    Updating build , best mobo ?

    The asrock h97 is a decent motherboard and its blue accents would go well with your RAM Stick. Cant say the same for the msi, but it has blue accents as well. if you are on a budget, dont even consider z97's because it wouldnt make sense for you to pay more for what you're not going to use...

    Is this build okay for AE?

    If its just the tower case and its components, its plenty. You can do something similar to this and it will get you through. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i5-6400 2.7GHz Quad-Core Processor ($183.88 @ OutletPC) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO...

    Need help picking low budget graphics card

    Diablo 3 isnt GPU hungry, you can get away with a gtx 750 ti with it. but if your budget is around 100, i would suggest getting something like this: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-video-card-r7370p2255 or https://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvr736oc2gd which is around the...

    Midrange Multimedia Storage and light Gaming Build

    You should always pick SS over anything. because they oem almost 95% of all the psu. or maybe im just a fanboy of SS too :D on my first rig, i used a s12ii 520w. im still using it 2 builds later.

    $800-900 Minecraft Gaming Computer

    That'll do. The stock cooler already has thermal paste on it, but i never really had good experience with them because last time i used it, it got dried up really fast, and my 4460 throttled my gtx 970 because of heat and i found a cheap hyper t4 to replace it and some quality thermal paste...

    Midrange Multimedia Storage and light Gaming Build

    Glad to be of assistane. the gtx 950 is really sitting comfortably at a bang for the buck price with good gaming performance. not the best, but good nonetheless. you wont regret getting over anything within its price give or take 30$. i can vouch for hitachi desktar hdd's @ 7200 rpm, im just...

    Building pc for the first time

    then maybe go with an r7 370, or a gtx 950. that's about as low as you can get if you want to play the latest titles. on 1080p with enjoyable quality and framerates. Anything lower, only the 750 ti will make sense but you have to understand that its not gonna play the games today at 1080p like...

    Building pc for the first time

    Hmm. that's not too hard. Made this with a good price to performance ratio. its too bad that you missed out on the 270$ r9 390 from powercolor, as it would have made your system more ready for future games. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz...

    Counter-Strike: GO Performance Build on Budget

    Well..... the only solution i can think of is to buy like a very long lan cable. if that's not possible for you then i guess you'll have to make do with a wifi dongle afterall.. But since you're far away from the modem, i think it makes more sense to not rely on its stability for playing...

    $800-900 Minecraft Gaming Computer

    Ah the hyper 212 is kind of like my ocd since pc part picker has this incompatibility prompt that the skylake needs an aftermarket cooler. you can chuck it out of the list but hey, it never hurts to get a decent cooler, specially at that price. plus maybe there's gonna be a bios update that can...

    Advice on my choice on parts for my new PC

    I would advised against. the 970. get an r9 390. It has better memory buffer, and cheaper and pulls ahead on some games specially on 1440p. On the ssd, i'll get a mushkin 512 which is only like 5-10 dollars more expensive than your choice. i wouldnt go against the PSU because its actually a good...

    Could you make me a build

    Yeah, not much budget to work with and not that many parts to choose from with that range. picked the better and cheaper card. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K 3.7GHz Quad-Core Processor ($92.49 @ Newegg Canada) Motherboard: ASRock FM2A68M-DG3+...

    What to build a pc which can max out most mmo/moba games.

    This will max your MOBA games to the highest framrate that your monitor can give you. As for mmorpg's cant say the same as there are MMORPG's that are cpu intensive, like TERA online will shit on your system with 20 fps on loaded maps(but thats because of bad coding. some mmorpgs might be like...

    Do I need to get a new PSU?

    As long as you dont overclock, your PSU can still be with you for around sometime, just remember that its ideal efficiency is supposed to be at 80% at the most thats why they have that 80+% certification. but if you are going to get an amd card above that card's level, you might want to go and...

    Midrange Multimedia Storage and light Gaming Build

    Yes, an i3 will be enough to play your games at 1080p at excellent framrates if skyrim is your most demanding game. Your build is already enough because you already have the basic idea of what to get, the rest is just your preference. the only thing that i would advise to change is maybe spend...
