Good 350$ Gaming PC?

lukazec

Hey guys,I am saving money to buy a new rig because my current one is pure crap:

CPU Intel Pentium D 3.4GHz

GPU Nvidia GeForce GT520 1GB

PSU ASUS 400watt

MOBO ASUS P5LD2 /X-1333

RAM 4GB DDR2 RAM

 

So i am planning to buy this PC

 

CPU AMD FX6300 Hexa-core 3.8GHz (80$)

GPU AMD RADEON R9 270 2GB (130$)

PSU EVGA 430W 80Plus ATX12V/EPS12V (30$)

MOBO Gigabyte GA MA78LM7 SA DDR3 AM3 (50$)

RAM Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB DDR3 13000MHz (50$)

 

I cannot afford a penny more because all of this money is what I am getting for my birthday,for Christmas and what i am planning to save (Piggy bank strategy) and maybe sell some old GPUs and CPUs that i owe.

And is this PC enough for 1080p gaming for games such as

 

-Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare - Medium/High

-Far Cry 4 - Medium/High

-Assassins Creed: Unity - Medium/High

-GTA V - Medium/High

-GTA IV - Ultra

-Crysis 3 - Medium-High

 

On 30+ FPS :D ????

I think it will be more like low/medium even for GTA 4 but that's because of the really bad port from the 360.

Also if you only want to use it for gaming don't invest in a 6 core CPU, there is no game on the market right now that uses 6 cores. If i where you i'd invest in a CPU with fewer cores but better performance.

Looks ok, would 30+ easy, however, That power supply is a little weak for the 270. Maybe do a litle more penny pinching, or look around the house for spare change. a 450+W 80+ power supply should only be aroudn 10$ more, 

fx 6300 - sapphire dual x r9 270x - Zalman z9 - Evga 500B - Cooler master hyper TX3 - Win. 8.1 - Asrock 970 extreme 3 r2.0 - Crucial ballstix sport 8gb (2x4) - WD blue 1TB - some random optical drive for 11$

Hm dude,you should think a bit more about the future.I don't see the point in buying a PC that can't run games in like 2+ years.

Wow dude it seems like you don't know what you are talking about.This PC would EASILY run GTA IV Ultra 1080p 60FPS ;)

CPU: AMD FX 4300 would do very well, though!

PSU: Uhh, no. Corsair CX430M.

RAM: Uhh, do you mean DDR3-1600 or DDR3-1333?

Yep,I actually was thinking of a FX4300,but i think it would bottleneck my GPU a bit,and I wanna be safe for the next few years so I don't have to upgrade.

About the RAM i will see,I will buy 1333 but i don't think It will make much of a performance difference,only a slight money difference between it and the 1600 MHz

About the PSU i really do not know which one should I actually choose,so i will search a bit more for the right CPU at low costs
