Affordable Gaming PC!
Lets look into this set up! These are the components I have recommended for this build. Ringing in under $650.00!
$69.99
This case guarantees proper cooling, with two 120mm case fans, for your gaming PC. |
|
$79.99
I am recommending this 550W power supply so you are not power starved to support your dedicated video card. I like this power supply as well because you do not have to deal with a lot of cables, when you are done building your PC. Being 80 Plus Bronze certified it is extremely handy for an affordable power supply, which will helps it keep quiet and cool. Which saves you money on your electricity bill. |
$49.99
The motherboard I have recommended above supports the Intel Core i3-2100 and is a great choice for an affordable gaming PC. |
$119.69
This Intel Core i3-2100 will not let you down. You will be able to play any game you would like with no difficulty at all. Due to Hyper Threading it out preforms all other processors in its price range. Also if you did not know the CPU fan is included. |
$27.60
I have recommended these 4GBs of RAM because they are reliable. As well as it is required to handle the most up to date video games. Along with supporting your background applications. |
Graphics Card: Radeon HD 6870 1 GB
$169.99
The Radeon HD 6870 is capable of handling most games at 1920 x 1080. There is a possibility you might have to lower details just a little in more recent and more demanding games. |
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 500 GB SATA III ST500DM002
$78.38
The Seagate Barracuda ST500DM002 is one of the new Seagate Barracuda hard drives that provides great performance. |
DVD Drive: Sony SATA Internal DVD+/-RW Drive
$17.89
This drive is able to read and burn CDs and DVDs. It is silent and is suitable to do all major formats. |
$30.00
Although the Processor comes with its own heat sink fan. I thought I would recommend this heat sink fan, it is optional but offers amazing cooling and is quieter the then stock CPU fan. |
So there you have it! Everything you need for your affordable awesome gaming PC. Your total should be in the range of $615.00 plus tax. Your new PC will be able to handle games like Diablo 3, League Of Legends, Battlefield 3, ect. with no problem at all. If you decide to this whole build or use any components from this build.
