So I saw scrapyard wars and I was like, I can do better than them.

 

So I searched the internet for like 1 month and found a beast PC for 350 euro(I made it so my budget was 400).

 

I received it today and I just call it a console Killer because I could not any other name for it.

 

The specs are listed as followed.

 

Processor: i7 3770k 3.5-3.9GHZ (OC'ed to 4.5GHz)
Watercooler CPU: Antec Kühler H2O 620
RAM DDR3: Corsair Vengeance LP 4x4GB (16GB) 1600 cl9
Motherbord: Asus P8Z68-V
PSU: Antec CP-1000 EC
Case: Antec Performance One P193 V3
SSD: OCZ Vertex 3 MI 120GB
HDD: Seagate Constellation ES 1TB

OS: Windows 10 Pro 64Bit

 

I dont know about this but I find this incredible cheap for a I7.

the rest of my money I would search a GPU for like 50 to finish up my budget.

 

Did you guys found something alike or did something like scrapyard wars

Gonna add a picture tomorrow of the computer.

Your console killer seems to be lacking a gpu.

I know and I already bought one , not Really good one but will recieve it tomorrow and then I got for a 400 euro budget a nice gaming rig( in my opinion.)

Its a HD5670 or something close to that.

 

EDIT

yeah that still doesn't beat a console, unless you mean like xbox 360 xD or the will :P 

Still, I find this a pretty good find for 400 euro.

The only thing I still have to upgrade is my GPU.

I mostly play CSGO and this does his job for it.

Nice Job! Just upgrade that GPU and you've got one beast of a machine.

Dunno how the parts are priced in Canada, but you say so :).

Oooh. They're freaking expensive.

I got "scammed" (technically not a scam) into buying a GT740 for $110 CAD.

EDIT: ~74.34 Euros

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

With just a Radeon 6850 this machine is less capable of gaming than any of the previous scrapyard wars builds to date.  You have a stronger CPU but that's not going to amount to much being paired with a 6850.

I know that, But there aren't really many GPU's you can buy at the moment (used).

I got the 6850 for like 10-20 eur and might get a better GPU when I sell my old hardware (hopefully I get 100 eur of that PC).
