1080p Budget Gaming Rig (FIRST BUILD)

[Mkander99]

BUILD: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3rWs99

 

Budget: 700 USD

 

Anyone have suggestions to lower the price without losing too much performance and keeping within the guidelines below?

 

NEEDS: Wifi, Quadcore, 8 gb of ram (2x4), 4 gb VRAM, 2 case fans (I'd prefer to keep this case, its cheap, fits all my needs, and has room for an SSD when I get the money)

 

DOESNT NEED: SSD, bigger HDD, different case, disk drive, more ram, used parts (I want new parts and that is FINAL), reddit or ebay sold OS

I would get some 240GB SSD and later down the road some HDD, its amazing the performance improvement that a SSD can provide.

I will get a big HDD now because i just need storage for now, and then get a moderate ssd when i have the cash

I hope you mean to get a SSD later down the road; it's extremely hard to live with 240GB WITH the OS and WITH games installed.

For what im doing i dont want to deal with constant memory management with just a small ssd, i will get a nice tb hard drive and get the ssd later 

[Mkander99]

OK guys the way im going for storage is get a TB hard drive now, and when i have the money, get a nice big 500 gb or so SSD, i WILL NOT get an ssd first

Looks good. I don't think an SSD is necessary except if you want faster load times and crazy read and write speed.

I've been using my laptop which has a WD blue 7200rpm 500gb since 2009 as my work/very light gaming pc. Of course, the loadtimes are not instantaneous but it works

And that's the point. Don't fall under crowd pressure into buying something you don't need.
