Hello,

 

I want to build to Pc for me and a Friend.

They should both run AC Unity.

So my question is if they can.

 

 

They will both use this graphic card:

On has a Price range till 1500$/€

I am not sure if the power supplie is good.

and if I should use this Motherboard:
http://de.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-z97u3plus

 

 

The other one has a Price range till 800$/€

a Power supplie is used from a previous Build.

Maybe it will get a Intel CPU.

Everything looks good, but get an i5 because an i7 isn't worth it for gaming. Also, get the Z97 board.

What psu do you already have?

There's no point getting an i7 just for gaming when the i5 performs similarly while being significantly cheaper. No need for such an expensive cpu cooler just for gaming as well.

The mobo is a personal preference, choose one based on the features you will use the most...

The GPU is fine ^^

rig: i7 4770k @4.1Ghz (delidded), Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600Mhz, ROG Maximus VI Hero, Noctua NH-D14, EVGA GTX980SC, Samsung 850 EVO 500GB, Corsair SF600, self-built wooden Case, CoolerMaster QuickFire TK, Logitech G502, Blue Yeti, BenQ GW2760HS

800$ is not balanced.

 

What PSU he got? If psu blows/screws up -> RIP hardware

Also, you could afford FX 8320 with that build if you really want to have gtx 970. I really would not advise any lower cpu. If all threads are used perfectly its like ivy bridge i5 at stock.

 

Then get better mobo ud3p from gigabyte 970 chipset with 8+2 power phase.

I only know that it is from 2010 and a Xilence

Are you both using the same graphics cards because they're bought already?

No we haven't bought them.

What would be the cheapest GPU that would run AC U?

His Budget has shrink a little. Is it a good idear to wait for the 960?

Probably a 285/280x to just play it smoothly (considering the game). 

Waiting for the 960 release if not just for the following price drops is probably a good idea.
