Building New Pc

[AJtheGreat]

I do not know very much about building a Pc, and would like advice on all the parts I will need. This will be a gaming PC and my budget is £600-700, I would like to run games on higher settings from the 2013-2015 bracket, games like BF4 etc.

this build is much better. The gtx 760 is a bit outdated and that is a REALLY bad deal for it. This intel CPU is better and will perform better.

The build is just better all around, ask any questions if you have them.

could you recommend a slightly cheaper video card?

 

[Rhezner]

keep in mind that the GPU is the single most important part in a gaming rig as far as fps goes, if you were to go cheaper get a 960 or an r9 280 but here are some benchmarks to compare the 390 with the 760.

this is an extrapolation and you should skip straight to the benchmarks. This reviewer is legit.

here is a more direct comparison between the 760 and the 970

then compare the 390 with the 970
