Fuck you /g/, my next build will be an AMD cpu/gpu build.

You're not going to be playing new games because your CPU can barely run Denuvo.

If you're really poor and if a computer this modern is your first gaming PC then start pirating the older games you missed out on.

I have a friend with an i3 2120 and hd 7950.

He got it in a pre-built dell. Won the auction for ~A$95 for the full pc. He just changed the power supply, cut up the case, and squeezed the HD7950 in there.

Handle bf4 on ultra settings ~60-65 fps.

Of course, he's not op since he only wanted a pc to play bf4 with us, so he's pretty happy.

still serves me well until today, even most new games I can play after finding some moderate settings. Also the system is incredibly quiet and cool. No remorse

This is the stage where Nvidiots usually break. If they encounter logic they cannot comprehend they behind to heat up and start mumbling about poorfags, it boggles the mind how somebody could be so deluded, in their contrived sense of conception on how the world works. it's amazing.

So what's all that nvidia vs amd shit about
I'm not that much into this shit but I simply bought xeon e3 1230v3 + radeon hd 7950 pcs+ about 3 years ago and everything still works fine and almost every game runs on high/ultra 60fps1080p

Amd is cheaper than nvidia I think? Is that what this is about? Basically iphone vs android?

So amd haters, everything works for me
Any reason I should have gone nvidia?

meh, it doesn't run shit at ultra but a mix of high and ultra settings around 70 fps is a-okay
>>
>>55006858
Honestly don't even care if it's on low settings, as long as its 1080p 60fps I'm pretty happy.

If you want a PC to perform well in demanding games, you have to be willing to spend a bit more.

380x bro. Got a 6600k memelake though, shit runs buttery smooth except on retardedly ultra-high settings. Might go Vega if it turns out to be worth.

Get an i5 and pair it with a 480.

I have an 8350 and it's really not that great since most gaymes use only 2-4 cores anyway which actually makes it weaker than intel's i5's and i7's.

OP you could always just find a cheap i7-3770 and just put that in. I got one off eBay for AUD$198 and works great, was pulled from an office machine. I upgraded from an i3-2100 which I had been using flawlessly since it's release and worked great with all the games I played. Most recent game I was playing on it was Street Fighter 5, getting 60fps with the HD5850 I had with it, settings I'm sure I set to low though with it.
