Please help, first build

[jack.beale111]

Hi

I recently decided to build my first gaming pc, i have a list of ckmponents but am woried that they might not be compatible or may not be the best ones i can get, i have a budget of 500 pounds/dollars and would really like some help.

This is what i have so far:

Motherboard: asus 1150 z97-c, atx

Proccesor: amd fx6300

Ram: crucial 8gb sports ballistix

Power supply: cmx 600w (corsair)

Graphics card: evga nvidia gtx750 ti

Hard drive: weston digital 1tb 3.5 inch drive (blue)

Could anyone tell me if i need to upgrade anything (minimum 1080p+ gaming) or if i can cheap out anywere and get a lower end version (or if anything wont work/missing)

Thanks alot

Jack

These:

Motherboard: asus 1150 z97-c, atx
Proccesor: amd fx6300

That mobo is for a intel cpu and you got a amd cpu.

That motherboard is for Intel, change that and everything's good.

That motherboard processor combo won't work.

That's an intel socket motherboard and an AMD processor.

You'll have to change one or the other.

Apart from that looks fine

What do you think i should change it to, got to look good, windowed case

[rhyseyness]

What do you think i shoukd change it to

Are you overclocking?

[arronleeds]

Il do a build for you mate and Send you the part list, I may be able to squeeze a little more out of it. Have you already got a case ?

Never mind seen that you need a case.

[jack.beale111]

Yeah , what do you mean fo a build for me

[jack.beale111]

And i may overclock

[arronleeds]

Yeah , what do you mean fo a build for me

Il go on part picker and throw one together for you for £500.

No worries fella, be better I do it since I'm from the uk.

[jack.beale111]

All it needs to do is fit in a corsair spec 01 case and be a competent gaming rig, (steam at 1080p onwards)

[jack.beale111]

Ghats a good idea, tried to get advice from another forum but everyone got confusdd cos i wasnt using dollars!

I'd use these:

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-491-GI

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-540-IN

 

They'll work together, you'll be able to overclock and it'll perform better than the FX6300...

Not sure if they'll fit in your budget though.

If not, find an i3 1150 socket to fit your budget.

That motherboard will work with either processor (i3 or i5)
