Author Topic: I want to build a computer but...  (Read 1893 times)

I know nothing about them so I don't know what parts to get. I want a computer that can play modern games at 30 fps while being recorded, inclusion of prices of the parts and the total price would be great. I could also use recommendations for monitor, keyboard, mouse, and headset (preferably one that picks up as little background noise as possible).

you're probably gonna end up dropping $700+ in total for everything

I'm fully aware it will be expensive but it would be much better than a pre-built of the same price

30fps while recording on what settings?


max
wait recording with something like fraps or an external capture card?

a program like fraps, I don't know if it will be specifically fraps

now a few more questions and then lots of people will be able to suggest fine-tuned builds for you
amd or intel for the processor?
nvidia or amd for the graphics card?
case size?

new 4th question: do you want to be able to overclock in the future?

this is pretty good and it has an rx 480 for $730 without rebates
im sure Pentium will come in here and make a much better build than me tho

>AMD FX-8320E 3.2GHz 8-Core Processor


would anyone mind telling me if there's anything wrong with this build?

Like I said I don't know anything about computers so I can't really answer these questions but I guess I'll say intel for the processor since all of my computers have used that. I want the case to be big enough in case I need to add another hard drive or something. I don't think I will overclock because I don't want to risk breaking it.

then this one should be great for you unless someone more knowledgeable than me could come up with something better for about the same or lower pirce

overclocking is really safe just read up and dont push it too hard

also make sure you have the right cooling

i've got a 6500 and a 970 and i can run everything on max so im sure a 6400 should be able to do it too, but that core clock is a little low

I'm unlucky enough to screw it up so I don't want to even try
