So I challenge all who read this to post what they want me to build, and I will show them how cheap it is. Example Questions: Forum User 1: "Build a PC that can run Far Cry 3 maxed out in 1080p." OP: Posts short parts list and total price that maxes out Far Cry 3 at 30 FPS at listed specs.
Forum User 2: "Build a PC that beats the Wii U" OP: Posts short parts list and total price that beats the Wii U soundly for as cheap as possible.
NOTE: 1)I am not going to include OS in price since windows rarely needs to be bought, and Linux is free. However add $75 to the price if you want to know what it would cost with Windows 7. 2)Mouse, Monitor, keyboard and other stuff EVERYONE has are also not included. 3)At times I may not max out a game using rediculous settings. I.E. Anything above x2 MSAA in BF3 is not at all noticable in 1080p. |
1. If you're building a custom PC, you need to include Windows price.
2. Why not? Mouse, Monitor and Keyboard are all necessary to use the computer. Monitor shouldn't be included in price though since we don't include TVs when comparing consoles. But keyboard and mouse are essential. Would you be able to use a console without a controller?
