what should i do

[GreezyJeezy]

sp im saving up for a computer, i have $600 in my computer budget right now every week im putting $200 towards it, i really want it so i first planned to get a $800 build, that would mean i could order parts next monday, or should i save more, and if i should save more how much should i save for it. 

 

also if you say like save to $1000 or whatever could you post a build for that price too just so i can see what i could get 

 

GAMING fam, its for gaming 

 

1080p 60fps ultra on AAA games. a bit of streaming but an i5 should be fine for that.

 

color clear green/black i like LED's  i want the case to be teh s340 (black)

 

only need computer parts, and fans.

Why not just save up for a $300000 one?

 

At some point you have to choose to stop...

And you should probably also read the instructions for posting in this subforum:

what everyone assumes on here, gaming, the other stuff does not matter becase if it can game 1080p 60fps on ultra it can do anything id do with it. (code)

There are two things you need to primarily consider when building a computer without a finite budget.

 

1. What are you going to be using this computer for?

2. If you are going to be gaming, What resolution and FPS do you intend to play at? That alone can determine wether you're fine with a 700 dollar computer or a 1700 dollar computer.

 

Lastly, if you want us to suggest a build, what do you all need accounted for in your budget? Do you need a monitor, keyboard, mouse, operating system, speakers, etc. Or do you just need the computer itself. Also, when building a custom computer you have the leeway to determine any aesthetic choices you want. So if you like windowed side panels, or think black and green is sexy af, then let us know.

I like you. One last question, do you care at all for unlocked CPU's? If you want to overclock, then I support that. But if all you're looking for is the best bang for your buck, then CPU overclocking is typically not the way to go in the less expensive systems.

i know i can get an i5 k cpu and z motherboard in a $800 budget so that really shouldn't be a problem,but yes id like to OC so id make want a closed loop water cpu cooler too my budget is $800 min but dont go crazy i dont want to save up for the next 10 months to get it  remember $200 a week.

[TheKingKobra]

whats your experience with building computers, if your getting 200 a week, wait a month and buy parts slowly through the month, you don't have to buy it all at once, i will make a build on pcpartpicker, give me a minute.

[Matias_Chambers]

You want a black and green color scheme am I right?

If you can save money that quickly, I would recommend getting a computer in the 1000-1200 dollar area at least. the difference between that and a 800 dollar computer is MASSIVE.

here's a $1500 build

[Matias_Chambers]

I would save up up like 1500$. I'm making a build. 

[Simon771]

For 1080p gaming, you need just the basic i5 6600k CPU + GTX 1060 GPU

Sure you can get RX 480 instead, but I think GTX 1060 will be better for streaming also.

 

Then just get SSD for windows, HDD for fap material.

 

Other stuffs ... just get what looks nice  

[Zyndo]

For a black and green colour scheme that is going to last you many years at 1080p, and can handle better if you ever wanted to take that step, This would probably be your best bet http://pcpartpicker.com/list/HFV7TH

 

If you cannot commit that much money to a computer system even though you have 200 per week to dedicate to it, then this could be another good alternative http://pcpartpicker.com/list/gkNq3F

 

Its your money, and you can do whatever you want to with it. But if you have that sort of income, I would suggest building the best computer you can build. A good, massively overkill computer can last for many many years. If you buy quality components now, then all you need to do going forward is basically buy a GPU or upgrade RAM when you think what you have is no longer quite cutting it. It also allows you to step up from 1080p anytime you want to or can. OR you can get a 1080p monitor with really high refresh rates. A build like this would probably be the best for someone of your financial capability. Its what I would do If i had that kind of money, at least =) http://pcpartpicker.com/list/RKwhgL

 

Realistically though, you don't need more than the $1000 dollar build if you're just doing 1080p gaming at 60 fps. the other 2 builds are just for additional headroom or futureproofing if you wanted it.

i like that $1300 build 

[Zyndo]

then by all means go for it. the X61 cooler is pretty much designed for the S340, so I used that. You could also use the Corsair H110i GTX or H115i if you wanted. They both come with RGB LED's that you can match to the same green as the razer case if you want. Same with the Gigabyte G1 Gaming 1070 there. It also has RGB letting on the side of it so you can really get that green vibe going if you so desired.

I strongly recommend the Enthoo pro > the S340. Because:

-Better airflow. the S340 have block the front panel. making it hard to reach the airflow, meanwhile the enthoo pro have the front plane not blocked

- More space. for aircoolers solutions and any gpu card will fit here

-Support any motherboard. This case is futureproof.

- Cpu: the I5 6500k is enough for you. Great for gaming

-Cooler: The 110i GTX give you better temps. for that sweet less than ~60°C at under load.

- MB: the Asus Z170-A have everything you need for this beast skylake build. + it support M.2 for ultra fast speed transfers.

- Memory: The Corsair LPX 16GB 3000MHz is enough for overclocking and the right amount of memory that any system would use.

-Video card: The EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB FTW edition is the best card of the 1070 series and it will give you almost 144 FPS at most games will all at ultra settings

-PSU: This EVGA SuperNOVA P2 650W is 80+ platinum meaning that is very efficient and can make you pay less in your electric bills. and is the safest PSU i ever seen. the 650W is enough for this.

And the Storage: The 240GB SSD from PNY will give you fast boot times and enough space for you OS and some favorate programs you use everyday, and the 2TB hybrid is sufficient space for storing everything than a averange PC user would use.

 

Bonus:

If you want a good keyboard, monitor and mouse for gaming:

- The K70 Rapidfire mechanical keyboard will give you advantage at any game because it 1.2mm of activation point instead of the traditional 2.0mm. 

- The G502 its the best mouse i ever use with the best sensor on the market for deadly accurate aiming in FFS games. also it got 11 programable macro keys for everyday use.

- The  AOC G2460PG 24.0" 144Hz Monitor is the best choice for gaming. you will love using any game at 144Hz, 

 

If you want get better a 1600$ build is a very good PC for gaming. then go with this. http://pcpartpicker.com/list/kJcq3F if you notice i only change the 1070 for the 1080 and the SSD to the 950 PRO. and yes is a huge difference because the Boot time in this ssd IS less than 5 seconds and it can transfers at 2 GIGABYTES PER SECOND. with is hella fast. and the 1080 FTW edition can give you 144+ FPS in any game at ULTRA SETTINGS.
