  1. Hello there guys..!! I was bored for the past one hour or so and decided to do a bit research and put together a $300 gaming rig with peripherals!!! This system is not for high end gaming but just having a playable experience on medium or low settings in most of the games. I just want the opinion and any edits or suggestions on this build. I will not be building this, it is just for some fun and to kill some time.

  2. I would love to have the Sagitta Spectrum Mouse because it has good dpi(which I am desperately in need of) and it also has programmable keys both these features will surely help me be more productive and RBG lighting is a boon. I currently have some useless wired mouse.
  3. 1)Pretty much yes considering your the only user. 2)RAID 10 will be easily possible without the requirement of a RAID CARD. 3)WD reds they are meant & optimized for NAS. 4)Yes & you can install and run games as well as programs.
  4. For RAID 6 you definitely need a RAID CARD. I recommend getting a Xeon E5-2620V3. This CPU is much more powerful than E5-2603v3. Also, note neither the processor nor the MoBo you have chosen has on-board graphics so you will have to buy some cheap used Graphics Card.
  5. The case is a little random, other than that this is beastly rig.

  6. You will have many bottlenecks as your PC is quite old, especially with your Graphcs Card & SSD because if I am not wrong your MoBo doesn't have SATA 3 port. It would be much better if you save some money, sell your current rig and get a completely new rig.
  7. Yes that is right, Mobos with 'LGA 2011 R3' are just the same as 'LGA 2011 v3'. I didnt even notice I suggested one of them :-P
  8. I am not a graphics card expert :-P The Hyper evo 212 is one of the best CPU Cooler that is there in the market, it is definitely not overpriced, it is not very loud as far as I know.
  9. SUPERMICRO MBD-X10SRL-F Server Motherboard LGA 2011 R3 ASUS P9X79 WS LGA 2011 Intel X79 Check this out >>>> http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007629%20600287814%20600016286%20600287817%20600453194
  10. For CPU I would recommend Xeon E3 1231 V3, It is a great CPU & will be perfect for your build. If you don't want to go such high end then probably you can just stick with i5 4460. For MotherBoard:- You can go for any LGA 1150 board such as GIGABYTE B85M-DS3H-A if you don't require ECC RAM. If you want ECC RAM then may be you can go for ASRock E3C224-V+. RAM:- 8GB (2x4 GB) Storage :- I recommend getting 2/3 WD Red 3TB Storage as these have the best per GB costs. PSU:- Choose the most reliable PSU even if it costs more, trust me it will be worth it. GPU:- if you choose to get the Xeon processor, then you will require a Graphics Card as the processor does not come with integrated Graphics, you can either get a MoBo with OnBoard Graphics or buy some cheap used GTX 610. You can choose to get a RAID card if you want to have RAID 5 or 6, but I wouldn't recommend such complex stuff considering it is your first build.
  11. Here's What I recommend you to get. 1) Processor :- i5 6600K. 2)MotherBoard :- GIGABYTE Z170-D3H 3) RAM :- 8 GB(2x4). Crucial/ADATA/Corsair/G.Skill any one of these brands, I'd personally go with Corsair. 4)Cooler :- Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212 5) Graphics Card:- GTX 960 or R9 380 6) Storage :- Crucial (BX100) 250GB SSd & WD Blue 1TB 7) Case :- Go for Fractal Design Define R5 Blackout Edition only if you want your PC to be silent(although there won't be any great amount of difference). I'd recommend you to rather go for Corsair Carbide 200R. 8)PSU :- The Power Supply you chose was definitely an overkill, you will definitely not require that much of wattage unless you plan to have SLI/CF in the future. Even then I would not recommend buying a higher watt PSU considering your on a budget. Get a EVGA SuperNova 650W.
  12. www.theitdepot.com www.amazon.in www.flipkart.com www.snapdeal.com No, I don't have any of those.
  13. I googled and found out that all the Computer Hardware shops are spread out. I suggest you to call the shops near your locality and ask them if they are interested in buying. If your not successful then probably you will just have to use olx or Quikr for selling them.
  14. It is better if you try and sell in a local shop which is willing to buy. You can choose to sell on olx.in or quikr , but I don't think you will be able to get a buyer quickly. It will take you weeks before anyone even contacts you. Which city do you live n?
  15. Sell ur CPU & get this build PCPartPicker part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/H7gf6h Price breakdown by merchant: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/H7gf6h/by_merchant/ CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor ($174.89 @ OutletPC) CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i GTX 70.7 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler ($104.99 @ Amazon) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B85M-DS3H-A Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($49.98 @ OutletPC) Memory: Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($77.59 @ Amazon) Storage: Crucial BX100 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($69.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($49.89 @ OutletPC) Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 390 8GB Video Card ($329.98 @ SuperBiiz) Case: NZXT S340 (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case ($64.99 @ Directron) Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($65.98 @ Newegg) Total: $988.28 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-02-19 08:10 EST-0500
  16. You can probably sell it for Rs 9,000 and add in a little more money and get either a i5 4460 or i5 4690K(if you want to overclock).
  17. When your investing $2500 on a computer, you definitely want it to last quite a few years(around 3 years atleast). The latest core i7-6700K is the latest processor by Intel, and you can easily expect it to last a few years. It has a really good price to performance ratio. If you want to spend more on the processor, you potentially won't get anything much more than a few more cores and a little higher clock speed and the additional money spent on that processor will not directly translate into noticeable performance. Considering you will be using this mainly for gaming, the core i7 6700K should and will be just perfect for you. I do not recommend anything else. I suggested the 6700K cause you wouldn't require anything else. it is sufficient for almost everything However, if you want a complete SUPER HIGH END rig, for bragging around, you can check this out http://pcpartpicker.com/p/wX3JjX . Also note the TITAN X isn't that great compared to 980Ti.
  18. Check if you have bought compatible RAM sticks, try putting the old one and check if it boots up. There are a few MoBos which don't even support higher frequency RAM sticks. Make sure you have connected the power cables to the GPU. Also, make sure you have inserted your monitor cable into your Graphics Card and not in your MoBo.
  19. I don't have any great contacts in US I think might as well make an investment for a little more powerful GPU, as I don't wish to keep upgrading every now & then. It would be great if you can help me ship a 950 or 970 :-) I have i5 4690 'non-K'
  20. @astrosheen I currently do not have a GPU, therefore all the work is done by my CPU. So, I guess I'll be buying a GeForce GTX 950. Thanks for your help.
  21. Thanks for your reply I shall be doing it in my spare time for some extra cash. So, you meant to say the 128 additional CUDA cores which I get if I buy 950 instead of 750Ti is worth it?
  22. My intention is not GAMING!! I shall be using this mainly for Video Editing. I plan to play games only sometimes .
