New BUDGET Build!!!

[zolton33]

Consoles will never beat PCs. If gaming companies find out a way to utilize all four cores or so in a console, chances are, they will be doing the same with the PC. More units, a bigger map, etc. in PC games dont hurt. 😀

@zolton, more RAM doesnt mean you will hurt your FPS more lol. (Maybe sometimes, but its quite rare.)

It does mean you will not gain much fps above it and yes you can hurt your fps a bit under some circumstances i guess i should of been a bit more clear. But it still remains that 8 gigs seems to be the sweet spot with regards to gaming and ram at the moment. Although that could change in a few years time as ram is a lot cheaper now with the ddr3 then it was with ddr2.

So you said you had 630$ for the PC, now after reading the posts you say you want an Intel six core processor. You realize they are 600$? Your budget is 630$, CPU is 600$. You will be able to afford the CPU and a stick of RAM maybe?

First: It would be down the road as a future upgrade.
Second: It would be maybe second hand because I have a friend which has that six core.
You misunderstood.

Haven't you forgotten I wanna do 3D and Video Editing.
And is dual channel RAM better for gaming or quad channel is as good?

8GBs is actually ALREADY future proof. 😀
16GBs for editing, programming, or whatever.
3D for a 7th grader. Wow. 16Gbs will do.
Dual channel/quad channel, any will do.

How can I select a best answer?

There should be a "Select as Best Answer" button under the "Reply to (insert name here)" button
