this is my pc that i want to build. i really want to cut down the price and I'm looking to get maybe 200+fps on rainbow 6 siege on ultra settings or 60fps+ on crysis 3 med settings... i really just want a good PC for about US$800-US$850 that can really perform. i am going to use cyberpowerpc's peripherals in the gear store and its going to cost me and extra US$40 including shipping. remember, i am constantly updating this to get a lower price.

Hi! Well the first step is give you a PSU that will not give you problems. Then moving other things around we can get you better performance.

CPU is i7 4770 clocked 100Mhz lower, GPU is between 1060 and 1070, and you get an SSD and a good PSU. Get your OS from Kinguin for $30

Just not sure but since a lot of mobos come with some kind of CPU-less BIOS flash, I don't see a problem (as long as OP comes and asks here about it)

Even if they did you better off getting Kaby Lake mobo for cheaper as only high end mobo have that luxury. Even the popular Z170-A doesn't have it

Rip to the only 2 blue z170 boards that seems high end but still lack that feature

I fully support this build save the CM devastator bundle. I've had more than one person regret buying it. Honestly a $20 gaming mouse and a $12 logitech K120 make for fine gaming peripherals.

 

Also the S12II PSUs are a bit better and start at $42 and you can even get the 620W for $49, rather than having to cash in a mail-in rebate.

btw, the zotac premium isn't actually in stock and jet's price on the mobo is actually $56.85. and you forgot the monitor

I know about S12II, but while GM is overpriced it has enough 8pins (where with S12ii it's a draw whether you'll get v2 with 2x8 or v1 with 1x8)

you said that i should get the seasonic s12ii. however, there are multiple versions that i can see and im not sure which to get. also, please remember that i its highly unlikely that i would be upgrading so keeping the price low is very important for me

if you're getting an rx 480 or gtx 1060 a 430w unit is enough. if you're getting the fury get the 620w unit or the coolermaster G550M.

inferior capacitators, missing protections, etc. the regular 80+ power supplies will be less power efficient compared to the 80+ bronze units.

look, don't cheap out on a power supply, it's the one component in your pc that can kill everything in it. use the psu tier list at the power supplies subforum, anything tier 3 will do.
