Help building first PC

blazefox

Hey FJ, I'm gonna build my first PC soon, I don't want a super system, just something to run Battlefield, War thunder, and a few games on nice settings, I already have a mouse and monitor. I'm looking to spend between $500 - $1,000. What parts should I replace on the list or add, thanks.

Well, for one that CPU doesn't work with that motherboard.
And that GPU ain't powerful enough to drive those games at 1920*1080 60FPS, will give you a list in a min.

There you go.
Won't make grand promises of the SSHD and case though.
They're cheap options and with such comes compromises.

Also, you could opt for a r9 390 instead of a Strix 970, similar performance.
+ WAY more VRAM.
- Runs hotter and louder.
- Probably way more coil whine, the Strix are known to handle that well.
- More power consumtion.

any suggestions on a case?

I love the Fractal Design R5, almost a perfect case.
Though that of course comes at a price point.

I'm not really wanting to spend more then $50 on a case, maybe a little more if need be

As said, there are compromises but it won't affect the raw performance where it's needed.

But something that's important to me is how happy I am about the build, and a whole lot of that depends on the case.
Like it doesn't make much sense to spend 100 USD on fans, but they will run smoothly and quietly for basically forever.
But that's just me.

I don't really care for the case look, It's gonna be under my desk when I move, and I've heard good things about hybrid hard drives, but that could be people that have no idea what they're talking about.

#8 to #5 - sinery (08/31/2015) [-]

Thing is that Seagate are infamous for having some really bad HDD models and they don't make SSDs.

But yeah, the hybrid concept is great the budget.
Much faster than a HDD for OS while having the same capacity.

However they're new and have yet to prove themselves.

You're in luck, kiddo. I happen to have a few friends that're real good with tech, they showed me a place where there are all sorts of tech geniuses posting how to make their own terminals. You can even change the min and max of the price you want to spend!
