Hello, I plan to build this rig, I have done a little bit of research on different parts and things but its all still new to me, so I would just like some advise on my planned build if thats okay? Thank you.
I'm intending it being a budget gaming machine, although nothing too strenuous, mainly league or legends or some mmo's. I first planned a build based on high end components and realised that I probably don't need a machine that powerful for what I want to do. So I looked at lower more budgeted parts instead. Here are the parts I'm pondering about:
CPU- AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor
Motherboard- Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard
RAM - Crucial 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
HDD- Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
GPU - Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB Video Card
Case - Xigmatek ASGARD PRO (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU - Corsair CX 600W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V Power Supply
CD/ DVD - Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (OEM) (64-bit)
(The PSU I think maybe i could get away with 500w?)
I'm just a bit unsure if it will all work together and if there are better alternatives that I could use, so I would appreciate any feedback anyone has, Thank you very much!
I forgot to mention : I plan on hooking this up to my HD TV if that would be possible, I've looked up about it and think I can via my GPU, through a HDMI cable ? Hmmm not too sure on this, I wasnt able to find a concrete answer. . Thank you.
