Is this Gaming Pc good for the price?

[ChaoSentric]

Hey, looking to buy very first gaming pc. I know the best way is to build it yourself, but I'm not really interested in going through that extra stress and I'm quite clumsy when it comes to putting stuff together so I definitely want a pre-built one. I was looking at Ibuypower and cyberpc and so far cyber is by far cheaper on the same exact build. Cyber is currently having a sale and was just wondering if this was pretty good for the price. The sale ends this Sunday so please let me know by then. Yes i know its not much time lol.

What's the price? And a lot of its a waste like LGA 2011 platform for a 4820k just a waste. 16gb of ram also a waste unless youre into video editing

 

[Transmaniacon]

You are going to be paying about 25-50% more to buy one of these pre-built computers. Honestly building a computer is very simply, there are dozens of great videos and guides online, and if you can operate a screw driver and have used Lego at some time in your life, that's all there is to it.

Hey there,
I am new here in this blog post. I am here to know more about game consoles. I hope i can find more interesting fact about it.

Thanks
Alex

That's a good machine and yes it would be much cheaper to do it yourself. Just be careful on what type of PSU they put in this thing. They are usually junk and that could eventually render all this great stuff useless. The case isn't of highest quality either.

 

[ChaoSentric]

The final price is 2,039$ with a 5% off coupon. Yea I know, but still not interested in building it. Maybe with my next custom pc.

650 Watts - Corsair CSM Series CS650M 80 Plus Gold Certified Modular Ultra Quiet Power Supply. Would this be a better power supply for the same price?

 

[ChaoSentric]

http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Spring_Gaming_Deal_X79 What case would you recommend. Theres so many, Im not sure which to choose. Also id like to keep the price to around 2k

 

[cball1311]

I think that that is a bit low on the rating. The 780 Ti has recommended 600W min and with all the other components and OC capability, 650W will not be enough. Do they have 750W and what brands?

 

[ChaoSentric]

oh ok. They have a crap load. here are some within my price range.
750 Watts - Corsair CX750 750W 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply
700 Watts - Cooler Master i700 700W 80 Plus Bronze Certified Active PFC Power Supply
750 Watts - EVGA SuperNOVA NEX750B 80 Plus Bronze Modular Power Supply
850 Watts - Thermaltake Smart Series SP-850M 80 Plus Bronze Modular Power Supply
1,000 Watts - AZZA Titan 1000W 80 Plus Bronze Active PFC Power supply

 

[cball1311]

To be honest, the Corsair 300R and the SeaSonic X Series 850W case and PSU would be my choice (of choices) if you can get it in.

 

[ChaoSentric]

ok, ill put in the sea sonic cause i dnt see that corsair one.

 

[cball1311]

Yeah the Corsair was the case. Corsair Carbide 300R is the full name

YOu have no use for that i7 and 16gb RAM. They are a complete waste. That CPU is for workstation PCs not gaming computers.

You can save $500-$700 and lose no performance.

 

[cball1311]

^
I did a configurator with the i5-4670K and 8GB and it came to about $1730

 

[ChaoSentric]

oh ok, didn't realize that. How long would my pc last if i lowered the specs tho? I'm trying to future proof seeing as how i won't be buying a new one for at least 5 years. so i was trying to beef it up for now, maybe get another 780ti when it starts getting low and SLI it. Also, I dnt need it right away, just cyberpc has this sale this week. I need it by August for school but might as well get a gaming pc, so is there anything coming out between now and then that i should wait?

 

[tiny voices]

It will last the same a mount of time more than likely. Future proofing isn't real anymore as new tech comes out so rapidly.

I would get an i5 4670k or AT MOST (you do not need it) an i7 4770k. DEFINITELY not the CPU you are looking at.
