Re: Need help building a desktop gaming computer You don't need Intel CPU, AMD will do just fine. Here is my breakdown of what I got of Newegg that would be just fine for you: AMD FX-6300(6 core) CPU- $139.99 AsRock 880GM-LE Motherboard- $59.99 Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB(2x4gb) - $$34.99 EVGA GTX650- $109.9(with a $10 rebate) Seagate Barracuda 500gb Hard Drive- $59.99 Gigabyte GZ-F5HEB Case- $22.99 Cooler Master ExTreme 500w PSU- $39.99(AND $10 rebate) Artic Freezer A30- $29.99 Asus DVD Burner- $19.99
Total: $517 before taxes and shipping, and before $20 rebate. It is under your $600 budget. It would be perfect for gaming, and all of this is on newegg.com.
EDIT: Replaced the 550ti with a GTX650 -- No Victim=No Crime |

Oh, why do I bother, who is posting this anyways... #1, this is a BUDGET gaming build with a $500-$600 price range. AMD is perfectly fine, I have one myself. Now, he doesnt need a $150 motherboard to play his games. He can upgrade it if he wants, and it has good reviews. Coolermaster supply has good reviews, will power everything and is a good price. Outdated video card, just fixed it with a GTX650 for $10 more. Crap case, doesnt really matter. The case will fit everything, and again, he can upgrade if he wants. If this was a higher price range, surely I would have different parts. -- No Victim=No Crime |
