Building pc for the first time

[OrangeGod]

I finally came to the conclusion that I want to build myself a pc. I'm currently thinking about i5 4460 and GTX 750Ti with 8 ram. Will this be good enough to handle games for 2016 and later ? I'm not trying to reach ultra setting just playable amount of fps. I could use some guides. I don't really know if I am doing something wrong. I think of buying this motherboard " Gigabyte B85M-HD3 (1150/B85/DDR3) " and probably 550W power supply.

If you are just going to game on it I would go to a FX-6300 and R9 380.

Depends on your budget. The games that are coming out today arent exactly budget graphics card friendly so you can bet that it will be only more demanding at a later time. Tell us your budget and we'll let you know what you can but, and how far it might get you. it would also help us help you if you tell us what resolution you want to be playing at and from what range is the fps you want to see.

I have a 1920x1080 monitor. Acer V226HQL. My budget is around 700$ maximum. I hope getting more than 30 fps, I guess.

It looks good, but in Bulgaria this GPU costs 250$ alone. CPU: 250$, Motherboard:200$.. so the whole build goes probably to 800$ and above.

Hmm. that's not too hard. Made this with a good price to performance ratio. its too bad that you missed out on the 270$ r9 390 from powercolor, as it would have made your system more ready for future games.

I can't afford that GPU in Bulgaria. Its like 300$.

then maybe go with an r7 370, or a gtx 950. that's about as low as you can get if you want to play the latest titles. on 1080p with enjoyable quality and framerates. Anything lower, only the 750 ti will make sense but you have to understand that its not gonna play the games today at 1080p like the panel you have, at least not in the highest settings. maybe you can get away with the lowest settings on 1080p and probably get higher framerates if you play at 720p.
