Help Me Build A Gaming Desktop

Can someone help me build a gaming desktop pc?

i5 3450 CPU - http://goo.gl/7Re5i $175
Gigabyte GA-B75-D3H - http://goo.gl/kGM6x $75
Thermaltake V4 Black edition - http://goo.gl/4QcRM $45
CX430 - http://goo.gl/nJu2L $40
Gigabyte 7850 - http://goo.gl/Xkq5u $175
1TB WD Blue - http://goo.gl/P1Ajd $80
DVD Drive (If you dont have one) - http://goo.gl/WZ5WB $18

That would add up to about $608 (Only 590 if you move your old DVD Drive over). However, if you were planning to get another card and crossfire (ie. dual cards), I would recommend the cx600 instead of the cx430 @ $75 (http://goo.gl/v1Xz2).

The Windows 7 isos (which can be burnt to disc) are available here: http://goo.gl/jlX2a.

If you are really short on cash, the i3-3220 is still decent for gaming, but is not very good at multi-tasking, and is only $130 as opposed to $175 (http://goo.gl/WZ5WB), which will take the total cost down to $573 (or $555 if you use your old DVD drive)

This computer would easily handle DayZ and GTA V. Good luck and merry christmas :)

How to build a gaming pc?

First Figure out if you want AMD or Intel Based Computer. Note AMD is far cheaper and does the job just as good or better than Intel. Intel is very pricey.
second Choose your motherboard if amd for example and processor
Go with an Nvidia video card that does direct x 12 or 12.1
Go with Corsair 750 .. pick any dvd drive any case and get a monitor if you dont have one that has 300 cd or better and refresh rate of 3ms no higher than 5ms
I sugest you get an an 8 core processor... and get two sticks of dual channel 4gb memory sticks G skill memory is good. YOu can find everything and reviews on Newegg.com that is the go to place for building a gaming system.. one last thing processor amd processors have been sized as am3plus for years now the new size is am4... so if you get an am4 processor make sure you get an am4 motherboard.. same is if you get an am3plus make sure you get an am3plus motherboard.. if you get the am3plus sized processor i recommend the amd 8350.. you can save money buy doing that.. copy and paste this information and always have it. people will agree with everything that I say.. this is the formula

Is it a good time now to build a gaming PC?

Due to fluctuating prices of individual components, one could argue that it’s never a good time to build a PC. For the most part, component prices aren’t bad. The exception to this is the GPU market. Due to the cryptocurrency mining mess, GPU prices are a lot higher than what they should be. Prices are slowly returning to normal which would lead me to the conclusion that one should build now because once nVidia’s next generation stuff comes out, prices for that will likely skyrocket and won’t be worth the purchase.Besides, one doesn’t need the bleeding edge of video cards to have a good experience. I still run a GeForce Titan which is a 7th gen GPU and I can still play most games on max settings at 1080p with no major frame rate issues. Bearing in mind that a GTX 1080 (10th gen) is about 130+% faster than my Titan, you could do 1440p gaming at max settings with no major frame rate issues.I usually budget about $2500 for a gaming rig. This gets me pretty close to top end and is usually the biggest bang for the buck. Spending more than this leads to diminishing returns on the investment. Unless of course you have money to burn and want the bleeding edge of gaming power. The rig I’m using currently, I built 5 years ago knowing that I wouldn’t have any opportunity to really upgrade so I sunk about $4000 into it, the Titan being $1000 of that cost at the time. It still works well for me today.A decent resource for keeping track of what’s going on is Maximum PC magazine. Especially when it comes to PC builds.
