Hey there, I'm new to pc gaming and the forums in general, always being a console fanboy I've been tempted to the darkside, but most of you won't think that.
Anyway I want to build my own rig, but I don't want to spend ridiculous amounts. These are the 2 rigs I've been eyeing up.
1:
Intel Core i3-3220 3.30GHz (Ivybridge)
Gainward GeForce GTX 650Ti 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB SATA 6Gb/s 16MB Cache - OEM (ST500DM002) HDD
Cooler Master B Series 500w Power Supply
Corsair Value 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz Low Voltage Dual-Channel Kit
Xigmatek Asgard Midi Tower Windowed Case
Or rig 2:
1TB Hitachi Deskstar 0F13180 3.5" SATA-III Hard Drive - 7200RPM 32MB Cache
GIGABYTE GA-Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68 (REV B3) Socket 1155 DDR3 PCI-Express Motherboard
ARIAnet Titan Black Midi Tower Window Gaming
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 Overclocked NVIDIA Graphics Card -
4GB (2x2GB) Corsair Value Select 1333MHz CL9 DDR3 Dual/Quad Channel
650W Cooler Master GX 80PLUS Bronze Power Supply
Intel Core i3-3220 3.30GHz (Ivy Bridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor
I'm going to put a cd drive in from an old pc of mine,
My budget is around 400£
I'm looking at playing games like arma 2 bf3 skyrim and counter strike.
Look forward to your help,
