Hey /v/. I have a quick question, I don't make to much money and was wondering if i could make a gaming PC that that gets 60fps 1080p on either high or medium. Maybe ultra? is it possible.
>>321018734
that is the vaguest, faggiest question I have ever read
What game(s) you fucking mongloid
>>321018734
yes
Yes, you can do this and more if you follow your dreams.
>>321018734
>no budget listed
>country not listed
>doesn't list games he plays
>>321019094
Around 300$ to 500$? Maybe bf4, counter strike and far cry 4
>>321019306
Just buy a console, you sickle-cell mother fucker.
>>321019306
Stick with console
>>321018734
THAT'S MY CASE!
>>321019306
You can afford roughly half of a gaming PC, and that doesn't account for the upgrades you'll need to make later on. Just buy a console. I don't care which one you buy.
>>321019306
You're going to need $800 at the least to get a good pc
He can get a PC that runs those games well for $500.
>>321020007
doubt it
I'm buying a GTX960 for christmas, it's not a shitty card is it?
>>321020386
Yeah, it's the worst one on the market, unless you only want to run Doom 2 and Solitaire.
>>321018734
>>321019306
>>321020386
are you trying to troll us
are you memeing us right now
because i sure feel meme'd
>>321020465
>>321020674
Honestly it was a half legit question since I'm upgrading from a GTX560 and an old q9400, I know some people throw around the term "memecards" so I was just checking if it's shitty or if there's a better alternative.
>>321021058
how much are you looking to spend for a GPU?
and do you want only an nvidia card?
>>321021309
Probably $300 max, keeping in mind I'm Ausfag with price hikes.
And I'm open to other cards, yeah. I've only ever had Nvidia though so I know jack-all about others.
>>321020386
It's a very underwhelming card. You'll be able to run CS no problem but to give you a general idea of where you'll be at,I bought a 960 and I can run Witcher at high-medium at sub 1080p and sub 60fps

This is about as good as you can do on your budget, unless you're willing to buy used.
Speaking from experience, the R9 270's more than enough for high settings at 1080p in all of those except MAYBE FC4, and since all Skylake chips can be OCed now there's a chance your board will get OCing unlocked on it too down the road.
You'll have to keep in mind that FC4 refuses to boot with dual core CPUs, but I'm sure there's a patch that bypasses that arbitrary limitation.
>>321021676
if you can afford a gtx970 or a r9 290x, you cant go wrong with those
if not, then get a r9 380
make sure you have a big enough case
it really comes down to what kind of stock will whoever sells it to you have
Is a gtx980 a good card or a meme card?
>>321021676
>>321022391
you can also go for dual crossfire r9 270
idk, anything is better than a 960
>>321022907
its a worse, cheaper 980 ti
I need a new graphics card. I also need a new fan because my current PC basically catches on fire and sounds like a vacuum when playing games.
My budget is $400.
how is this not a thing
>logicalincrements.com
ur whale cum
>>321024113
get a phantom 410 and a gtx 970
>>321026102
>GTX 970
I thought that was a memecard?
>>321026102
>970
don't do this
get r9 390x
>>321026165
>r9 390x
don't do this
get r9 fury
>>321026165
>AMD
>>321026165

>>321026165
>>321026298
here's your (you)
>>321019306
Yes, you'll have to get a few components (gpu mostly) second hand though. This'd be easier to accomodate if there was a sale like black friday.
I will put something together and post it here
>>321022025
Can non-k chips be overclocked on Gigabyte boards? I thought it only worked on ASRock boards.
>>321026392
anon wants a graphics card and cpu cooling for 400$
a 410$ card is already over the budget
>>321026563
then get 390 and a hyper 212 evo
>>321026536
It was initially ASRock only, then MSI started supporting it, and now Asus and Gigabyte support it now too.
>>321026642
not bad either
>>321024113
r9 390 if you vote for the red team
gtx 970 if you cant find drivers by yourself
and change the case, go for water cooling or get the hyper 212 evo like anon said
>>321022025
Setting him up with a dual core a good idea? Even an older gen i5 can be cheap
>>321018950
And more?
>>321019306
I just built a new PC for ~$700
it can run all current games on Ultra with no drops in fps
I see everyone here picking up a refurb 970 for 200 but I never get that deal
there's a lot of shit coming next year that will be pretty big advances (zen, dx12, artic island/pascal) that will really shake up cpu/gpu prices so it would be best to build it then
>>321027323
Please don't start this shit again... A 290x can play most games ultra at 60 fps constant but not all. I'm tired of seeing people say this as if they're trying to convince themselves its true.
>>321027323
And what would those frames be, 40-50?
>>321027639
I don't have a 290x tho
>>321027669
60 I have a shit monitor tho, and wasn't included in the $700 price point,
my monitor can't even into 1080
>>321027748
You spent 700 and are using a sub 1080 monitor you had sitting around? You know what a decent monitor goes for right?
here's a build for you, OP. you're welcome :)
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/z2zKvK
>>321027901
~$100?
I'm gonna buy 2 of them after xmas
>>321018734
>>321026471
It's $520, you can probably get it a little bit cheaper if you look around more, I don't know of any american sites for computer parts than Newegg so you may have more luck. I recently built my GF a similar budget build so adapted it for you (main difference being she has more ram and an i7)
This'll run all the games you listed on high / ultra at 60fps without a problem, you can then upgrade the GPU and RAM when you want to. The 670 is a solid card for your budget.
Here are some links to benchmarks for the 670 if you're unconvinced, you don't have to listen to everyone saying get the latest shit.

Don't be afraid to buy pre-loved parts. Got my GTX 980 for $250 (with 11 months manufacturer's warranty).
>>321028095
>>321027905
>4 storage devices
madman
>>321028254
one m.2 drive for OS and regular applications, one m.2 drive for games I want to load super fast like GTA V, and 2 6TB drives for 1080p Movies and TV shows, 1 for each category. Made sense to me.
>>321028139
where the fuck are you people getting these from
>>321019306
>>321018734
i3 + 8GB + GTX 750ti 2GB + 450W 80+ Bronze CPU + pirated W7 Ultimate x64.
Screen, KB and Mouse from a trashbin.
cost: 500$ tops. Gets you med-high / 1080p / 60fps
>>321018734
Literally any shit pc can run everything at 60fps 1080p. Pick out the cheapest parts you can find and add in a 970.
>>321028089
You're about $50 off your own added total there buddy
>>321028501
Online trading forum. Seller is a reviewer and was clearing storage space. Used it for 2 hours at the most but was about to do GTX 980 Ti reviews and had no room for any more GPUs.
>>321028647
Oh, and that import charge
>>321028253
>>321020286
it has drawbacks, yes. Temperature, durability, and the fact that every 5 hours it restarts on its own, then restarts while restarting while restarting while restarting..
>>321028596
*390
Whoops made a mistake
>>321027193
The i3's more than enough for most games, and it can just be OCed later on to match an i5.
>>321027323
No it fucking cant. A MOBO/CPU/GPU alone that could run that would be over 1000
>>321029457
For most games atm but you'll need four cores soon enough
