Cheap Gpu help.

[George294]

Hello, I was wondering what god I could get for around $100 that could game, if that isn’t possible than something around $200. I also haven’t a clue as to what vr headset I should get, I’m looking for cheap as possible but anything helps. Thanks. Posted with this comment is a list of what I’ll be trying to build.

What's your overall budget?

That CPU is terrible for the price.

[Kikawa_21]

 This build ( https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ ) is way better for price/performance, and it costs more or less the same as your build with a gpu.

 

Still, you cannot use VR, since you would have to spend more.

 

You can also upgrade with a GPU in the future, but for budget gaming, this APU is great, especially because you can also overclock, which gives you basically free performance.

DO NOT BUY SKYLAKE X

 

that mobo also isnt compatible.

 

Get an 8400 with B360 or 1600/2600x with B350/450

 

For 200$ you will have tk buy used to get decent performance. An R9 290x should offer you good performance for less than 200$ (130$)

 

If you want to buy new you should stretch to 250$ to get an Rx 580 8GB or GTX 1060 6GB. Whichever is cheapest

The 2700x is Not and APU part 

 

That build also isnt that great value

 

nvm, that there is the wrong link. 

 

What is your budget for your build?

 

What are you planning to do with the PC? (Gaming, streaming, editing, etc)

 

What monitor do you have or are planning to get?

It's the Ryzen 5 2400g, not the 2700x...which is an APU, and for the price is great, since you don't have to spend 250 bucks for a decent GPU, it keeps the price very low. And if you really want to upgrade, you can do so with a 1600 6gb/580 without bottlenecking.

You sent the wrong link....... Thats why i mentioned the 2700x. Im currently also working on a productivity build

A few suggestions from me.

• If your budget for gpu is around $200 that psu is overkill. If there's cheaper options with watts around 500w you should consider it.
• That processor is not good price/performance wise just use a regular i5.
• You need ssd.
• Try getting at least a gtx 1050ti. Preferably a gtx 1060.

A usez R9 290x or GTX 1050ti will work fine in VR. Though for more demanding VR games i recommend GTX 1060 6GB or RX 580 8GB or Higher

You are supposed to send the generated link and not the one in the address line

 

The link should look like this: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/B9k229

 

Edit: on his side its just a blank pcpartpicker list

PSU is rubbish, mobo and CPU are outdated and incompatible, you can find cheaper ram as a kit or a single stick. what's your budget for the rig?

[George294]

I was trying around $700 - $800. (The cheaper the better) to start vr gaming.

[George294]

What’s better for vr and price, ryzen or intel?

[George294]

Would this vr game and is there anything I could do better.
