So before I knew about hardware, a bought a gaming pc. ($500).
then I learned about Overclocking.
Now My gt 610 does 37 fps on Warframe on low...
My CPU is at 4.3ghz.
Albeit I have to turn the resolution down to 1280 x 720 From 1280 x 1024

Specs:
Some random no name brand PSU (500w)
Amd 4300 processor
Gt 610 1 gb
8gb RAM

Just.. how?

For my first pc aswell as overclock
is this good?
 Valley Benchmark score (basic)
768

The CPU looks solid. Rest of the system looks fine.

 

But graphics for $500... ehhhh..... It's not bad, but if you have the money, throw that GT610 out the window and get a better card, Especially if you're gaming.

My friend had a 750Ti, said it was fantastic for the price. See if you can find one for less than $130 (assuming you're in the US)

If you aren't worrred about power consumption or nVidia features I think a 270(x) is more suited.

Impressive system. One thing I would change however is that 4770k to a 4790k. On amazon they cost the same :)

Please don't buy dominator ram... it's the stupidest thing ever

 

Literally 16 GB of any decent ram would cost as much as 8 GB of dominator
