So, I Got This Little Brother Who Love To Play Games,
His PC Was Old And Consisting Of Parts Like Core 2 Duo E6750 (2.66 Ghz), Intel Motherboard (DG31PR), 9400 GT 1 GB, 2 Gb DDR 2 Ram, 400W Not So Good PSU
As U Can See His PC Is Pretty Outdated And Yet He Used To Play All Games @ Full Res With Almost Maxed Out Settings (AA Turned Off)
He Is Happy If He Runs The Game Above 20 FPS
His Monitor Res Is 1440 x 900
The Only Games He Was Unable To Play Were Bioshock Infinite, Crysis 3, Metro, And Some Very New And GPU Intensive Games
He Bought That PC About 8 Years Ago And Have Been Playing On It Ever Since Then
Now His PC Died Recently And I Offered Him Buy A New One
The Parts I Picked Are
CPU - FX 6300 - 7000 Rupees - 113$
Cooler - Hyper 212 Evo (Already Have)
Mother Board - Asus M5A97 R2.0 - 7000 Rupees - 113$ (Cant Go 990 FX Series Costs 178$)
Ram - Coasir 8 GB DDR 3 - 6000 Rupees - 96$
GPU - Asus GTX 650 Ti - 10,000 Rupees - 162$
Case - NZXT Guardian 921 RB - 5000 Rupees - 80$ (Non Negotiable Lol He Loves It)
As U Can See The Prices Are 40% ~ 60% More Where I Live .. 7770, 7750, 650Ti Costs The Same So I Picked The 650 Ti (Unless I Can Find A 7770 For Less Than 7000 Rupees 113$ Where I Live)
Well The Real Problem Comes With His PSU
Should I Buy Him A Cosair 750W PSU For 7200 Rupees 117$ Or A 500W For 3000 Rupees 50$ Or A 600W For 4500 Rupees 78$
Since Am Tight On Budget And I Expect This Pc To Last Atleast Half A Decade With Him. Should I Go For A 750W PSU So That He Can Upgrade Later After 5 Years Without Needing A New PSU If The PSU Lasts That Long Or Should I Just Buy A 500w PSU (Or 600W) Cause He Is Literally Not Gonna Upgrade Anything For 5 Years. PS Am Really On Tight Budget And That's Almost My 3 Months Salary Right There Already.
I Dunno How Long A PSU Will Last So Yea, Help Me Out
Gonna Overclock GPU And CPU Moderately
His Other Components Are WD Clavier Black 1 TB, WD Clavier Green 3 GB, Samsung 840 Pro 256 GB SSD, LG DVD/CD Drive
Also How Much Can I OC That FX 6300 On That Board With Hyper 212 Evo, Consider I Live In A Moderately Hot Place Where Room Temperatures Spike Up To 40c And Maybe Above 40c In The Summer Lol
And I Dont Mind Going Above 85c On The CPU Temperature, And I Know That The 990 FX Series Boards Are The Best For Overclocking But They Are Out Of Budget
