New PC Build

[Zoniksku]

Hi everyone, 

So this is probably a very common question but i thought id ask it specifically for myself. 

 

Im building a new budget pc for study and for a few games. What i need to know is what graphics card i should by ? 

The only games i play are WoW, Dota 2, Hearthstone and CS:Go. 

None of these games really require graphics power and i dont intened on changing anytime soon, its been the same for years. I even still play cod4mw1 on the off chance. 

 

Suggestions ? 

 

Thanks =]

I recommend the I5 4460 and DDR3 over the I3, simply better performance over new hardware.

That's pretty much the build i put together, but im thinking the 950 is even too much for what i run. Plus im in australia so the GTX 950 is $300

$800-900 including 24"monitor IPS LED. moust keyboard and a wifi card from www.umart.com.au 

 

The postage costs of all the items from partpicker ends up costing more than the actual savings.
