Gaming Hardware - PC/Console/Accessories Configuration

[archie]

Local price is a bit less (by 150-200). This is the price from Flipkart

AMD 3.5 AM3+ FX 6-Core Black Edition FX-6300 = 7555
Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P Motherboard = 5950
2x4GB G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 1600Mhz = 6000

There is no on-board GPU in this MoBo or instruction set in the CPU. So make sure you use a dedicated GPU. A Radeon R7 260 with 2GB memory should fit in nicely (8k-14k range).

Am not planning to OC right away. If you do, then make sure you have an after-market cooler to replace the stock CPU heatsink. I would suggest 'Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO'.

Trust me Spend More on ram Get 2133 Mhz with lower CAS latncy .. gets better performance on AMD

or Try make the lowest response time in nanoseconds Check table for more info

Too late buddy! My system is up and running since the last 2 months.

Anyway, I have reduced latency from UEFI. There are some compatibility issues with 2133 Mhz and didn't want to take any chances.

My bro is rocking GTA4 at 1080 and anything more is not really required.

Ah thats OK.. 2133 ram is binned version you can get lower cas at lesser frequency endng with lowe ns and better performance try making changes

hey guys i will be building a gaming cpu.....
need advice on that
budget is 50K
processor--- INTEL CORE I5 SKYLAKE 6400
GPU---- MSI GTX 960 TI 2GB GDDR5 OC
RAM---8GB DDR4 2133MHZ
MOTHERBOARD----GIGABYTE GA-H110-S2 DDR4
PSU---CORSAIR VS550 550 WATT PSU
HAVE TO BUY A CABINET FOR NO MORE THAN 2500
AND A GOOD HDD
THANKS GUYS
SUGGEST ME IF YOU HAVE BETTER IDEAS

WD HDDs (Western Digital) are better than that of the Seagate's. So buy at least 1 TB HDD costing around ₹ 4000/- or 2 TB if it suits your budget.

budget is already over stretched+ i have a 500gb sata hdd
okay wat about a cpu cabinet

No no, don't make mistake , 500gb SATA is about ₹ 3400/- and with only paying 400 to 600 you are getting double the capacity.

If you ask any computer assembler to give a quotation then most probably he won't tell you or quote about 1TB rates, since they have to sell their jammed stock of 500gb HDDs.

yeah thanks
btw what do you think about the other components like processor,ram,gpu,psu,and motherboard

Consider AMD Processor, since they are half the price and 19-20 in the performance, is you opt a good CPU cooler than probably AMD is most cost effective. I think @tarunraju may help you better.

thanks
but amd processors have overheating problem+intel i5 is the latest gen processor more performance per core

That's why I asked for a good CPU cooler, anyways I was saying that costwise. If you like Intel then go for it.

There is no 960 Ti AFAIK. There is only GTX 960 and that honestly isn't very good compared to R9 380 or 380x. Try to get a 1060 or RX 480. I recently upgraded to a 1060 from 960 and the difference is quite huge.

prices here in india are also quite huge when compared to usa

 

[cannonfodder]

Don't go for AMD processor; stick to Intel Processor since AMD seems to be far behind in performance.

Put more money on GPU rather than CPU if primary concern is gaming.

Then try to save up a bit more. GTX 960 at its retail price is a waste of money. Try AMD side such as R9 380, 380x and you can wait for RX 470 while will be releasing in two weeks.

 

[aditya10r]

and please advice me a good cabinet

how about this r9 380

That's a good card. But as I said, if you can wait for RX 470 release. It should provide much better performance at similar price.

okay.....+1 more thing is processor okay,and do i need a more powerful psu

550W is going to be more than enough for your build.
