Hello I'm looking to pickup a Cheap higher-end gaming desktop, and my budget isnt too great.
What I'm thinking of at the moment spec wise is something like this, but I'm looking to know what kind of performance I could expect from it, and how long until it becomes horribly outdated, and where I could cut costs if possible.
Please let me know if there are any huge errors I'll need to fix specs wise.
Note: I will be running it with three 24" monitors
Note2: Will likely be overclocked for a 10% performance increase, give or take.
Note3: I require a decent PSU incase i decide to purchase a second graphics card in the future.
It will have:
Cooling:
- Corsair Hydro Series h55 liquid cooler for CPU
- Corsair Airflow Series quiet Edition
CPU:
- Intel Core i7-4770 3.4ghz Quad core
Motherboard: (Undecided)
- Gigabyte GA-Z87 HD3 socket 1150
RAM:
- 16GB (4x4) Corsair (I think) DDR3 1600mhz, not sure which exactly is in my desktop at the moment but they are near brand new, so wont be buying more.
Graphics card:
- I require an AMD (Long standing dislike for Nvidia Cards(Also I require 2 DVI-D and one Display Port(not Mini) slots to plug my monitors into)) card, but undecided between a 7950 3GB or a 7970 3GB
and for it's Power Supply, would 750W be enough? a Corsair CX-750M
It will all be cased in a corsair 300r
Thanks in advance.
