Hello everyone! I have been wanting to build a gaming PC for a while, and after brother brother building his own (He built the $600 gaming rig with a Bit Fenix case, Gigabyte HD7850 graphics card, etc.) I don't have the same budget, around $400 at the absolute most, but I would like to stay under so that I can afford a nce gaming keyboard and mouse in the near-ish future.
So anyways, I am looking at a couple different options, and had some questions; the most recent $350 PC that Logan put together seems to be pretty solid, but I was wondering if the case/ power supply could be switched out for this, which would save quite a bit of money http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811148047 I am skeptical, however because I realize the importance of a good power supply. NAy alternatives/feedback about this option are apprecitated. I was also wondering if the A10- 5800K is the best CPU option for this price range; I found an intel G620 for only $77 and I wonder how much of a difference there is in performance.
Just to clarify, I don't plan on doing any sort of hard-core gaming with this thing, and I will almost certainly upgrade this machine in the future, but for now, when I'll be playing mostly Half Life 1 and 2, Portal 1 and 2, the walking dead, and whatever other amazing deals steam has with their next sale will it suffice? Thank you to everyone, and please, no fanboys...
