I will just copy-paste the post I also submitted to tomshardware.co.uk. The original post can be seen from here. Basically I need help with building my new gaming PC. It will be for many other games besides RS, thats why I need the additional power.
Budget Range: Near 600€
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming and surfing
Parts Not Required: Keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor
Country: Inside EU
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
I am looking for a new computer build. Mainly gaming as you can see from the upper half of my post. I have already checked a bunch of reviews and I am going to use Intel i5 2500k processor and Nvidia GTX 460 videocard, unless you can suggest me something better. As for the memories, I would like to get atleast 8GB and as fast as my budget will allow.
I would like to know what motherboard, memories and PSU you guys here suggest me to use.
The budget is around 600€. When looking at ebay.co.uk, the processor would cost me roughtly 210€ and the video card is 170€.
That would leave me 220€ for:
Motherboard
Memories
PSU
HD
DVD Rom
Casing
(did I miss anything)?
I would like the build to be as cheap as possible so IF it is possible to not reach the budget mark(nice dream?), I would be very happy.
(As a little side question, how can I tell that a motherboard supports some processor?)
Thanks a lot for your help!
