budget rig between 400 and 500£

[sorscha]

Hi, I'm looking into a budget build gaming rig.
Was wondering if this would be any good, for gaming on medium to high settings
for world of tanks, warthunder, WoW, and a few newer games

AMD FX-4350 4.2GHz Quad Core (Socket AM3+)
MSI 970 Gaming AMD Socket AM3+ Motherboard
MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB Graphics Card
WD Green Desktop 1TB SATA III 3.5" Hard Drive
Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Memory Module
Aero Cool GT Advance Gaming White Midi Tower Case
Windows8 OS

I've got an 800 watt power supply from my old rig
thanks

+1; This is a great 500 quid build for the price!

If you can sure it in your budget I would switch out your 4300 to a 6300/6350

WoW is not very AMD friendly. An Intel/Nvida setup is a better choice.

Yikes. Good job I've budgeted for a replacement in my build above.

That power supply is, I'm afraid, a piece of CiT

Thanks
I think i go for
Intel Core i3-4150 3.5GHz Dual Core (Socket 1150)
MSI H81M-P33 Intel Socket 1150 Motherboard
G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL 8GB DDR3 1600MHz
WD Blue Desktop 1TB SATA III 3.5" Hard Drive
XFX AMD Radeon R9 285 2GB Graphics Card
AvP Storm-P28 Gaming Black Midi Tower Case
Microsoft Windows 8.1 64-bit DVD OEM
total cost around 470£
everything comes from CCl computers, because it's next to my door,
so the power unit i got will have to do for now

 

[LucoTF]

Looks fine, there's a small chance that your motherboard will need a bios update before it will work with the i3-4150 but ccl are very good and might even just do it for you if you asked them

thanks, i knew there a chance i needed to update bios first, was going to ask at ccl to do that for me if possible.
After all, all my part would come from them, and i got around 30£ left to pay for the update

Someone on tom's just last week bought a mobo from ccl and they updated the bios for free

 

[sorscha]

WD Blue Desktop 1TB SATA III 3.5" Hard Drive

[LucoTF]
