Just average stuff(main criteria was good qty with low price)
everything costed me ~$1000(~3100 PLN)
could handle almost every game made between 2011-2013 in maximal graphics settings on 1920x1080, I'm planning to upgrade it within 5 years if its performance gets worse

MOBO: MSI H61MA-E35 (LGA1155, SATA3, USB3, DDR3)
CPU: Intel Core i3-2100 LGA1155 (2x 3,1 GHz)
GPU: Vertex3D HD6870 1GB DDR5
RAM: Goodram DDR3 4GB 1333MHz CL9
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA3 (ST500DM002)
External HDD: ADATA SH14 750GB
XFX ProSeries 450W
Main Screen: Samsung T23B350 (23", 1920x1080)
Screen #2: Philips 196V3L (18,5", 1366x768)
Keyboard: a4tech Slim Sun
Mouse: OM210 - who needs razers when you have omega force? (Noticed this irony after beating FC3:bd)
Speakers: MT3325

is 450W enough to power it all? I'm worrying since I'm buying more and more new stuff

 

[J.Dre]

It may be sufficient for now, but you are right to worry about future upgrades. I recommend purchasing this power supply: Amazon.com: Corsair Enthusiast Series 650-Watt 80 Plus Bronze Certified Power Supply Compatible with Core i3, i5, i7 and platforms - TX650: Electronics.

 

[Zuma Master]

Can't, that's way too expensive in my region :/.
I'll just buy the pc the way it is for now, I'll think about upgrades later... thanks for the help though, much appreciated.

Well, ain't I a lucky bastard? Just found a part-time job that will net me a massive amount of $$$, so here's the new specs, do tell me if the PSU is still a problem:

GPU = "SAPPHIRE HD 7870 GHz EDITION 2GB GDDR5 Dual-X + Tomb Raider + Far Cry3 (Full Pack)"
Case = "Cooler Master K380 Mid Tower Desktop Case"
PSU = "Thermaltake Smart m850w PSU"
Screen = "Samsung SyncMaster S23B300B 23 inch LED LCD Monitor"
SSD = "Samsung 840 Series MZ-7TD120BW 2.5 inch 120GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)"
Cooling = "Cooler Master 120mm SickleFlow Fan (red)"x3
HDD = "Western Digital (WD) Caviar Green WD10EZRX 1TB 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s"
Mobo+RAM+CPU = "MSI Z77A-GD65 Motherboard + Intel® Core™ i7-3770K + Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 (2 x 4GB) 1866 CL9 Bundle"
Extra RAM = "CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1866 CL9 Dual Channel Memory Kit"

That's going to cost me about 1600$~ (in my own currency ofcourse)... Is that too much for such a system? Or?

Thinking to upgrade graphics card to 700 series, which just came out.

 

[J.Dre]

Nice card, atyll.

I'd upgrade if I had a 680. The 780 is equivalent to the Titan, at half the cost. I've got a 690 myself, so I probably won't go 780 SLi, but I may grab a 790 when it comes out in Q3 2013, which will be equivalent to, or better than dual 780's.

 

[atyll]

I just want to prepare myself for GTA 5 and other upcoming games for smoothest gaming that 790 will be probably at the price of my entire computer ;/

 

[Extrodus]

Dang, thats sweet though; no lags = all the more fun. I'm hoping to upgrade my computers graphics card + hard drive this summer seeing as my graphics card has become low grade over the past years and well, I store way to much stuff on my hard drives. Anyways I guess I'll post my specs.

Probably pushing 4 years ago. Other than the graphics card, which was replaced 2 years ago after a power failure and the old card getting damaged.

Monitors:
-22' Dell 2009W
-20' LG WTQ~

Motherboard:
ASUS M4A79XTD EVO Motherboard

Processor:
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Processor @ 3.20 GHz

NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT

Memory:
2x - 2GB DDR3 (Forget the exact names)
2x - 4GB DDR3 Corsair~
Total: 12GB

HDD:
500GB 7200RPM SeaGate Internal
500GB Sony External (USB)

Power Supply:
800w - Can't even remember what brand/make.

Case/Chassis:
Simple Sleek Black/Silver with front & side fan's equiped with blue and green led lights with a see-through glass side to display the lights.
(Really getting tired of it, even though it ain't to bad.)

Highest: 7.5 - Memory
Lowest: 5.9 - Primary hard disk

Summer Upgrades:
-Radeon HD 7850 Graphic Card (2GB DDR5, 4840 MHz Memory, 860 MHz Clock)

Hopefully I run into some extra cash and can give it even a better upgrade; but for now these are my specs and thoughts of what to upgrade to.

Cheers everyone!

[Plank]

mine are kind of sad.
Its an eMachines EL1360G.
It has decent graphics, and ram.
What kind of kills it is that it is a desktop with a 1.3Ghz notebook processor.
I could probably run more demanding games if it was not for the processor.
Looking into getting a Lenovo Ideacenter K430 FRYS.com�|�Lenovo
by September.

What I can run with no lag are: (don't have faps right now to check fps)
-Rome Total War> Huge Scale, high settings
-Medieval II: Total War> Large Scale, medium settings
-Mount & Blade (all except M&B3) at high settings
-CS:GO> medium settings with very little lag
-Payday the Heist> medium settings with little lag
-Tibia> no lag...

air mech 60 or higher

Its over kill for what i do but it will be worth it in a year or 2.

 

[Joepod]

Lovely build, I'm a huge fan of that RAM, how does the graphics card run? Do you get good performance from it and have you checked temps while running a game? I'm also confused as to why you don't have a SSD, grab yourself one asap.

 

[JoccE]

How does people live without SSD drives o.o?
