Also, if this is a prebuilt, BUILD ONE.

[NeatSquidYT]

The PSU is CORSAIR 650W ?

Build a PC.

I'm thinking about getting this computer with these specs:

• Genuine Windows 8.1 64 Bit
• 2TB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s
• 240GB KINGSTON V300 SSD
• 4GB GEFORCE GTX 970
• 16GB HYPER-X FURY (2 x 8GB)
• ASUS® Z97-A
• OC Intel® Core™ i7-4790k

I will be using it for games on steam. Though one of my favourite games like Gta V will be played alot on it! Would I be able to max out the settings and get 60fps at 1080p?

 

Thanks

 

Ye it's good.

If your buying it prebuilt how much are you paying? If it's more than 1.4K, then don't get it. 

Someone tell me if im wrong but doesn't the Kingston V300 barely be faster than an HDD?

Edit: Can confirm V300 is the SSD that you shouldn't get. http://www.eteknix.com/potential-kingston-pny-scandal-switching-ssd-components-after-reviews/

It's easier for me to get a pre-build one. I'm not sure on all the pc specs etc

learn. You'll not regret it. Seriously, I used to be like you, but then I realised that knowing exactly how a PC works and its components etc. is a great help in troubleshooting.

You dont NEED  a 4790k lol.

The difference between i5 and i7 on the çpu bençhmarks i saw was like 71 fps versus 78 or something.( ON GTA V)

It is not worth 100 dollars.

When i had a V300 i got speeds of 450 read and 300 write

What do you mean? A 970 is absolutely perfect for 1080p GTA V.

It's  £1,222.00 

The same build can be made for 25% cheaper. This seems to be VERY over priced.

I can't run constant 60 Even with a 980 Overclocked to ~1600 MHz, and a 4790K with everything Maxed. I run like 55 with spikes to like 43.

because you had the older one

I'm thinking of

 

 

If I got two 970 gtx with an i5 (it comes out cheaper) but will it get bottle necked?

No. An i5 will not botttleneck ANY GPU'S in GAMING.

Could I confirm some things by you.

 

I was thinking of doing something like this if I was to pre-build:

 

Go with a I5 Cpu (Maybe over clocked one not sure if it is any different)

Get 2 gtx geforce 970 (This should max most games out right?)

Have a ssd for the os and a hdd for

Yeah, that would perform great! However, I always recommend custom building! It's really easy to do, and allot cheaper.

 

If you do end of buying a Prebuilt however, compare the price of the prebuilt to an equivalent system on uk.pcpartpicker.com

 

You'de need the socket and chipset compatible to your CPU.

Which means, any 4000 Series i5 would be on the H/Z97 platform, and on the LGA 1150 Socket.
