So I am looking to build a moderate level gaming PC! I have some ideas already but I am really just looking for some feedback to go off of because this is my first build. I will take any ideas into consideration, but like i said, id like to keep it cheap because I only work part-time and I have other expenses to take care of.
SO lets start with my CURRENT computer specs (Which suck...Trust me, i know..)
Mobo-Only thing im not exactly sure on but its pretty crappy. I know its branded as a Foxconn and the socket is 775.
GPU- NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT
CPU- Intel Core 2 Duo E6550
Ram-4GB of DDR2
PSU- Bluestar 650W ATX Sata fan silver edition (This power supply sucks, cheap as hell. This is a MUST replace).
I would like to upgrade to a more modern MOBO so that i can run DDr3 RAM, so please keep that in mind.
Now il tell you what i currently have already bought and what i am looking for in my computer
I have already purchased a Radeon R7 260X graphics card.
I am looking to be able to play most-all modern games. I would like to be able to play them at high, but obviously with this graphics card, a year from now that just wont be happening.
I know it sounds kinda silly, but I really am trying to go for a BLUE trend with my case LED's and everything, so keep that in mind please when offering me suggestions! I have already purchased a gaming mouse that glows blue.
Like i said, any sugestions you guys have would be great. Since iv already bought the graphics card i would rather not to spend more than I have to, so things that I will get my most bang for my buck is really appreciated.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST- If possible I would like the option to possible overclock at some point, so if we can somehow figure it out where i can still spend as little money as possible and still have parts that allow me to overclock, that would be FANTASTIC.
