New Build Need Help With Hardware

[Busterman09]

I have about a 900 dollar budget up to 1000 and i was looking on building a computer. I feel like ive searched for years but i cant find what processor to get. The 1000 is for everything not just the processor. I have to try and keep the cost low because i need to purchase a monitor,new keyboard, and a new mouse. Im open to suggestions on anything. This will be a gaming pc and i have the game rust in mind while building this.

Is this for a future build, or you buying the parts right now?

I'd suggest keeping this video in mind before starting. It's a great message. It is older, so ignore older hardware:

So for now I would pick out things like cases, peripherals, things like that cause chances are those won't change much between now and when you buy. But with Ryzen 3-5 coming out, and your not yet ready to buy, its too soon to recommend which GPU or CPU to use, (Vega also coming).

PC Part Picker will be your best resource. That website lets you pick what parts you want for each aspect of the computer and will filter out things that incompatible with what you already have.

 

For you, I would start with an i5 7600 as the processor, and maybe something like the RX 480 as your GPU. These two things will be your most expensive parts.

You don't need to OC, and using non-OC parts gets you insane performance <$1050

Over budget, OP needs peripherals too.

Thats what i expected i just hope i don't mess something up when i do build it

Eh, an ASIO Prism and a 3050 based mouse or a Rival 100 pushes the budget a little higher, but still, without compromising heavily on performance OP isn't gonna see a drop in price

Also, other people can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that buying a GTX 1070 is a good idea if you only buy a 1080p monitor. To me that seems like too much performance at that resolution, the gains over something cheaper would probably not be noticeable.

It is overkill at 1080p, but some games (like bad console ports) require that horsepower to really go far (like Forza Horizon 3)

 

As an Ultrawide 1080p user, I absolutely love my 1070 just because it kicks ass in pretty much every game at that res.

oh wow that looks great especially because it has the keyboard and monitor. Although it mentions a possible incompatibility do you know if thats true?

oh yeah, see if you can contact the seller on newegg, ask them if the motherboard has the kabylake bios installed. the 7700 will need that bios to work. if you don't want to deal with that hassle than just get an i7 6700.

That is just a note that the motherboard may need a new BIOS to support that CPU.

Not sure if it WILL be the case, but it MAY.

If you are not comfortable flashing a new BIOS on a motherboard, I'd suggest going for a newer one that supports Kaby Lake natively. These would have "270" in the name after an "H" for non-overclocking or a "Z" for overclocking.

The "H" and "Z" goes for Z170/H110 as well.
