Help me out, Sup Forums, I've been lurking for about two months, and I'm going to try building my own pc. Here's what I've got so far, tell me what I'm missing/ where I fucked up
I want a pc that can play World of Warcraft and other Blizzard games better than my laptop
Here's Blizzard's recommended specs for the new expansion if it helps
there's a stock cpu fan with intel cpu's, and it works damn well and you also don't need thermal paste because it has that pre applied. Smart choice on an H series motherboard but you don't need a gaming one. Just get one with the necessities. Anything that has 'gaming' on it is overpriced. (bullshit you're not telling me 1tb is only 46 dollars now my 300gb hard drive was like 150 fuck you and it was 5200rpm) I reccomend a quad core processor. To save on money, reduce your power supply to like 450 watts. I got a 700w and only need 450. Your CPU isn't going to carry your GPU by the way. If you want that kind of GPU you need a good cpu to go with it.
not OP but i figured this would be a good theard
could anyone please tell me if they see any issues with this build?
pcpartpicker.com
im not super experienced in this so any advice would be much appreciated
OP here, so I should drop the cooling fan? Should I keep it if I get a better CPU? I tried to follow the guide on Logical Increments
For budget PC's, I'd recommend going with AMD for CPU and GPU.
I'd recommend waiting for the RX 480. Will be worth the extra bit of money.
Don't get GTX 1070 Founders Edition.
It's more expensive, and worse.
Don't get an Nvidia® card.
They're more expensive, and worse.
Just kidding guys, the 1080 is unmatched.
If he had more ladders he would be able to climb. It kinda sounds like the current state of technology. "JUST THROW MORE LADDERS!"
Get an aftermarket 1070. One that has a good cooler. You'll get huge overclocks even from GPU boost you get 1950+MHz at low temps. Leaving manual OC room or keeping it silent.
Upgrade your power supply. Do NOT buy that one. Do not budget your power supply. Make sure you get at least a top tier PSU, Google the tier list and make sure you get tier 1 or 2, around 550w.
I'm not sure about that CPU cooler but skylake runs very well anyway, but that's up to your budget to decide
>i3
You could probably get away with the skull canyon nuc. Depends on what your laptop specs are.
>Just throw more pajeets at the problem
Don't need CPU cooler, get better PSU
You don't really need a better fan unless you're going to overclock. This also applies to better CPU's. You should really consider an i5 or smth.
My 8-year PC can handle WoW, and it's a cheap budget build. You'd have to seriously screw up a PC build that can't run WoW.
motherboard supports 8Gb of total ram, should i buy 4ssticks of 2Gb or 2 sticks of 4Gb in case i upgrade the motherboard to 16Gb one?
Hey Sup Forumsguys, I was wondering of this bulid has any issues
Already have the PSU (700 watt) and no optical drive using a USB flash drive to boot up windows 10 (newfag for Sup Forums
>tfw failed dramatically at building a pc
>"its just electronic legos user"
Fuck you
Don't mean to hijack your thread OP but, I've been trying to build a PC for a while and this is what I got
Not experienced in the slightest, was wondering if you guys can tell me how much I fucked up
>I've been lurking for about two months
>>Sup Forums is not your personal tech support team or your consumer review site
>buying Windows 10
How bad is it? Is it still as bad as Windows 8?
>"Never be enough"
>If he had enough ladders the pile would be big enough for him to climb over the wall, he could probably climb over now on top of that hill
>Fuck you
you fucked up 1/4 of your parts
Don't buy Windows 10
Pirate an OEM Windows 7 x64 Ultimate iso
Try out Libre Office before you buy Microsoft Office
>mini-ITX for ATX tower Mid-tower
If the only reason you're getting the Mini ITX board is for its built in Wifi Adapter
You're better off getting the MSI B150A and ordering an AC compatible WiFi adapter
and the motherboard only supports up to DDR4-2133
not the DDR4-2400 that you're getting, it will still work though
swap the Seagate drive for a WD Blue 2TB WD20EZRZ as the Seagate drive you choose has worse reviews than this WD drive
as for the cpu cooler get the Cooler Master Hyper 212, has the best deal
>pcpartpicker.com
2x4gb sticks to = 8gb. That will run best and give you upgrade headroom.
Your other option is to just buy 1x8gb stick and then another when you want 16gb.
Doesn't run as well as 2x4gb, around 10-15% worse, but the real difference noticed is miniscule; None of this shit really matters.
Looks good to me
Though you MIGHT want to order some Arctic Silver if your order doesn't come with any thermal paste
Nice, I'll check it out.
Thanks a bunch user.
Newegg has 960gb ssds for 200$ now user.
OP's image is a mixed message at best. The User threw a shit load of Ladder at their Wall problem and can now See over it. A single instance of Ladder would have been much wiser but still, they can See over.
Can someone give me some advice, here is my first build
>msi z97 pc mate 1150
>intel g3258 3.2 dual core
>16gb ddr3 hyperx 1866 tested
>212 evo
>1tb 7200rpm new dell enterprise hdd
>asus dvd drive
>cx430m
>r7 250 2gb gddr3
>nzxt source 210
I have everything assembled, except the GPU, which is still coming in the mail.
I also need to buy a PCI-E wifi card, or a usb dongle that is compatible with Linux
I have two questions, for anyone who will answer:
Was the 212 evo a waste of money? I realized that my case can't even close the side panel and now it has a scratch on it from those bronze things that stick out of the heatsink. I didn't even need an epic gayman heatsink did I?
Second, was it even worth it to build this? I realized I don't even like gaming as much anymore, I'm not sure what I'll do with this now.
R8 it, m8s
>this is the new Sup Forums
It's a good build if you've got the dosh to spend (which I assume you do)
Install a linux distro and start your journey into the tech world
WoW and MMORPGs in general are CPU heavy games
Get an i5/i7 and a worse GPU.
>will never be enough
that's not true though, if you have infinite resources then you can brute force everything, much like how if the guy in the picture could just keep stacking ladders and get over the wall in the end.
>Don't buy windows 10, use windows 7 instead :))))
>Libreoffice being anywhere close to as good as office
It's always funny when memekids like yourself think you know shit about computers just because other people force fed you their opinions.
H-here I go!
Really don't want to break 850 if I can help it. I spilled coffee on my laptop of 7 years so I'm now forced to build the computer I've always wanted.
Thanks Sup Forumsuys
a friend recommended I go with a SSD
