450$ with i5?

[DoctorKira]

Hello peoples,

so I did a post back in December 2013 and it kinda got dead, noone replied to it other than 2 peeps. ( now I know that I need to quote)

So I came up with this build:

CPU: i5 4670k

MOBO: Asus B-85G LGA1150

RAM: 4GB Corsair Vengeance Black

WD Caviar Black 500GB

Corsair 200R Windowed( http://www.skytech.lt/cc9011041ww-corsair-computer-case-carbide-series-200r-windowed-compact-atx-case-p-166966.html , don't know about this one, is it fake? That it's windowed?)

Corsair CX430

This all makes 450$.

By my understanding, it's an upgradable build? I can add more RAM and a GPU later. Reason why I'm building a pc without a GPU is that I need a pc in a hurry, and I want it to be pretty powerful in the future. I heard that HD4600 are pretty decent, so I'd stick with them until a GTX660.

My questions are:

Will this pc be enough for my games( LoL, FTB(Minecraft), some BF3 or even BF4.

Is putting a GPU inside easy as unplugging your pc, opening it, putting it in, closing it, powering and that's it?

Boi, this is quite an essay.

Thank you.

I would get something like a FX 6300 instead for your budget. Also location? I would say just save up to 850$-1000$ then buy a much better build.

[_ASSASSIN_]

I would recommend PLEASE get more money and get better components

Well getting an unlocked processor is defeated by not getting a Z87 motherboard. 

 

If you want to game right now just get a A10-7850K (If you live near a microcenter it be much better)

1. Just barely

2. Yes

 

Upgrade the PSU to 500w and change the 500GB Black to a 1TB Blue. There are also more things wrong with this build, but I'll let someone else take care of that.

Whats bad here?

You won't be able to play BF at a playable level I don't think.

You might as well get a non K cpu, that motherboard can't overclock. Or you could spend the extra $50 on a z87 board.

PSU which is extremely small for a high end GPU and ram

also you need Z87 to overclock

I would say go AMD with this cheap of a build because they tend to have better intergrated ghrapics especially with the Kavieri APU's

500w would be enough? Also if I overclock I need an aftermarket cooler so I will probably get 4670.

Then save up 850$+

Then save up 850$+

I have that right now, but here everything is +50$

How much would it be for a i5 4670K, Z87 D3H, GTX 770, Hyper 212 Evo,  CX500, and Corsair 230T?

What's wrong here besides PSU and HDD?

-K Chip, B85 motherboard

Shortcuts (NEVER a good idea with PC's)

An intel build making no sense in a small budget

The tiny amount of RAM

The fact that you wont be able to do anything with what you have planned

[TechTheWorld]

I would go with an FX-6300.

Intel integrated graphics are usually poop

Will this pc be able to run BF3(BF4)? Smoothly? And will it be able to host a small Minecraft server (5peeps)?

[needmorewood]

with that kind of build and the fact that ur going to play BF4 you should get an APU with and AMD card like a 265
plus 8gb of RAM
1tb HDD

This will max BF3/4. Not sure about the server though.
