So I just bought an i3-8350k and Hyper 212 Evo, as I was recommended that CPU due to my budget, and especially after some research and videos testing it, and the cooler was suggested for that CPU as well.
Anyways, I'll get to the point. I've been searching through quite a few motherboards looking for something that will work reliably. I've never installed one before, and my current one is Micro-ATX.
Would anyone have some suggestions? I would LIKE it to be OCable, since I've heard that OCing for PS2 helps a lot. If that's wrong, do let me know.
Here are the current specs I have:
OS: Windows 10 Home 64bit
CPU: AMD A6-7400k Dual Core
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1050 2GB Windforce OC
Motherboard: MSI A68HM-E33 V2 Micro-ATX
RAM: DDR3 1600MHz 16GB (2x8GB)
If I need additional specs, let me know.
I still have a lot to learn about PC building, so if you have some tips for anything, let me know!
Remember, I bought an i3-8350k and a Hyper 212 Evo, so try to base the mobo around that.
Currently I have a budget of $130, but that will be more by next week or so, so maybe $200.
I also need to get DDR4 RAM, so if you have suggestions to fit the Mobo and RAM into the budget, please do! I don't mind 8GB, so long as it works.
Thank you much, and have a great day! ^-^
