recommendation for gaming PC

[jinbojung1974]

Hi all,

I need some help. I am trying to get gaming PC and I found 3 systems as following,
can you recommend which one would the best out of 4?
Thanks

1. AMD FX-8320, GT 1030 Graphics, 16GB DDR3, 1TB HD
2. AMD FX-8320, RX 560 4GB, 8GB DDR3, 1TB HD
3. AMD FX-8320, MSI GT 730 Graphics, 8GB DDR3, 2TB HD
4. AMD FX 8320, NVIDIA GeForce GT710 1GB, 8GB DDR3, 1TB HD

Out of those I would definitely go with the RX 560 4GB.

Just so you know though, the FX-series CPU is old now. It's okay to pair with an RX 560, but if you ever wanted to upgrade your GPU you'd be limited by your old CPU.

I'd keep saving to get something over 5k on here. 1050s aren't too bad. 1030 for gaming will be a struggle, but fine for older games with low settings/res.

toms has a budget build for $5-600 or so that they update regularly.
go to ebay if that's not affordable.

None, there's no reason to be investing in AMD FX right now. What is your overall budget?

 

[jinbojung1974]

Budget is about $500

building around an i3 8100 and gtx 1050 should fit into that. if the 1060 can make it's a lot better.

 

[jinbojung1974]

Thank you for help. I will try to do that

Is this $500 as a full system? If so, i'd look at something like these:

If you can spare a little more budget i'd try squeeze and SSD in for Boot Drive. Hope this helps!
