Hi guys, had this Built up for me and was wondering whether it's a decent rig? I'm on a tight budget and so I don't expect the greatest but hey, what do you think? Am I using my money to it's full potential and what kind of Games\framerates can I expect to get? Thanks -brad

Indeed, looks ok.

BrayWood · 28 Oct 2012 at 21:43

Do not link to competitors.

Sparx · 28 Oct 2012 at 21:54

I'd remove that link mate ASAP, you aren't allowed to link to competitors.

On a side-note; that rig isn't really that good! The graphics card is poor also.

Gav_881 · 28 Oct 2012 at 21:54

the only recommendation i could make with that budget is have a look for a clearance Z68/Z77 mobo, then you can upgrade the chip at a later date and overclock if you desire

Haha sorrys cheers mate I'm new to the forums. Do you mean the main rig I posted isn't good?

Sparx · 28 Oct 2012 at 22:01

No the rig in your original post is a decent budget rig. I meant the one you linked too from the competitor site was poor.

BrayWood · 28 Oct 2012 at 22:01

My main question is how well will this build perform and what fps is it capable of running on games?

stulid · 28 Oct 2012 at 22:01

Yeah, it's a turd, the one you have in the first post is so much better.
