    i5 6300H.
     
    You can look on the Intel Ark to see all the CPUs and filter it to find that type of stuff.

    In your case I highly advice you save up to 200$ then you don't end up with a system that needs replacing extremely soon if you want it to play any recent games or the like. You'll save yourself a lot of money in the long run by being a bit more patient at the start.

    You basically need to scour your local listings to see what you can find, and try to lowball. For an $80 budget you're really going to be looking at low end parts, but a 6600k and Z170 board should be possible, First gen Ryzen is also a really good plan since you'd actually be able to upgrade to some pretty nice CPUs down the line. I've seen full prebuilts with 3770s (the same speed as those Xeons) go for $80 total, just plug in and install an OS.
     
    Pretty much avoid eBay for this. low end hardware on there is pretty terribly priced. It should be considered a last resort since it's usually actually cheaper to just buy new. 
     
    I would highly suggest you save up a bit though, $80 is just incredibly low. A used A520 board ($30 used) and a brand new R3 4100 will be $130 and will be well over double the speed of whatever you can find for $100 used. And extra $20-50 will go a long way into making your system better and last longer than maybe a year before either something dies (the motherboards you're gonna get in a bundle sub $80 will be very sketchy) or you just need more performance.

    It's not on the official supported CPUs, but on gaming motherboards they usually aren't but (at least with Haswell and older) they do still usually work. As long s the CPU and board are the same socket it should probably be fine. 
     
    That said, if you don't already own one or both of these or are getting them for basically nothing, I wouldn't buy them. Getting something that is a lot faster is not really that much more money.

    Do not, under any circumstances, buy that Xeon for gaming. Dear lord, 2.4GHz boost clock x_X

    Honestly, Esports games are designed not to be very CPU heavy, so you shouldn't be utilizing the core count of the Xeon. The 750 ti is a stronger card than the GT 1030; but I'd still suggest getting the 1030 because of it's efficiency and driver support.

    The i5 should be better for gaming.
     
    If you end up getting the 1030 make sure to get the GDDR5 one and not the DDR4.

    Techpowerup is fairly good at describing video cards : https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/firepro-w4300.c2781
     
    Seems like the card would be on par with a GTX 460 / GTX 1030

    I have no clue why I am tagged in here nor have interest of knowing why, if this was supposed to be a joke, dont involve me in any of these attempted jokes in the future.
     
    OP, I would not suggest Firepro cards in general. If you can get yourself a HD7970/HD7950/R9 280X/R9 280 those will be a safer bet for gaming on a budget.

    So from exteremly limited information I found that it's closest competitor is the k1200 which is better than it by about 20% which is comparable to a 1030. So basically it's a gtx 650 ish. Aka pretty darn terrible for gaming.

    There's a 99% chance you'll have no issues. The subtimings are different between them (the first one is slightly slower), so you might need to enter subtimings manually of the slower kit, but I'd be very surprised if you run into any issues.

    Keenanzie reacted to Cyracus in DIY RAM heat spreader   
    Some memory chips are temperature sensitive, so for those memory modules heat spreaders are a good idea.
    For example Samsung b-die gets unstable at higher temps, so you probably want a heat spreader; while Micron E-die is practically impervious to heat, so it can go without just fine (assuming you're not shoveling voltage into it)

    Dont worry ram doesnt really get that hot
     
    Just put a fan over it if you are really concerned about temps
     
    Heck my ddr2 runs around 2v and touching the ram dies they are warm but not even close to hot
     
    Only reason to cool your ram is if it draws a ton of power or you are aiming for a wr on ram speed

    Look at the output, if it has VGA, definitely fake.
    There are no fake GPU without a VGA port, usually it's a reflashed old GT4XX.
    If it has Display port, definitely not fake. You can't fake newer gpu model id.
    Looking at the brand, probably a chinese market brand, so it could be genuine.
    Fake gpu heatsink are generic, without branding (aside from the fan stickers).
    Some example:


     
    Video on fake 1050ti which is a reflashed GTS 450.
    Take a look at the VGA port which is not present on the real one.
