    GamerGuy got a reaction from Blackhole890 in 500USD Budget - Make my PC play games at 1440p/4k?   
    Hey!
     
    I would like to play games at 60FPS (At least) at 1440p or possibly 4k, not any game in particular just want to have the option to do so with some/most/all games.
     
    My current specs:
    CPU : AMD FX 6300
    RAM : 8 GB
    Motherboard: MSI 970A-G43
    GPU: 2048MB ATI AMD Radeon R9 200 Series (270 if I'm not mistaking)
     
    As a side note, my CPU and motherboard are reaching really high temps, hopefully with the replacements of the things I will get it will get fixed.
     
    Am able to go over budget if necessary. Highly appreciate it. 
     
    Question: If too many parts are going to need replacements, would it be better for me to just build a new computer and leave this one for my brother?

    e.g. 
    Part 1) selecting a product for review
    Part 2) writing a script / preparation
    Part 3) filming
    Part 4) editing (Edzel/Brandon could lead through their standard editing steps)
    Part 5) etc ...

    GamerGuy reacted to Sauron in Dad build- As cheap as possible please!   
    For some reason I couldn't find the 4130 on pcpartpicker  <_< I couldn't bother looking for it so i just took the cheapest i3 I found. That said your build isn't very different, the general concept is the same (although I would advise to get the cx430 if at all possible, I don't trust psus that are not at least 80+ bronze).
     
     
    The OP mentions 720p movies, which tips me off to the fact that he probably doesn't have them in dvd although those are like 15 bucks, so you can easily fit one on top of pretty much any build. And frankly, the integrated gpu is not fast enough that faster ram will improve the experience more than having 8gb instead of 4. Your build also had a celeron, which was my main gripe with it; those things bottleneck even the 740 you had in there, and give inadequate performance even for running the desktop.
     
     
    Glad to share my reasonment:
     
    1) the cpu
     
    I chose an i3 because it's the best cpu you can get with your budget without sacrificing other important things. It's a fast dual core with hyperthreading, meaning web browsing, light multitasking and even gaming if in the future you'll add a discrete graphics card will not be a problem. It also comes with integrated graphics, not great for gaming, but games will run, which you seem to be happy with
     
    2) the motherboard
     
    I chose the cheapest motherboard that had 4 ram slots and the b85 chipset. Nothing stops you from going for something 10 bucks cheaper, but having the option to upgrade your ram and having the better chipset can come in handy down the line. If you decide to spend less you can invest the rest in an optical drive.
     
    3) the ram
     
    I don't believe any pc should come with less than 8gb of ram in this day and age. 4gb are pretty tight for ANY use right now as windows itself uses a good chunk of it for caching and background processes. 8gb give you breathing room for any task your dad may ever want to accomplish.
     
    4) the case and psu
     
    I got the cheapest case I could find that had ok customer reviews and the cheapest 80+ bronze psu on the market. As i said, I don't trust psus that come with the case or are not at least 80+ bronze certified.
     
    5) the ssd
     
    As I explained in my previous post, i really believe it's crucial and makes the experience a lot better for anyone.

    You plug it into the PCI slot on your motherboard, which will look very distinct, and be in lien with the PCI brackets on the back of the case. Plug it in, and start Windows. Go to the ASUS website, and search for that specific model. Download its latest drivers and install it. You'll want to download the drivers on your PC and transfer them to the other desktop, obviously.

    This is what I'm currently using when I don't have access to a wire:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833704133
     
     
    It's a great card so far, my only complaint is that it isn't AC compatible, which is no big deal considering it was out before AC was a mainstream standard. It functions amazingly well on both the 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands. I've been using mine on both bands (5 where available) for about 2 years now.
    Again, I only use it when I don't have access to an Ethernet cable, so basically when I'm at a LAN party, or when I decide to move my rig into another room.
     
    When it comes to getting signal to the wireless computers, the closer to the access point, the better. Without getting into wireless theory and signal loss, a general thing to note is that when signal has to pass through drywall, you will lose half of your signal, and you also have to worry about wireless interference from microwaves, some light fixtures, and other 2.4GHz band devices. Basically, avoid the kitchen like fucking wildfire, and try to keep as few walls in the way as possible.

    Three options: 
     
    Run an Ethernet cable from the router to the desktop. 
     
    Buy a PCI Wireless card for the Desktop. (Decent ones are $30~) 
     
    Buy a USB Wireless Adapter. These work okay, and I use one, but I'd definitely do option one or two first if I had the choice.
