Author Topic: So I have been planning to build a computer for a while and need advise. (Read 1241 times)

Basically I just want to know if this would make a good build. I have heard that it is perhaps unbalanced, this is probably because I don't know what makes a GPU good. So for the GPU I went with the "Higher price and rating = better item" thing.

Please tell me if I made any terrible mistakes.

I can't afford those, I should note that I am only looking to make sure that my build is okay. I can't spend much more than this.

It should be around 550.

The GPU seems pretty bad.

power supply in there, add another dvd rom drive for like 20 bucks.

also, network adapter is integrated, dont need it seperate.

and you dont need an ssd at this budget. at least imo.

My budget is exactly $650 and I am buying a monitor that is $95.99

Are you planning to game with this?
Because I doubt you'd get very far with it if you are.

pecon98 · October 13, 2011, 11:14:34 PM

Yes, I want to game with it.

Yeah you should probably drop the wireless card/fancy cooling things and go for a better gpu.

Recommendations?

Would this be a good video card for me to use?

Extrude · October 13, 2011, 11:31:59 PM

Assuming you don't buy any cooling systems or the network card, I'd recommend this.

Edit: It's also only 100 bucks after rebates and that stuff.

pecon98 · October 13, 2011, 11:35:28 PM

If I go with that I'll get this (It's the updated version of what you linked).

But I still want to know if

Since I may not be able to get that more expensive one.
