Ordering components for a PC.

[RashidSalem]

So, I have a R9 290 OC TRI X from Sapphire atm but I am quiet confused on what parts to get.

I need a mother board that supports this card, a power supply, a case, a ram, SSD, HDD and any other that i missed.

So, this thread is about creating a new pc but having the GPU.

this pc is mostly for playing Skyrim, Guild Wars 2, etc.

Budget? Expected Performance/Resolution etc?

 

[RashidSalem]

750 euro, expect to run everything on high or ultra at least, resolution 1920x1080. We got the gpu we just want the others with the 750 euros budget.

Did this on german PC part picker to get Euros. Just a bit over but nice and fast with OC potential and SSD.

Thank you very much kind sir.

 

[Matt Dobe]

No problem at all. Feel free to play around with the case etc if you don't like it just make sure it supports ATX motherboard size.

As an R9 290 TriX user myself, please consider buying a bit bigger PSU. Had a 650W Corsair PSU and it died after a month, bought a 750W Seasonic one, works like a charm. Just my personal experience.

Good point. Just based it off my PSU which is still running strong *crosses fingers* Hah.
