopefully any OS of 2020.

the price range for replacing items is +/- 10% of what the items i've posted in OP cost.
>>
A PSU and a case would be something you didn't list.
>>
Why not a pentium dualcore cpu?
>>
>>51837265
Oh, i already have a cabinet with smps, so not something i need.

anything else you'd like to suggest?

>>51837267
i want it to to be somewhat modern spec'd, also, i don't think i'd find any on amazon.in.
>>
if you're not gonna game just get an AMD cpu or apu

i'll sell you my old one, perhaps...
>>
>build a system that'll last me
>no SSD
>>
>>51837275
>AMD cpu
I'll look into what i can find on amazon and ebay.
as long it can take latest windows of 2020.
>>
>>51837291
>SSD
but why?
all my previous HDDs have lasted me well into my next "new system time" frenzy
>>
>>51837300
because SSDs shit on HDDs for performance
>>
>>51837274
How cheap can you find a X5660 (or X5670) and a good motherboard? 6 core + 12 threads.
>>
>>51837315
and are expensive at price-per-GB.
alright, alright, if you are insisting so much, may be i'll look into one.

>>51837323
let me amazon. get right back to you.
>>
>>51837293
no need. do you have paypal? i will give you a very good price, motherboard included
>>
From what I've seen, AMD is usually cheaper in India. Look up the FX-6300, or an A8-7600

Yeah, I see the A8-7600 is Rs 8k on flipkart. You could even do some basic gaming on that. I don't see the A10-7850 as beiing worth the extra 3.5k.
>>
>>51837345
sorry, no paypal.

>>51837323
i'm not really coming across anything.

anyways, i have wasted 6 hourse now in coing up with the build i have posted above.

here's the price list as well for my indian friends -
CPU - Intel Core i5 4460 quad-core - ₹ 13,985.00
Motherboard - MSI H81M-P33 - ₹ 3,200.00
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 - ₹ 3,208.00
HDD - Seagate ST1000DM003 1TB 7200rpm - ₹ 3,398.00
TOTAL - ₹ 23,791.00

>>51837354
>8k
well that's actually quite a difference. thanks, i'll look into it.

also, it doesn't really have to be that cheap.
Could you guys look into my OP and suggest any replacements that are literally better-performance-for-the-same-price
>>
>>51837323
The processors might be cheap, but X58 motherboards cost A TRILLION MILLION dollars.

And it's old tech. It still performs okay, but low-end new generation parts get you similar performance for similar price, plus 6GB/s SATA, USB3 and what not.
>>
Get an unlocked CPU.
>>
>>51837354
i have never used AMD processors and from what i have heard - the cheap cost usually reflects in the performance - this is why i went for i5 4460.

Are you really sure A8-7600 is actually a goat buy as per the cost reduction?

I mean, like i said, it's not that i can't shell out a few more shekels, it's just that i don't want to waste money (i know, i know, indians are worst than jews when it comes to money)
>>
I actually just made a build yesterday called the designated computing parts, aka the pooinloo machine
it's bretty fast
>>
>>51837393
X58 costs a ton, but the general 1366 server motherboards can still do fine and those are cheap.
>>
>>51837422
checked

literally a 100$ shitposting pooinloo machine.
good list anon.
>>
>>51837421
amd processors are bad for gaming, for streaming and shit they beat intel
>>
>>51837441
<3 i found a cheap monitor that'll make it 199$ unless you already have one
>>
>>51837422
I like mine better:
>>51832243
>>
>>51837453
alright.
i'm actually comparing AMd processors with intel counterparts right now.
hopefully with inputs from you guys, i'd have a final build list ready by the time for my evening streeshitting venture.

I'll obviously buy it at the last of the month - maybe i'll get christmas or new year discounts.
>>
>>51837462
I already have LG 19" 1366x768 monitor.
i'm good, thank, man..
>>
get an i7 6700k OP
>>
>>51837479
it literally costs about as much as OPs entire build here in streetshittingstan
>>
>>51837497
quit being poor
>>
>>51837469
too expensive for a poo2loo machine, discarded
>>51837477
you're welcome my poopy handed friend, checked
>>
>>51837331
SSDs are meant to have the OS and your main programs installed on them, so you can boot and start up programs really quickly. It saves lots of time, my Xubuntu boots up in 3 seconds, and the Wangblows boots up in 8 seconds (fast boot turned off, ofc). And we didn't have talked about programs and games yet....

Even though the price-per-GB is high, they're worth to buy.
>>
>>51837504
Take out the 7870 and it was $175. (with a 7570)
>>
>>51837502
i could literally buy a macbook pro for shitposting on 4chan - but my parents raised me to be efficient and perfect in whatever i do. You should see my turds every morning in my street - literally perfectly shaped.

>>51837531
then i'd have to upgrade the build into mid-high spec.
SSDs for a literal shitposting machine seems overkill. i'm sure can wait 10 seconds more for the system to boot up.
thanks for shilling though.
>>
>>51837562
sorry, we didn't realize you were a half-breed. continue with your peasantry.

That's unfortunate

actually not bad.
thanks.

could've been worse.
could've been keked by niggers.
could've been a nigger.

I use this processor on my meme gayming rig. Get an i3 and an ssd for loading them Chinese cartoons faster.
>>
>>51837675
are you a rapist, bychance? i hear all indians are rapists.
>>
>>51837228
>>51837256
I'd almost wager you don't even need that kind of shit for a shitposting/media machine, it feels like diminishing returns are mounting as time goes on and even an i3 will probably be plenty capable for that use case in 2020

>we're already thinking about 2020
kill me
>>
>>51837562
Have you had an ssd?
It isn't just loading times. The entire system feels more responsive. Websites open faster, etc.

i was first gonna go with this but i was told i shouldn't buy outdated stuff
>>
>>51837757
buy a different make of that r9 390 and use the money you save to get a cpu that won't completely bottleneck it
>>
>>51837772
how about i5-6500
>>
>>51837228
sounds almost exactly like my system. although i have an SSD and i strongly recommend one.
keep in mind the H81 "officially" needs a bios update to run 4460. mine (ASUS) didn't however, and it's much older than this one
>>
>>51837747
At least from looking at passmark, the new skylake i3s blow my Xeon E5507 DD out pretty good by about 2000 points, and I have no problem running Windows 10, Firefox with 80+ tabs, Steam, Spotify, VMware workstation with a VM or two, and maybe a shitty game if I'm in the mood.

So take it as you will, if you're really trying to go as cheap as possible it might be a good idea.

alright how does this look for 1440p gaming?

>>51837757
that motherboard has PCIe 2.0
>>
>>51837790
okay thanks for the input.

>>51837802
yeah, i'm already looking at i3s now.
>>
>>51837830
Downgrade to a H170 motherboard if not overclocking.
2x8GB ram is more future-proof nowadays.
I don't know about that choice of case. Looks like crap.
>>
>>51837830
would a 6600k really be out of your budget? It's really overclockable. mine's sitting at 4.6 stable and cool.
>>
>>51837900
is the stock cooler fine?
>>
>>51837939
they don't come with a stock cooler, as it is assumed you are going to overclock it.
>>
>>51837939
nvm it doesn't include one
>>
>>51837939
i don't think it even comes with a stock cooler.

Get 2x8GB so that you have slots free for future upgrade.
