| Vashyo said: Games only need a strong GPU/memory and adequate CPU. Strategy games though are usually an exception because they have to track much more stuff simulatenously, so stronger and faster CPUs are plain better. His rig is fine for the purpose he's going for and I see no issues with the parts he has chosen. I would propably get a FX-6300 and AM3+ mobo myself though, it's not that much more expensive and comes with 6 cores and its overall slightly faster. 750k is also on outdated FM2 socket (though the future of AM3+ doesnt really have much planned in either at this point, so future-proofing is uncertain). but overall the differences between CPUs isn't very drastic especially for gaming, unless they're really old/laptop/mobile CPUs. I feel you have very unreasonable expectations when it comes to PCs, and you're just bashing at this point @Shido yeah not a bad idea if u want to get bit higher wattage PSU, check reviews before you buy though! PC will last long time if everythings setup correctly and u do regular maintenance on it.
Btw u might want to add steam digital sharing to your list http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/11/steam-family-sharing/ |
Thanks, I know a FX 6300 should be the ideal CPU or and i5 3350p but I didnt find an ITX AM3+ Mobo and the cost of the i5 will be much higher than expected budget. Added Steam Sharing
