Hello FP'ers! I will soon be building a computer for both gaming and some openGL programming. I have picked out a parts list with some advice from friends, but thought I should show it to you guys before I buy anything. Here it is:...

Open to suggestions, but I'd like to stay either on this price range, or below. I don't want to go above it.

This is what I've gotten so far: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/17mxp I'm trying to get it down to $800 and I'm seeing I could probably do that with the power supply, but I'm not as familiar with good quality PSUs under 600W. Any recommendations on how...

This is what I have so far: 3.50Ghz Intel Core i7-3770K Processor ASRock LGA 1155 Z77 Extreme 4 Corsair Vengence 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 Seagate Barracuda 500 GB 7200RPM SATA

I was thinking of upgrading my CPU/SSD and might buy an extra HDD, but I haven't looked at PC parts and what's good/bad in literally years so I'm gonna need some help/advice. 1. What CPU to get? I was looking at the i7 3770, but am open to...

I've got a budget of £650, which doesn't include any peripherals. I'm ordering primarily from Scan UK because of good past experiences, and their prices are pretty decent. Here's a list of all the components on Scan I'm trying to cut back prices where...

So I'm building a new PC, the last time I build one was ages ago and I didn't know that bottlenecks existed back then. I'm going to get either an AMD FX-8150 or an AMD FX-6300 (http://goo.gl/rnHBD and http://goo.gl/vL5NY). For my graphics cards I'd...

Hello again. I have just recently finished an open house and got about $900 to put into upgrading my current computer. I decided to try and go with two new monitors and a new video card. My current computer is a bit on the higher end, with an Intel Core...

Every time I've built a computer, it's been incredibly mid-range. I want to build a computer that's respectable when it comes to playing games. But I have no idea what kind of budget I would be going for, or what kind of processor I should get. I'm in...

Hey, so I have some kind of thing called palit gtx 560 (which I have no idea what it is, I assume it's something less powerful than nvidia gtx 560? ) I am not much into the models of cards nor I understand them, perhaps someone can explain? Mine is...

Hey, I'm in a need for a light to medium gaming build to play new and new-ish games on high settings at 1280x720 with a good fps. I can order from this site http://systemastore.fi The sidebar link called Komponentit will take you to the site where you...

http://i.imgur.com/O0Iwx6v.jpg Got a friend who is looking to build a gaming computer. It's been awhile since I did a build and I just wanted to run by someone to see if there could be improvements.

I have a GTX 650 at the moment. It's alright, but as new games are coming out with DX11 tesellation and so forth, it's struggling. So, I wanted to upgrade. I'm not getting a AMD card, as I've heard of some the nasty issues they have with games. I have...

Hey all, I'm going for my first (good) gaming computer, I've found this nice website www.computeralliance.com.au The pre-built computer I am looking to modify on this website is the Hex System, it has a really fucking beautiful processor. My current...

Hey everyone! I'm looking to build a gaming PC on a budget of $1000, but can go as high as $1100 (USD just in case anyone asks). This will be my first build and I was hoping to get some advice on what I came up with. So any suggestions are welcome and I...

Would that be possible? Would it be possible to improve upon the existing system specs, possibly staying in the range of 600 - 800€?

Yeah I know almost impossible. Anyways I'm gonna be giving him my old 4670, Cooler Master 400 watt PSU, and 4 GB Patriot RAM for $50 (included in build so really it is $300 build). He will be playing Gmod, World of Tanks, and nothing else too demanding....

Anyone have any suggestions for a graphics card to buy along with the NVidia Shield? My budget for everything is $650.

I'm just wondering if anything needs upgrading or not. I'm not amazing with computers so I kind of need opinions with this sort of shit.

Ok so I have a really bad old PC made in 2006, I don't really have much money at the moment so I want to upgrade it, this computer can barely run Garry's mod on 5 FPS. My question is, should I just build a new one or upgrade this one? If I do, should I...

I don't care if its a pre built or a parts list and i have a keyboard,monitor(tv),mouse,usb wireless internet stick thingy? (tell me if you know what those are called),HardDrive and an OS and i may be able to re use the graphics card. I'll do some gaming...

My GPU has been fucking up on me for a while now. I did all kind of trouble shooting, the one thing I haven't done is RMA it. If I do that I will be computerless. I have been planning to upgrade a few things. My current build: MoBo - GIGABYTE...

Looking to build a decent rig for gaming, not so much into it anymore, however, once winter rolls around, I become a recluse. On top of that, my laptop is a refurb, and it turning into complete shit, so it's about time I upgrade. So, this is what I...

So my computer is starting to slow down, and it can't run most of the new games on fairly good graphics without frame rate issues. I'm not super great at computer hardware, i was thinking of upgrading my graphics card. My specs: And I'm on a 750W...

Hi guys, I'm going to be building my first PC next month and I could use some pointers as to what hardware to get. I don't have too much experience other than helping a friend build his first PC a few months ago. My budget is around $800. I've been...

Hello, so I want to build a gaming PC for Gaming and Rendering (Probably with Sony Vegas) and the price needs to be around $1,100. The only things I would like to be in this build: -An intel CPU -Windows 7 -Would 16GB be sufficient for...

It's time to throw out my 7 year old computer and replace it with something newer (finally), so I've compiled a list of components that I would like to have in my new computer which will be used mostly for graphic design, video editing and some gaming on...

Well, Intel just released Haswell. I currently have: -i7-920 -6gb ram -750w PSU -GTX670 (soon to be 770) My question is, would it be worth jumping from Nehalem to Haswell? I've had this CPU for almost 5 years, so I feel it would be worth jumping on...

http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=23183806 #1 consideration is reliability, these are going to be running at 100% load near 24/7. #2 consideration is value, these will have to last a long time and will be under...

So I was considering buying an entirely new computer, but I think what i've got now is pretty upgradeable, but I'm not really very computer saavy at all and don't trust myself not to screw up something in terms of compatibility. Here are pretty much all...

Well, I'm long due for an upgrade. Since Haswell just recently released I'm thinking of building a PC based around it. I've got it parted out on Newegg right now but I could use some second opinions. Here's the link to the wishlist. Unfortunately the PSU...
