$1300 budget!!!!

[zathador114]

hey everyone i have a $1300 budget and i was wondering if you could go out into the lovely internet and help me find the best build within my budget!! i will be using this for mostly gaming but also ALOT of video rendering too!

i dont really care much about the links but i just want to get a round-about answer as to what kind of hardware i should get.



thanks in advance!!

if gaming and video editing is the highest priority then going i7 2600k or the new i7 3770k(sold out atm) will do the job.

if you are not interested in overclocking then going w/o the k will be more efficient for the price

PSU: go for a Seasonic 620 modular. this supply will keep your needs clean which means better airflow

GPU:a 7850 will do the job for a while if you want to upgrade to a 670 that will work to but you might need to increas your budget.

CASE: i love rocking with a nice case but it seems a 500R is out of your price range

$30 cheaper than a 500R i just like the white color on cases because i have seen to much black cases.

MOBO: just forgot about something there is a sale for a 500R with a good mobo i would love recommending this

RAM: i like going with a 8GB @ 1600 speed ram but since you are doing video rendering going to a 16 GB ram might be a better choice try to go for one with low heat sinks

i recommend going with CORSAIR VENGEANCE

this one has room for you to upgrade to more RAM if you need

this one is cheaper but won't let you upgrade to something higher later
