Third time's a charm

[Silver Knight]

Okay, so after debating it a little, i think i finally decided what i need my PC to be for!

 

I want a PC that can play RPG games on high setting without any stutters (FPS doesn't matter as much, but higher the better). I don't really play some demanding online games (like BF 4), or a lot of shooters at all (maybe 2-3 shooter games).

 

This PC will be used mainly for games, and web browsing!

 

I'll be using a single monitor (probably either 900p or 1080p).

 

All i want form this PC is:

- To have 280x

- To have a 1Tb HDD (SSD isn't really needed, because if i really need it, i can buy it later when i have more money).

- To have some re-usable parts (like PSU, Case, HDD), for the next build i'll be building after this one (That's why i want 600w+ PSU, so i can OC, upgrade and re-use it )

- For it to last for about 2~ years on high-mid gaming for games such as (Divinity, Assassins Creed, Dragon Age, Castlevania, Prototype... and other similar RPG's! I also play on playing emulated games (PS3/PS2 (i own it, but i think that the exp. is better than on a PC emulator)/NDS/PSP/GBA...))

- As for case, i like Raidmax Scorpio V, but nothing is set in stone, so i can change my mind very easily

 

Location

Serbia

 

Budget

80,000 RSD

 

Peripherals/monitor

Not needed. I have both Keyboard&mouse, and a crappy monitor which i'll be changing in due time

 

OS

Not needed, also have it

 

Shop i'll be buying from: http://www.emmi.rs/naslovna_stranica.1.html

 

Reason why i'm upgrading

My current laptop keeps over-heating on games like Divinity 2: Dragon Knight Saga, and other newer games...)

 

I'll be buying this in August, and the chances of my budget going up are almost non-existent..

 

 

Also, i noticed this, and it's been bothering me, but when i play Divinity 2 on this laptop, it's so hot that i start sweating, so i also want a cool machine

 

P.S. I prefer Seagate, since WD failed me a few times

If you don't care about FPS (In which case you should actually go to consoles, because they certainly don't) and might not even play at 1080p, a 280x is probably not even worth it. Stutters = a low FPS by the way.

One thing i'll never do, is go to consoles

 

As for playing on 1080p, i'll probably do that since i have a 1080p AOC monitor, but i only need to bring it here (it's on the country side where i used it for marathon-ing movies and TV series-es )

if you're 100% sure you're going to game at 1080p and want to play at good settings with 50-60+ FPS, a 280x could very well be worth it. I don't have too much time irght now, so I don't know what your amount of mine is in euro's/USD, but if your budget allows it, get yourself a nice 4th gen i5, otherwise get an fx 6300 (good for budget/midrange builds), 6-8GB of RAM and you're all set.

I'm not 100% sure that i'll be gaming on 1080p off the bat. If not right away, then after a few months, but i'll surely game on 1080p

 

And now, my budget doesn't really allow me for an i5 4th gen... Even thought i'd like to have on

 

This is what i currently plan on getting (of course if AMD doesn't reveal some awesome CPU/GPU in the meantime that's just in my price range ).

 

CPU: FX - 8320

CPU Cooler: CM 212 EVO

Mobo: Asus m5a97 r.2.0

RAM: 8Gb (2x4Gb) DDR3 Kingston HyperX 

Case: Raidmax Scorpio V

PSU: I'm thinking of 600w~ because i'll be OC'ing and i'll be re-using it next time when i'm building 

HDD: 1Tb Seagate Barracuda 

SSD: None at the moment 

GPU: Powercolor 280x TurboDuo 3Gb

 

And even this is a little over my budget, but i can pay for that with my savings
