I tried to solve the problem of the heat on the amd processor with a noctua cpu cooler. So guys what do you think of those build anything to change that wouldn't change the price (no put 20 more $ in this it's worth it plz) I tried to respect the 700$ 

 

EDIT: we already have the hdd of the old system and the ssd upgrade is the first on the list (just to don't overpass the budget for now)

EDIT2: this was my answer to the thread xbone or pc 

EDIT3: with those first comment I have changed the amd build ^^ the old case will be fine for the build so there is no case

Get an 8320, Source 210, and a better GPU.

[Manny Calavera]

both are exactly the same for gaming.

 

750ti is great budget card with low tdp... and thats about it. if you want to game, you have to spend more on graphics card.

haha always been my problem I just like cpu to much and I don't find gpu that usefull I'll look at that thanks

[Altaren]

I suggest you shift more of your budget towards a better gpu. Maybe an r9 270 if possible. You also dont need 90$ for a case, something like 50$ is more than sufficient imo.

[aidenrelkoff]

for a $700 build both those cpus are overkill, drop it down to a FX-6300 and a GTX 760/R9 270x

[AlwaysFSX]

haha always been my problem I just like cpu to much and I don't find gpu that usefull I'll look at that thanks

You can OC an 8320 easily to 8350 speeds...

Gpu is very useful in games Just get some cheap good case, there are plenty out there and you allready saved 70$ that you can direct toward better gpu like 7950 or r9 280 at 200$

 

i go make build

[Dude]

Swap out the noctua cooler on the intel build and buy an R9 270 or if you can afford it, an R9 280.

that's also what I would do I always use case that I got for free for my build

700$ is the max so yeah....

[Mateyyy]

For 700$, you can get better. Sorry, but I don't really have time now to make a full build, but just try something with an i5 4440 and a Radeon R9 270, that sounds like a better value to me.

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/NMqXVn update with you idea and with no case the old one will be fine

I know what I have done is not perfect and not even optimize cause I don't game on my pc's that's why I ask you guys ^^

[Altaren]

How about something like this? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/vpqXVn

You would be ditching cpu overclocking for a better gpu. In my opinion cpu overclocking isnt worth it unless youre spending crazy amounts.

EDIT: You can drop the HDD and the 280 to a 270 if you want the SSD upgrade. You also wouldnt need a new cooler right off the bat

Ok, I've made a quick build for you

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/zW2fxr

It's a little bit over 700$, but I think that you get some pretty good stuff.

[Manny Calavera]

cause I don't game on my pc's that's why I ask you guys ^^

dont ask, tell us what you will be doing with PC

[shujin]

dont ask, tell us what you will be doing with PC

I told you it's not a build for me it's a build for somebody who is gaming it's written in the first line of this thread so yeah... my pc's are more for photoshop and very light gaming so I don't have much knowledge on graphic card ^^

For gaming you want at least a 270. You can save some money and get a 7870, that's a last gen card but they use the exact same architecture. All they did was rearrange the circuit to make it more efficient.

You don't want to go overboard on the graphics card but you don't want to sell yourself short either. the 270/7870 are designed to max all current games at 1080p/60fps. They are pretty much at the sweet spot for gaming.

For the CPU you don't have to get a monster like an 8350, just grab a 6300 and overclock the hell out of it.

Your friend will be happy.

 

[CyanOG]

You can do much better for $700 you dont need a 8350 a 8320 is fine which is also overclockable
