as said, I need a GPU, RAM, CPU and M/B.

 

Requirements

-Gaming grade (nothing too extreme)

-Not too expensive

-M/B NEEDS to be mATX

-8GB RAM

-Has to run off a 430W PSU

 

 

Current choices

-M/B No idea

-CPU No idea

-GTX 750

-RAM 2*4GB stick of Kingston Fury or something of the like

 

Yeah, if you need any more info please just say!

 

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

need your budget $$$

 

I don't have one. I guess 400-500$?

The person I'm building this PC for just wants to play games such as BOUT Evolution, Tribes:Ascend and FlyFF.

New chipsets are too expensive and un needed, as is the CPU. I'm thinking a H81/H87 M/B with one of them fancy new Pentiums. Everything else seems good though.

 

I also forgot to specify that the budget is As low as you can go for decent performance.

Check the pricing. The difference between H87 and H97 is generally < $1. I picked the Asus board because it has 4 memory slots. If you elect to go with H81 or H87 and a Haswell Refresh cpu, make sure that the motherboard you plan to get will ship with a Haswell Refresh compatible BIOS installed - check with the retailer, (or is an Asus with USB BIOS Flashback).

I'd switch to an i3 that's OC able or a mid end AMD cpu and 750 to 750TI

Well were I am, (Canada eh!) we have site called Shopbot.ca which will find the lowest prices in Canada. And the main PC store in my town, memory express does price match. So I use shopbot to find a low price then get the price over ride! Works nicely, has saved me a lot of money so far. Right now I'm thinking I'll pick out an FX-6300/4300 just for the performance for what he plays and what he'll be using the PC for. Intel chipsets aren't really a great option because the SSD I gave him is incompatible with Z87, IDK about the rest.

You have an FX-4300, how is it?

Here's my current idea.

very good my last build (may it rest in peace note: it was dead before I joined LTT died of crammy PSU disorder) was an i5 3570k and I'd consider it very comparable.

mmmk.

I have a plan. Mind you 270x is really exspensive at memory express, like 270$!

I'd reccomend a 270 and OC it back up to 270x Marks.
