Need suggestions on decent 600$ budget PC

[zeromahn]

I'm in the middle of trying to build myself a budget PC, I'm here to get suggestion and too see what you guys would build with 600 buckaroos. I will take everything in consideration and hek, if your build is good i might just go with that! thanks for the help :D

I would suggest something along these lines:

I sacrificed a bit of CPU power in favor of Video Card performance, since I am assuming you will be gaming on it for the next 2-3-4? years. A 660Ti should be more than enough to run games at Medium setting at 1080p.

It should not be bottlenecking it, and seeing future games will be better optimized for multi-core CPUs, this means that they will be better optimized for this CPU.

 

The PSU should be enough at 480W, seeing your CPU and Video card will be drawing around 350W at max load.

I would never sacrofice CPU power for a 660ti card which is a terrible value at this budget, I'd go with AMD and look in their 7000 series of cards (7750, 7850, 7770, 7870 are great value/performance cards in your price range)

 

Or you could go with a good integraded GPU cpu such as the A10-6800k and Haswell. In the future you can always add a GPU into your rig.

It would be good to get something along the lines of a a10 5800k and a 6670 as they will crossfire as someone else said dont sacrifice cpu power for gpu and btw get an after market cooler as stock on the a10 is bad hope i helped :D

This breaks the budget a bit: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/19bVx

Seems good, but that CPU isn't that good for the money, get a 965 BE, it's even 15$ off on newegg

I could, but wouldn't that mean I would have to bump up my pcu?

Neither build will get over 470W, the extra should also be sufficient to get a evo and overclock at some point if you wish.

Oh!alright I'll definitely give it some thought thanks!

Check out my most recent build. I get great performance and it's jammed packed with SSD sweetness. All for $603 USD!
