$1430 Gaming Build

[Mullen_S]

1. Budget & Location

My budget is $1430 and my location is america

 

2. Aim

The aim of this build is to run all the latest AAA games at 60 fps 1080p on ultra and to do some music production on FL studio. I would also like this build to last a long time with out need for many upgrades, I may upgrade to 1440p later but that is only a small possibility.

 

3. Monitors

I plan on running 1 monitor at 1080p but maybe upgrading to either a triple monitor 1080p setup or a 1440p monitor for gaming and 1080p as a secondary monitor

 

4. Peripherals

I don't need any peripherals included in the budget other than if there is extra money and you could fit a Logitech G502 in the budget and I need a copy of windows. If you could recommend any peripherals for a reasonable price that would be welcome to.

 

5. Why are you upgrading?

I'm upgrading because I currently do everything on a mac from 2010 and it can barely run CS:GO at 60fps medium settings 1080p so I have to run at 4:3 stretched.

 

This is what I came up with,  https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Mullen/saved/#view=cmdRsY  What do you guys think, what should I change? Thx

If you could put together a build for me that would be great and I would prefer to have a be quiet Silent Base 600 as the case but it's not nessasary, Thx

Sure, wait a moment whilst I try and make one.

If you need a more powerful GPU simply downgrade the CPU to a skylake processor, but you mentioned music production, and I don't know how demanding that is, so I just assumed you'd need a good CPU.

I would go for a newer cpu, but the parts are ok. If you get a cheaper psu (less watts (550 or something)), you can probably squeeze a skylake cpu in there and then it will be great.

You should probably get a bigger ssd though.

Aren't the motherboard, psu and case overpriced ?

I think you could possibly get a fury in there if those were cheaper.
