Hello Ladies and Gents,
I'm looking to upgrade my older system to something more current so that I can play "PUBG". I currently get on CSGO right now but some friends are pulling me into this game. I can run PUBG but its on very low settings and its terrible. Since I already spent the $30 on the game, I might as well throw some HW at my desktop to ramp it up. All input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing.
Gaming primarily, pretty much storage for files after that
2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread
$500
3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from.
USA
5. IF YOU have a brand preference. That means, are you an Intel-Fanboy, AMD-Fanboy, ATI-Fanboy, nVidia-Fanboy, Seagate-Fanboy, WD-Fanboy, etc.
No brand preference
6. If YOU intend on using any of YOUR current parts, and if so, what those parts are.
Not sure if I will have to upgrade but here is the list of my current parts
CPU - AMD Athlon 2 x4 640
GPU – GeForce GTX 550 Ti
RAM - 16gb DDR3
Mobo – GB Tech GA-880GM-UD2H Socket M2
SSD - 500gb 850
7. IF YOU plan on overclocking or run the system at default speeds.
No
8. What resolution, not monitor size, will you be using?
1600x1050/1080
9. WHEN do you plan to build it?
Note that it is usually not cost or time effective to choose your build more than a month before you actually plan to be using it.
Right away
10. Do you need to purchase any software to go with the system, such as Windows or Blu Ray playback software?
No
