I'm tired of my old HP laptop not even running mmorpgs at the lowest settings with only 20ish FPS, also im tired of my laptop overheating if i have that game on, and Google chrome open. I'm guessing maybe the fans are a bit dusty, and the inside needs to be cleaned out but, i dont feel like taking apart another laptop.
I've decided to get a gaming pc. At first I looked at sites like Stealth gaming machines, Falcon, iBuyPower, and others. I read somewhere on the internet that it may be cheaper to buy the parts and build the gaming pc yourself. I want to be able to max out all games on a humble 1080p screen, I'd also like to see above 60fps. I however do not want to go past $1600. So here I am, I'd like to get your opinions on this build, will it get the most bang for the buck? Will this last me? What parts would you swap out?
Here is the build:
Case: NZXT Phantom 410 se
Mobo: ASRock Z77 Extreme3 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 ATX
Cpu: 3570k i5
Gpu:4gb Asus GTX680
Mem: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2x 4gb)
Psu: CORSAIR HX Series HX750 750W
Storage: SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series 256gb SSD
For the cpu cooler, ill replace the stock with
Enermax ETS-T40 T.B.APOLLISH CPU Cooler
And ill use a network adapter because, I don't have an Ethernet outlet in my room
