Budget gaming PC recommendations?

Adam Moore3 said:Nobody can really say for sure how the optimization is going to turn out. Based on the system requirements, though, I guess the game doesn't look overly demanding, so it might run pretty decently even on budget builds. That is, assuming it doesn't end up being another Grand Theft Auto or Assassin's Creed situation. For about 4 mil, maybe something like this:
I think I might be looking at a Gigabyte 970A-DS3P motherboard, which uses an AM3+ socket along with an AMD 970 SB950 chipset and supports four sticks of DDR3 memory running at either 2000MHz via overclocking or 1866MHz.
I think I have one single stick of 4GB DDR3 Kingmax RAM here, running at 1600MHz, specifically the FLGF model.
I suppose there's one Spire Kepler Rev.2 cooler here, which I think uses a 92mm fan and measures about 96.5x51x125 mm, and it seems to support the 1156, 775, and FM1 sockets.
I suppose there's one Fortron 400W Hexa Plus 400 power supply available, which includes a 12cm fan.
I guess there is one MS PHOENIX mid-tower case available, though it doesn't come with a power supply. It should fit either an ATX or mATX motherboard, I suppose.
I suppose I have one Sapphire R9 270 2GB, the OC Boost version with 2GB of GDDR5 and a 256bit bus, if anyone might be interested.
I guess I'm looking at an AMD FX-Series X6 6100 processor, which runs at 3.3GHz with 14MB and a 95W TDP on the AM3+ socket.
I think there is one Toshiba 1TB hard drive here, running at 7200rpm with a SATA 6 Gb/s interface and 32MB cache, specifically the DT01ACA100 model.
$1313 I guess I should probably mention that I was spending some time over on adm.hr earlier today.
I guess I ended up making a bit of a compromise with my processor; I decided to go with an older version of a similar Intel Core i5-4460 because it seemed like the more sensible way to go. $83 It might be better to go with the cheaper option, since that extra savings could probably go toward a more powerful graphics card, which I suppose is the most important part for you. It would also be a good idea to add another 4 GB of RAM later on, though I guess that just isn't feasible within your current budget right now, so maybe it's best to just pick up another 4 GB once you've managed to save up a bit more. $88Hey there. 😁
Well, I guess if that's actually the case, then things might be different. $83 I guess there’s a bit of a difference there; it doesn't feel quite the same to me when you're looking at $4,250 versus $4,999. 🙂
