Not the best choice of CPU but unless he's playing Crysis at 4K I'm sure it'll be fine.

Also, if the 360 adapter isn't official, I'd get a wired pad or official one. The chinese ones do work, but are often fiddly to get going and can be temperamental when they do.

>>51915230
Hi, I'm Czechfag, and therefore I can't rely on PCPartPicker for GETTING the PC. However, I can try to assemble the parts and get them somewhere else. And I did.

I'm aiming for a gaming rig that can rival the PS4 or XBone. The point is to make something relatively similar in price to the PS4, it can be more expensive because I also need a work PC. This is what I got:

>CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K Black Edition Kaveri
>HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 1000GB
>Power: Corsair CX500
>RAM: Crucial 8GB KIT DDR3 1600MHz CL9 Ballistix Sport XT
>case: C-TECH OC-02
>Motherboard: ASUS A68HM-K
>GPU: ASUS GTX750TI-PH-2GD5

The total came out just under 200 bucks more expensive than a brand new PS4 and around 80 bucks more than a PS4 with same HDD and 5 games (a problem solvable by a few hours on torrent).

I am a n00b when it comes to foreseeing the problems a case like this might be, can any /g/entleman help me?
>>

Aren't there other things that use up the power supply? But I get that a 950 would take 400 with ease and headspace. Would it work if I do this:

>Power: LC Power LC420H-12 420W

Seasonic SS-350ET F3

Buy it in pieces based on whats on sale. Get your cpu last since Skylake is still overpriced due to availability.
For instance jet.com has a 390 g1 gaming for $250 atm, Newegg has 16gb ddr 3000 trident z for $90 which is nice.

They have some of the best customer service, OnTrac is apparently bad. You live in Southern Cali?

I had OnTrac for my last Newegg purchase and read the reviews and apparently they lost packages all the time, but I did the super eggsaver free shipping and it literally came next day after I ordered it, everything perfect and on time.

>>
>>51917086

I've heard they used to have the best. And yes.
My biggest problem is the delays. Board was DOA and they were good about it and replaced it. But it took over a week to get a new one sent out, and it never showed up. Took two hours to talk to anyone at Newegg after OnTrac ignored me. They're giving me 7 to 10 days for this to be resolved.

>>51917106

I'm never going to overclock and I'm not getting this to play newer releases. It was locked Skylake or locked Haswell, and a combo with the RAM made them the same price.

your mobo didnt support overclocking
your cooler was massively overkill
840 evo is old
980 price/power isnt worth it
500r too expensive for this build
850 gold is overkill

Unless you need downgrade to i5-4690k
If you want to crossfire go up to 1000w psu
If you aren't overclocking at all get a cheaper non k processor, an h97 motherboard, and change the cooler to cryorig m9i

hdmi is usually for tvs because it carries audio
dvi is usually for computer monitors
using either doesnt matter much because you dont use monitor speakers.

If its older you probably have a shitty 1080 21" tn panel like most people. A worthwhile upgrade imo is a 27" ips 1440p or wait for 32" 4k qdot later on.
