This is a build that I have been wanting to do for the longest time, just never got the money for it, basically it started a while ago when fortnite was in the early days and people were listing "fortnite pc" on marketplace. Eventually I got curious and decided to figure out what the specs were, and looking at them you could run it on a ddr2 system, thats where the initial plan came from as with a 4 slot board you can max out the ram. Thats where the idea of just making a pure power build came from so here we are

 

Case and motherboard Dell vostro 420

CPU Intel Core2Quad Q9500

GPU Palit Nvidia GTX960

Storage, ADATA 240gb ssd WD1tb HDD

RAM 4x2gb ddr2 800mhz (adata i presume)

 

the only thing i am waiting on is the money for a replacement mobo cause the old one died on me yesterday

Is that a build you have or one you want to buy?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

its a build that im one component away from getting (annoyingly the board is the last thing i need to buy cause the old board i had died on me yesterday randomly)

Hope you're getting it for a bargain basement price

 

Things will be tough on that old core 2 quad, especially in fortnite
