Please Help me Spec a new Build!

Desparanso · 27 Jun 2018 at 14:00

Hi Guys

I am a complete novice to actually spec and building my own computers, i've done it once with fantastic help from this forum and it was amazing!

I'm here again and any help would be fantastic!

My budget is currently £600-700 and my only real goal is to play on PubG.

Thank you in advance for any builds you come up with!

Anyways it will take me 3 months to get all of my pc hardware then i will be giving away a free intel 7600k processor and 32 gb of 2400mhz ddr4 ram.

If your still around let me know then i will give.

Dan.

I am upgrading to a 2700x you see so yeah.

But the 7600k is still a capable processor play's pubg fine on my system.

Will save you cash on ram and cpu can spend it more on the graphics card whichever.

The ram is Kingston Fury Black 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C15 2400MHz Dual Channel Kit (HX424C15FBK2/32) and it costed me £178.69 last year.

It now costs over 300 quid today :/.

Either way, should smash consoles !

lltfdaniel · 29 Jun 2018 at 12:58

A used 7600k should cost £50 why well the reason is a ryzen which is cheaper than 7600k smashes the 7600k in crysis 3.

Yeah if i were to sell my 7600k i would sell it for £50 due to performance cost ratio i.e. bang for buck.

I could sell my ram at a profit at £200 but then yeah.

Well i now have the processor which is a amd 2700x and this motherboard > https://www.overclockers.co.uk/giga...ocket-am4-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-56x-gi.html

So yea i am now waiting for the motherboard to come ;-)

and as have said it will take 3 months for me to get all the pc hardware parts to build you see.
