Hey so I'm building a pc soon and I need some help with part selections. Its more complicated than a standard build because its based on my uncles old pc. I'll be using his case, ram, motherboard, optical drive, and case fans.
His parts (cannot be changed):
*Gigabyte GA-990FXA ATX AMD Motherboard
*Crucial ballistic sport 8GB DDR3-1333 (1 stick)
*old optical drive (won't use)
*old ATX case
*2-4 case fans installed
I plan to add a CPU, CPU cooler, storage, power supply, and OS. I need to know if this is the best upgrade I can do for about $850. I want to stick to NVidia graphics cards for NVidia shield down the road. I play a lot of shooters like battlefield and I need to know if this is a good machine to play them on.
upgrade parts:
*AMD FX 6350
*Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
*Kingston SSDNow V200 series 64GB
*Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB
*MSI GTX 770 4GB TF
*CoolMax 600W 80 PLUS Bronze
*Windows 8
I'm wondering about doing an FX 8350 instead of the FX 6350. I'm also considering an H55 water cooler but I don't know if that's to advanced for a starter build. Any suggestions are much appreciated, Thanks :)
