I will soon be joining the pc master race from a life long console pleb. I know nothing about gaming computers and only have a 2000 budget not including getting someone to build it and punting windows 10 on it how did i do.

You can get a 1080p/60fps/ultra machine for muuuch much lower than that.

I don't know what resolution you plan playing at, but that gtx 1080 is clearly overkill for 1080p.
Get an other case, you don't need such a huge monstrosity.
The rest in okay.
>>
>>55933514
an you link me to a ultra machine you are talking about?. Yes i wll be playing in 1080p i want every thing on ultra and 60fps or above can i do this?.
>>
>>55933399
That build is okay. I don't see why it has a penny pinching Seasonic G series power supply though. With colossal budgets like that, you might as well get a Seasonic Platinum or PRIME.
>>
>>55933514
People keep telling me to get the big cases because of airflow and being upgrade when you want too.

>>55933609
Is it safe for the computer because it's so cheep?.
>>
>>55933665
It's not "cheap", it's just cheap for the kind of budget that computer has. The G series is a very high quality power supply. 99% of people have worse. It's just not top of the line.

A 1070 will do that

A smaller ssd and a games HDD will do that
>>
>>55933757
To hide his pc noob ness :^)
>>
>>55933399
that case is way overpriced
i'd get a better cpu cooler, the noctua d15s is great
also faster ram, 3200 should do
you could also get a smaller ssd and save some money to invest in external hard drives
with that setup you can easily get ~90fps at 1440p in the latest games, it's WAY overkill for 1080p
>>
>>55933769
can you recommend some thing on a 2000 strict budget.
>>
>>55933399
What the fuck

Here, way better for the money

also includes a 1440p 144hz IPS display, the 480 will be fine for 1440p gaming overall, and eventually high end GPUs will drop enough in price to saturate the display

You just need an after market 480 of some kind

Other option is a 27" 4k display, which you can run lighter games at 4k, but you have some scaling issues potentially with 4k at 27" it would be really nice looking though I guess

I agree that build is dumb, but on a 2k budget for a whole setup 480 underpowered, especially for 1440p where the card will require dropping settings or resolutions within 2 months.
>>
>>55933908
It'll be fine, there's still room for an upgrade to something else, but there's also taxes/shipping to consider

and I don't know if he needs everything else like audio solutions, mouse/keyboards ect

sounds like he wouldn't have any of that, or even a proper desk or chair

it's why I left a ton of room


but I'd mostly focus on the display more than the GPU
>>
>>55933846
>480 fine for 1440p
Okay champ lol.

The 480 doesn't even out perform the GTX 980 and that can't handle 1440p worth shit.

Does 1440p 60fps with no real issues on high settings

even does DOOM at Ultra at 73fps with vulkan


In the esports games where 144hz is useful, those games will easily run at high frame rates without issue

Sub 60 on all games other than doom

>>
>>55934065
>>55934093
Most of the games are tested on ultra, I said high settings, also the panel is free-sync down to 30hz if I remember right, so that will smooth things out as well

Aside from that, the only thing that can properly saturate a 1440p 144hz display or a 4k display is a Titan X

or are you going to say a 1070 can do it if you lower settings?
>>
>>55934110
Are you the OP with the 2k budget? There's literally no reason to do that
>>
>>55934189
Yes i'm OP to do what?
>>
>>55934175
Nobody except you is talking about 144Hz, this thing can't even do 60. If you already have to lower graphics to even get 60 FPS, it's not a suitable card for that resolution.

Unless you're the ultimate poorfag and simply have no other choice.
>>
>>55934236
You have the budget for a solid gaming PC, and a monitor upgrade, and still have left over for peripherals

>>55933846
Just upgrade the motherboard to an H170 something with a 750W PSU if you want to try for 480 crossfire down the line to properly saturate the 1440p 144hz display

>>
>>55934286
Why the fuck would you want to play games at high settings when you can play them at ultra settings you fucking muppet? I don't know if you're blind or something, but I can tell the difference between quality levels.

I get it if you can't afford to buy the latest and greatest graphics card, but that's literally the only excuse and you shouldn't try to justify it as if it's somehow a better choice. No, it's not a better choice. It's a compromise you were forced to settle for.
>>
make sure the color scheme of all the internal parts match, don't get a red trim mobo and a blue trim cpu cooler!
>>
>>55933399
Buy prebuilt. I'm not joking.
>>
>>55934331
That i7 is the best value skylake chip, it turbos to 4ghz and with a budget board costs the same as a 6600K with $30 hyper 212 and Z170 board

At most you'd OC an i5 to 4.5ghz, and even then obviously it's going to lose out to 8 threads at 4ghz in multi-threaded applications

what's wrong with 1440p 144hz?

