Best 2000$ Build

[SlickyNicky]

mmkay, i already have the SSD and Hard Drive. im wanting DDR4 in this machine for future Proof Reasons. this new PC will be for web browsing and gaming. im wondering what the best Bang for the Buck setup would look like right now. im hoping the 5th Gen i5s come out before i build it next summer. and hope the R9 400 series will be out before then as well(heard the come out next January. my price limit is 2000$ abd lower, if lower is better than go lower.

Your grammar hurts my face....

Try using PCpartpicker.com, they have a pretty simple interface and you can try various builds.

So you don't plan to build for another year and you want us to pick out parts for you now? Yea that won't be helpful for you at all. Wait till about 1-2 weeks before you plan to buy to ask for build suggestions.

 

[SlickyNicky]

umm i said pick out the parts for right now

5th gen i5's? Do you not realize that 6th gen came out yesterday? Anything we suggest now would be pointless.

"before i build it next summer." Not going to waste my time making a build for you that will be 80%-100% useless to you in a year.

 

[SlickyNicky]

Then why even Reply?

 

[logainofhades]

Anything chosen now, will not be the same things chosen a year from now. Prices change too frequently, on top of new hardware that will be released by then. It is a waste of everybody's time to come up with something now, that won't be purchased a year from now.

 

[Derza10]

I was letting you know that you should wait till closer to the time of purchase, because anythign we give you now will be of no help to you.

 

[SlickyNicky]

thats wan't directed to you Dezra. to the Logan guy, and i wasn't aware the the 6th gen i5's came out yesterday.

 

[spentshells]

Things change far too quickly for us to recommend anything of any real value.

yeah Considering Intel has their new 6th gen i5's and i7's put. my bad Ladies and Gents! i got a I5 3450! i think its time for an upgrade.

 

[logainofhades]

Your CPU is still just fine, to be honest. I am still using a 3570k, myself, and there are plenty on here still using older i5 2xxx chips. What are the rest of your system specs?

 

[SlickyNicky]

ummm 8 gigs of Corsair veangence DDR3 1600 MGHZ, got a 7870 GPU, but the fan is going. got a micro ATX MOBO a 750W semi Modular PSU. 2tb hdd and 240 Gb SSD

 

[logainofhades]

Honestly, all you really need is a GPU upgrade. A GTX 970 would be a great upgrade, for you.

You will only see about 10-15% performance increase going with the upgrade ( unless of course you are going to overclock with a K version CPU - then you will see ~30%+ better performance). Honestly i wouldn't waste my money on a CPU rigth now. Wait to see how AMDs Zen turns out and see what intel releases in response to it before you upgrade, imo.

im Considering Upgrading to a K series Processor From Intel and i might as well go new. but if want that, ill have to get a new MOBO which means new faster DDR4 memory as well. my 7870 is falling a bit behind these days. I don't really like my case which is a Carbide 300r because my Components get really dusty. im looking at the 750D, which has a side panel. if i do get that case extra Cables lying around look ugly which means a new PSu, im thinking an 850w fully modular one from Corsair. the only parts im keeping is my HDD and my SSD.
