Planning a New Build

[loganryan99]

My laptop is starting to show its age so I am starting to plan a new build.

 

Budget: ~$500 USD 

Use: Web browsing, web development, programming, 3D modeling, some games here and there

Monitors: I just plan on using this with one monitor

OS: Already have an copy of Windows 7 (not included in budget)

 

I'm a COMPLETE noob at this, so this probably has a ton of problems, but here is my current parts list: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/catman232/saved/3eEb If anyone has any resources or suggestions that'd be really appreciated!

go with an AMD card that fits your dudget, NVIDIA sucks at lower end.....

Maybe get this? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121801

I am not too sure how it will perform though against that GTX 650

G-Sync is something I am going to want in the future so AMD isn't really an option, but thanks for the suggestion

Thanks, I think I'll go with the Corsair one. Again I am a noob so I didn't really know to look for efficiency

G-sync doesn't support the 650. You need at least a 650 Ti BOOST for that.
