| DeadNotSleeping said: I'm hoping to build a gaming PC in the coming months but I have never done anything like that before. I'm trying to do this on a budget, 500-700 dollars, but I have no idea how realistic that is. I may be forced to abandon that notion if it simply cannot be done. It is my intent to get Skyrim up and running with some of these beautiful mods I've been hearing about, but I don't know how to go about assembling something from the ground up to pull it off. So, few things. What do I need/what do you recommend? Where would I get those things? What price should I expect for them? And most importantly: what do I need to do in order to keep the PC performing well (antivirus, internet use, etc.)? I appreciate all your feedback. |
Right, so assuming you have M&K&Monitor
Here are the things you need
Case
Motherboard
CPU
GPU
RAM
Storage
Maybe disc drive?
Power supply
So basically, I am not sure what the best components are for that price, but BUY FROM NEWEGG if you are in America... I don't actually live there, but everything I hear is that that is the place to buy
As for what you need, I am not sure quite what to reccomend, but to play Skyrim up and running with all the mods, you might struggle on that budget, maybe look at these

The GTX 670 is roughly $400 I think and that seems to be what you want to get Skyrim running at the maximum with all the mods
