What's your budget?

[Manny Calavera]

Bad reviews? Like what?

Well i guess... then you can buy gtx 660. In fact with 700$ easy gtx 760.

There is Nothing that truly is Bad about AMD, Where have you heard that?
They had a terrible price when the crypto-mining started to become big But not anymore.



How much money are you willing to spend?
900 bucks wont give you 60fps+ at Ultra graphics in new AAA games.


I would recommend somthing like this, if you want to be at 60fps+ at Ultra Graphics.

AMD rig.

This will max out most MMO's and MOBAS,

It is AMD based, Someone else might have a equal rig But Intel.

this is good but get ultrastar from hitachi for 43$
they have similar failure rate ( even lower ) than WD blues in statistics, so its decent.
