Is this a good gaming pc build? I plan to play minecraft, dota 2, LoL, gmod, bf4, and crisis 3. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3ceK

Solution


Couple things:
1. A 4670k and a 780 will blow away any game at full ultra with the exception of using very high res (2440x 1440 or something)
2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832416775
Don't know why you're paying 140 bucks for an OS. Here's the exact same thing from newegg at 100 bucks.

I actually have a surface pro 2 for non gaming (school) stuff. I really like it and the os, which is win8.1 64 bit pro. Idk if there is a difference between pro and non pro (let me know if there is), but I at least need 64 bit bcuz minecraft recommends a 64 bit for maxing out render dist.

 


Definitely choose 64-bit if you have more than 4GB of RAM, most upcoming modern games recommend you to choose 64-bit OS anyway(Watchdogs, Titanfall, and maybe GTA V).





 


One major problem, that motherboard chipset isn't good for CPU overclocking, but you chose an overclocking CPU:

Get a Z87 chipset MOBO if you want to overclock, if you don't get the non-K version of the 4670.
 


Oh, thank you so much. Hey, do you know if there is a difference between win8.1 pro 64 bit and regular win8.1 64 bit
 
If you arent looking for a budget build go with this, it has the power of handling games maxed out at 1440p while mantaining 60fps! It has a really nice monitor in the build but if you dont need it you can always take it off. With it, it will cost you around 2300$,without it you can get it for just under 2000$.
