Posted

I'm making a gaming / dev pc, I recentrly started to make basic video games but I'm probobly going to get into some more hardcore stuff. But as the title says I have choosen some parts but i really want to get the price down to some where around 950 to 1000 Usd, shipping is now problem. But I am going to play alot of games for example CS Go, BF4, BF3, Cod and more. I do watch alot of youtube videos, And I plan on getting a 144hz monitor, right now I have an 1080p philips quite a crappy monitor if I may say so myself. Nvidia or AMD it really doesn't matter, I would like the best for what I like to do, I've heard that Nvidia is less performance for the buck but I really don't know.

Just because I want to build a PC and just have $700, but i will save at least $1850, to build  the PC I really want, It will take a long time but it will be worth it, but let me make you a build for that amount if you want

The reason I need a PC now is that i really don't have a good pc.

You can put 16gb of ram if you want to, or if you don't need an OS get a 770

 

I also don't have a good PC for gaming or anything. But if you really need it right now then go for it

Get an R9 290 instead. It's so much better.

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

you can later add 8gb of ram, add a second GPU, and change the PSU if you want SLI, and the board will support broadwell 5th gen intel processors

You should get the 4690K, so you can overclock with the EVO

Perhaps you can post build that does just that fitting into the $950 - $1000 budget the OP asked for.
