Buy lots of ram. RAM = SPEED
(source: I have like 1000 ram)

get a Ryzen R5 + a 480/580 or a GTX1070 if it fits your budget. My personal recommendation is to wait for Vega though.

>>384910852
Get a prebuilt.

>>384915115
wait what

that's actually not a bad deal

>>384910852
Ryzen for sure, 1600 is the sweet spot, with a B350 motherboard for OCing, the cooler that comes with the 1600 will be fine for OCing.

Video card is the best price/performance for your budget, spend a lot on this, if you can afford a 1080 or 1070, definitely do it, a 480, 580 or 1060 will still be fine though.

Any DDR4 ram will be fine (you will need it for your mobo)


Cheap 50$ case, they are all fucking fine.

Big dog cheap 2TB HDD

Done as fuck, big games big fun cheap money.
Cheap but good 600W power supply

>>384915370
PSU is probably shit
most likely the case aswell, it will probably have airflow/cooling issues and if you plan to upgrade it depends on the case again, if it's shit you have to buy everything all over again instead of just a couple of pieces

t. someone who bought a prebuild when younger

>>384915115

That is probably one of the best pre-built deals I have ever seen in my 22+ years of PC gaming.

>>384916067
oh and the HDD might be a WD green or something not ideal for videogames

>>384916067
>if the case is shit you have to buy everything all over again instead of just a couple of pieces

no?

>>384915370
>>384916081
Because it's a fucking lie.

No fucking way walmart has it at $1000 and Amazon at $3000. Not even refurbished can I see it anywhere near that low.

>>384916432
most prebuilts are more compact compared to normal PCs hence it will limit you alot if you plan on replacing stuff, especially the GPU

Wait for Black Friday and buy all the top of the line shit for dirt cheap on Amazon. I got $3k worth of equipment for about $1.5k and I somehow ended up with a second graphics card that I didn't even pay for. Got a hundred bucks for it by selling to a friend.

>>384916639
so just buy an 80$ corsair instead of a bunch of new parts???

>>384916067
Nah, that's the best deal I've seen in a very long time. Only thing that'll suck is the cooler, case (maybe) and the psu. Even then I'd still go for it.

>>384916578
it's not even the same one

anyway the walmart one is probably on a deal

>>384911697

Dumb question but everything in the list is guaranteed to be compatible and fit right?

>>384917221
yes. even if you make your own build the website will warn you about any incompatibilities
>>384917294
no. you posted the wrong pic but I'l too lazy to check the archives for it. we get it. you browsed /v/ for 2 years and now have a massive uncontrollable hate for anything prebuilt and will nit pick it to hell. congrats

>>384917221
The only major compatibility issue you need to look out for is CPU socket on your motherboard. Everything else more or less follows global standards.

>>384910852
>amd on fire

nvdia card actually set fire to a house, check news

That being said I still use nvidia, got a gtx 1080

>>384910852
You can get a pretty good PC for a grand if aren't also factoring in peripherals which no one ever does.

>>384917449
No, the hate comes from using a prebuilt for 3 years, also the wrong pic was just hand exercises.

so what's the functional difference between GTX 1070 and 1080? I don't care about maxing everything out but I want to run most games solidly on default settings for a while.


Also what do people generally get SSDs for over HDD?

>>384918492
The difference in performence is meaningful, but the difference in price is much greater. 1080 is enthusiast territory, 1070 sits in a pretty decent price/performance spot.

>>384918492
it's got noticeable extra juice but desu the only games you can't max out at 1080p with a 1070 you probably aren't interested in playing or can't be maxed out with a 1080 either. only reason to get a 1080 is if you want something above 1080p or don't want to be bothered with any upgrade for the next 5 years, and get called a retard by /v/

>>384919221
also to be fair I got a 980 at 1080p and got called a retard by /v/ but that shit got outclassed before the generation was even over so I'm not even sure anymore

>>384918492
>Also what do people generally get SSDs
probably because they are much faster as there are no mechanical elements

Listen to this guy
Wait for the Vega release, its gonna blow out all other cards in terms of power/cost

>>384919594
that's what marketing people have said about the cards of both companies for the past 10 years

it's just a minor increase in performance light decrease in power consumption. always. always. just get a 1080ti now an be happy for at least 3 years

>>384919594
Vega is shit
Gonna be overpriced, its got shitty power consumption among other things
Wait for Volta which will actually bring something new to the table

This is what I did, except with a GTX 1050 (inb4 why not Ti, don't judge me) and 2933MHz RAM.

After ~$80 rebates, the total is around $600 and I'm satisfied while also leaving a lot of upgrade potential.

go with Intel+Nvidia imo, though I wish AMD get the most market share so that Nvidia and Intel actually have to try again, I can't bring myself to lying

>>384921408
kek. I'm the same way, usually I shill for amd but I exclusively use intel/nvidia and never had a radeon card

>>384915923
Agree with most of this but the power supply shouldn't be a "cheap" one. Always aim for "gold" power supplies.
