Build Under $450

[Multisupermono]

Just wanted to see if you guys could help me find a good gaming computer build for under $450 without rebates. I do not plan to overclock but will if you recommend it. This as well goes for crossfire. I do not need a monitor or OS and plan to buy very very soon.

But might you make an estimate?

I would get the G860 with 7850.

No estimates necessary. You get what you pay for but you won't have problems running GTA IV as long as you don't try on maxing it.

But might you make an estimate?

@1920x1080, that rig will avg 60+ fps for pretty much any game made in 2008 (e.g. GTA 4) or earlier. (crysis with cranked graphic settings notwithstanding ). The rig will hit 50 fps for pretty much any game in existence @1920x1080with 4xMSAA and 4xAF, as long as resource hogs like Depth of Field are off.

If your monitor's res is less than that, your avg framerate will of course be higher.

enjoy!

I can relate to the car thing. Lol. My Jetta is on bags and has ridiculous fitment wheels on it that just make it way less driveable.

Oh cars....my other and even greater passion.

What do you drive?

2010 Mazda Axela 2.0 (its a 3, but I got a JDM Axela badge on it). I'll get a picture up here if you want to see it, but its dark right now, maybe I will take one tomorrow.

That's awesome. I just have your run of the mill mk4 Jetta on bags. I'll get a picture up in a second. Sorry for jacking this thread btw. Lol

 

[Deemo13]

I actually really like those rims on that car, and the lowering looks nice! I just have mine on a set of lowering springs and a set of generic 5 spokes, and some LED lighting on the interior and license plate.

Thanks! they are pretty common on these cars. They are cheap and easy to get "stance"

17x8.5 front
17x10 rear

The car used to be on coilovers but I got tired of breaking oil pans and decided to go air. lol

Your car sounds pretty dope too.

 

[Deemo13]

Its not all that awesome. It hugs corners amazingly though. I'm trying to get more of a rallycar look though and more style, as I ended up with an auto 🙁

I'm going to get some HID's and aftermarket fogs and be pretty much done with it. I like the stance on yours though. Looks pretty ba.

Thanks very much. she's a bitch to drive but I love her. because its a 5 speed I have to be careful accelerating on corners due to binding and breaking axles. lol. I wish my car handled well. Removed front sway bar for clearance and control arms that max out on any dip in the road aren't much fun.

 

[Deemo13]

Lol, sometimes style has a sacrafice. That's kinda what I'm trying to ride. A fine line between style and handling (more towards the handling side). I'll put a picture in the morning.

Yea...sorry about that one. Sometimes that happens on this forum.

Well, since this thread is going to close, I may as well upload the one picture of my car I took during the night:

Not exactly the best image I could have taken, but here it is. Pretty basic as I said, but has the right amount of flair.

Looking good! Being from the VW community I feel obligated to tell you to slam the ish out of it, but I think it looks really good!
