I'm looking to make a custom-made computer that's really good for running games on it, but I am not savvy at building computers, so I'll need people's suggestions on what to get. Don't worry about the price; I can't afford to start anyway so this will give me an idea at what to aim for once I get a new job.
So, your suggestions?

Well, it depends on what you want. If you like to run mutliple programs while gaming, I suggest starting out with a quad core, but if you just use one application at a time, I would shoot for dual core. In terms of RAM, graphic cards, and all those details, take a look at the games you have, look at the minimum requirements, and then figure from there. Some parts also have a better compatibility with others, which increases general performance. Most of this can all be arranged at Toms Hardware, they have a step by step process on what you want, what price, and what parts work good together. It can be found here: www.tomshardware.com/reviews/balanced-gaming-pc-overclock,2699.html Also, if you're a bit picky on thriftyness, try searching the suggested parts on multiple sites to try and find the cheapest parts. Hope this helps. |
