New Build

[Lod1996]

Hello everyone,
I am with my buddy here and we are trying to figure out a decent build for him. He hasn't got a specific budget however, he is not looking to spend way to much. He wants to get an i7 processor, 16GB of ram in order to run games smoothly and the rest of the specs we would like you to help us figure out.
"Case, cooler, power supply, graphics card, ssd, hhd etc."

Thanks

To Be honest you really don't "need" and i7 or 16gb ram to run games smoothly,

It's all in the GPU these days (in most games)

Really need a ballpark budget to go on as someones "way to much" is a heck of a lot different to others

An i5 unlocked chip is all you need really if you search you will see your looking at 2 - 3 fps difference between an i3 and an i7 in most games, that price difference could be the difference between a 1060 and a 1070 GPU which would money better spent.
