First Gaming PC Build - Help

Hardware Hub Build a PC

Hey guys!

This is my first build, and was hoping to get a bit of help, I want to be able to record and edit Gameplay at 1080P, so I put this list together, but if you could find a better way to spend my money, then by all means let me know! I'm hoping on not having to spend more than $1050. I want to get the BitFenix Ronin case, so I'm not including it in the price. I am new, so anything that isn't the best, I'd understand!

You're build is really impressive. Just one thing though. Wait till October 13 for the prices on AMD's 7000th series to drop. In case I wasn't clear, AMD is releasing there 9000 series GPU's which means, the prices for the 7000 series will drop. So just wait until October and your GPU will drop it's price considerably. And just in case you were wondering, there best model, the 9970 is supposed to beat the GTX Titan and GTX 780

Looks fine to me, if you are looking for the FX 8xxx series. Intel's Haswell might be another nice alternative, since it is quite nice, but you do lose some actual core threads for having much more robust individual cores. If you were to get an i7, then it would be pretty inconsequential for that matter, and faster to boot. But it's really up to you. I like the AMD processor as well, mostly for the price. The graphics is also a good idea, because it's really a good deal.

Sweet! Thanks for the heads up.

Hope that's better.

I decided to keep looking in to it, and just found out that the NZXT H230 doesn't support water cooling, so I just changed it for the BitFenix Ronin.

Don't know if it'll change anything tough...

Hey guys. I have a A10-5800k and I am currently using the integrated gpu. It barely outperforms current gen consoles. I need to upgrade my psu anyway and my power is cheap in Canada. Should I crossfire a 6670 with the integrated gpu or go for a better non crossfirable card. I have no inclination to Nvidia or AMD. Any replies would be great. Thx
