Hi guys and girls,
I would really appreciate some help. I always used to build my own computers and knew what was what. I've been out of the game for some years having purchased a laptop which is now on its last legs.
I'm happy I will know how to build the rig myself still but have no idea what's the best value components to put in. I've settled on the case which will be a bitfenix prodigy in black. Just love those cases but now need help with the internals. I won't need a monitor, keyboard or mouse but will need windows of some description.
The computer will be used as a home pc for my boys school work and Internet browsing but I want it to have some punch for light gaming. I will be playing world of warcraft and similar games. If it could play BF4 on high settings or medium settings smoothly then that would be superb.
Not fussed about whether it's amd or Intel, Nvidia or amd as long it's going to last a few years before need over hauling.
No budget as such but needs to be as budget minded as possible. Not fussed about ssd and water cooling. This really will be a home pc that will let daddy play a few games when he's home alone and handle them well.
I really have lost touch with components and what's good and what's not so if you good people could spec me up a build that would be awesome. Just think future proofing for games but on a budget hopefully you guys will spec me right.