And what's wrong with micro ATX? The board has solid power delivery and USB 3.1

and there's nothing wrong with a 480 since the driver fix for power delivery, it's the better choice for the long run for Vulkan/DX12 support


Stop yer shitposting

>>55934404
Not all of the budget has to go to the GPU, the display is just as important if not more important, and there's also other things to consider, like a nicer keyboard and mouse, which OP doesn't have, in addition to headphones + speakers


I have a Fury X and I can confirm while there is a difference going from 1080p medium on a 7850 to 4k VSR on medium-high or 1080p Ultra, it's not a big deal at all


In addition he could easily up the 480 to a Fury or Fury X, they're on sale for $350/400 most of the time now
>>
>>55934423
As long as it runs everything on ultra and a really high fps i dont care about color.
>>
>>55934454
This has to be because people tell me never to buy pre built.
>>
>>55934511
Are you the same OP who's a console pleb? You have no frame of reference for what graphical setting differences are, why would you say you want Ultra and really high fps when you've no idea what that means or entails.

Not to mention you said that without any regard to what resolution or refresh rate monitor you want to run games on


If you're going to stick to that 1080p display you have no reason to buy a GPU above the 480 or god forbid the 1060

>I have a Fury X and I can confirm while there is a difference going from 1080p medium on a 7850 to 4k VSR on medium-high or 1080p Ultra, it's not a big deal at all
Your subjective opinion on what is a big deal and what is not is not worth anything. Just turning off hairworks makes The Witcher 3 look like shit, yet there are plenty of people going around saying "it's not a big deal at all".
>>
>>55934492
That reminds me i hi wonder if my turtle beach xbox 1 head set will work with it?. untell i can get a mid level head set. But if i have a head set why wold i need speakers?. if the music and sounds will be comeing trough the headset?.
>>
>>55934546
yes i don't know man this shit is so mind breaking like i said i don't know shit about gaming computers .
>>
>>55934550
Hairworks is just so great and important to gaming, that only one game uses it

Not to mention that it's part of an action game where you're never really going to focus on details like hair physics

Only place TressFX or Hairworks makes sense is in a sex simulator

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Md4Hmgtl8q0
>>
>>55934578
Probably just spend some money on a decent pair of headphones like the super lux 668Bs $40 sounds great

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fD-M1F6L4g

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CygBANq2TsQ

Speakers depend more on how often you think you'll use them

Turtle Beach is pretty much complete shite, but aren't they made to work on PCs and Consoles?

If you'll also need a microphone get a Samson GO mic, cheap, small, and it works great
>>
>>55934621
Stop projecting your own mindset on everyone else you fucking retard. Not everyone is literally you. It was just an example anyway. I don't care if it's hairworks or TressFX or HBAO+, higher graphics settings look better.
>>
>>55934528
Buying prebuilt saves you the shit you will go through just setting it up as you need the internet for drivers if you skimp out on getting a disk drive and you can't use the internet if you don't have the drivers for it.
Buy prebuilt. You don't need state of the art shit. Learn from there.
>>
>>55934685
>higher graphics settings look better.
Sure, but it's really nothing major, graphics have never really mattered, what matters is consistent frame rate, and being able to tell what's going on

It's not a major factor to the enjoyment of gaming, only reason I have a Fury X is to saturate my 1080p 144hz display


>>55934615
Right.

My final suggestion anyways, don't spend a lot of money, and just get something like this, which is a pretty basic standard 1080p gaming rig

The 380X has the benefit of actually being in stock

Then once you learn more and experience shit, then do more research into what your next upgrades should be, but probably a major monitor upgrade should be the first thing, overall don't blow all your load at once when you don't know what stuff means

Or just buy a small monitor upgrade now, like this 1080p 144hz TN free-sync display, it looks pretty good for a TN panel actually

>>55934492
i7 is useless for gayming, and buying a shit tier mobo just to plug in a locked i7 is retarded.

microATX is literally meme tier and is horrible to build if you don't have manlet faggot tier hands not to mention that the airflow will be absolute shit and even worse with the space heater amd meme card

1TB HD is retarded as fuck except if you are on ultimate poorfag build

See there's your problem.
This is why PC will never be a competitor towards a console. Because:
1. Troubleshooting is a requirement
2. Too many options and developers follow a standard.
3. Exclusives

If you said game enthusiast, then it's understandable. But for gaming alone.....hell no. PC is a tool first and foremost, that can be converted into an entertainment center.

Are you fucked? Building a normie pc is simple. You literally cant fuck it up. Parts go into specific spots, unless you jam things together.

Watch a youtube video on it, save yourself some money. You could have $1000 budget and still have a quality build. Fuck, I've seen gaming builds for less.

Don't buy anything pre-built, like Alienware or some meme shit.
