wanting some help with building a pc for games and other
February 4th, 2020
back again ive been thinking about building myself a new pc and i have no clue where to start as i pretty much dont no anything about the new technology of motherboards or cpu’s or anything like that..i live in australia so my price bracket is different to the USA “i want to spend about $600 in total on the box it self “i have all other componets (32” LG LCD monitor,mouse keyboard) so i need to build up just a new tower
this is the specs of my pc now that i use LOL:
Windows 7 Home premium
Intel (R) Pentium (R) 4 CPU 3.60GHZ 3.59GHZ
1.00 GB RAM
32 BIT Operating system
NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS (Microsoft Corporation – WDDM v1.1)
SB Live! 24-bit
230GB HDD
Im wanting to build something that will run new games and can also edit all my music and run (reason 4.0) with no lag delay
thanks guys

With such a “low” budget best would be to pick an AMD system, that way you will get more bang for your buck.
I’m to lazy atm to give some reccomendations
$600 won’t get you a gaming PC, but i’ll see what i can do seeing as i reside in Sydney. Which state you in so i could fine a store in that area. I’d use Mwave but they’re overpriced and buying from stores will save on shipping costs
I usually buy from PC DIY (if they still exist), MSY is too crowded.

I play most of the FPS games out there and with a similar setup, the only game I can’t run at its full settings will be 2 games that I know, COD: Black Ops and BF: BC2. If you have a older DVD drive or burner, don’t buy another one.
Looks like a solid build. I might use that setup myself. Thanks mate.
Not bad prices there Dragon Core .. very close prices compared with Umart (who i deal with), who are only in Vic and Qld ..

Agreed except the CPU (search for CPU discussion threads on WBB
)Mate, I have “512 MB vRam nVidia GeForce CUDA 9600M GT”, and i can play BF:BC2 with highest video settings… there must be sth wrong on your HD5770 card…

running the game and having it on a playable fps are 2 different things. i doubt u can play it on full setting on a high resolution.

Installed, played on High-Res, enjoyed and removed from computer… No Need Doubts
