Well, I'm so proud, my brother has begun his ascension to the gloriouspcgamingmasterrace. I've obviously looked over it myself being the absolute tech master that I am but I'd want some thoughts/improvements from the forum just in case I've messed up a tonne. He plays games like LoL and Runescape alot however tells me that he wants to play more demanding games like AW and Shadows of Mordor once he has ascended. 

The build is as follows :3

 

CPU: AMD 6300

Motherboard: Asus M5A97-R2 970

RAM: G-Skill Sniper 2x4gb kit (1600mhz) (bought)

HDD: WD Blue 1tb

GPU: R9 280x Windforce

Case: Thermaltake VP300A1W2N (bought)

PSU: Coolermaster Thunder 600watt (bought)

DVD Drive, for those games that you can't download on steam. (50gb ones and stuff)

 

I'll be sure to post some pics of the finished build when it's done, which will be probably in around 4 days.

 

Thanks

What is your budget? Based on just the parts alone, this is pretty good. 8/8.

It will be more than enough for LoL and runescape, it should handle AW pretty well too. SoM I would think it would be able to run high graphics pretty well, maybe not ultra though. But yeah the build looks good.

Don't worry, I will destroy him if he only plays runescape on it.....
