I am wondering, what would I need to run BF4 Ultra settings 1080p? I am asking this because I'm looking into getting a custom gaming PC and want to be able to run ultra BF4 1080p with 30+ frames. Thank you.
Given driver updates and game updates since those... 1080 at 60fps average isn't going to be a problem even when cranking settings.
I'd set the game to one setting below where it runs good... so it doesn't hiccup ... Cranking the settings to the highests possible with some frame drops that cause some stutter... no thanks.
Game will look about as good as it gets on that setup and be able to hit 60fps 1080 no problem all day long even with high/ultra settings.
Opps my bad Woot know this stuff more then me. When I play pick a part its after mega homework on each part . When I got my new ram it was after reading for a week on ram 😕mileylol: Same thing on my MB and CPU 😕mileylol:
4460 CPU to save money... an unlocked one is wasting money in your case
Cheapest 8GB of RAM
SSD + WD Red 1TB
770 GTX
SeaSonic 650w (to save money... because it looks like the 750w+ are way to expensive... your prices are CRAZY over there.. a 650w seasonic is better than most brands 750w's I'd say, I google'd and made sure it wasn't a cheap chinese rebrand... it isn't it's high quality seasonic parts)
I went to the next page and it reset half of my choices so I just gave up...
I'm confused by the S12G 650w's pricing... why is it so cheap compared to the others? I don't know. It's a Gold rated SeaSonic... I guess because it's non-modular but still.
I don't know if you have a Newegg/Amazon/NCIX type online store or a brick and mortar store like MicroCenter... but those prices might be inflated because they are building it for you.
Putting computer parts together is easier than legos. You literally cannot put things in the wrong spots and theres millions of youtube vidoes showing you how.
I was originally going to buy seperate parts and put them together myself but I was worried that I would get incompatible parts and screw it up. For example I thought that I might buy a case that was too small for the GPU or buy a AMD mother board for a Intel CPU.
Small case building is only place it would get tricky. My last 3 builds have been in mini-ITX form factor... It can be difficult to work inside small cases and takes longer but even that isn't so bad.
I would strongly encourage you to purchase the parts seperate if it was myself. There are some barebones (usually includes mobo+case+power) that have decent quality parts but you pay a premium for a quality barebones just like you would through "custom" shops. A fancy one that comes to mind is the ASRock M8 designed by BMW group.
Watch youtube videos on cases in the form factor your building in (ATX, micro-ATX, Mini-ITX).
Socket type of CPU must match the Mobo.
Xenon 1230v3 here is $80 cheaper than a i7 4770; they are clones. Xenon lacks the iGPU (not used unless for streaming quicksync) and 100mhz (big whoop).. the Xenon would be a higher 'binned' chip inherently of the xenon name.
The Aniversery edition Pentium is overclockable... it's $70 here plus a $30 aftermarket air cooler... you can overclock it to about 4.7ghz and it won't break a sweat on temps. Only being a dual-core it hurts it... but it's the best Dual-core only processor you'll ever see. End of the line for Dual-Cores, G3258 Pentium. At that point though looking at an AMD with more cores for not to much more... it's something you have to consider... If you want to overclock ALOT and feel like a king.. the Anniversery Edition pentium is a wild ride... could always upgrade it later too... if you burn it in half it's so cheap who cares it was a wild ride :P
Everything will fit Socket 1150 from Intel that's modern/current.
*edit* The three new Devils Canyon chips G3258, 4690k, 4790k need a mobo that specific supports them, usually only z97 boards (i.e. some asus z87's), some others have support too needs to say it specifically.
You can put a mATX inside a regular size Case, it doesn't have to be a mATX. Since regular plain jane cases are general cheaper.
If the case doesn't have great cooling, you likely want a GPU that has a "Blower" fan versus one that has top-down fans. That hot air will get outside the case that way. In well cooled cases, the top-down fans can start to outperform a blower in both noise and temps, but for small cramped cases it would cause even more heat for a tiny cramped space.
Top-Down Fans example ------------ Blower

Watch Youtube videos // Reviews.
Suggest " LinusTechTips " or " Hardware Canucks"
Find a product Case / Mobo / CPU you can afford... watch a review on it by searching see if they talked about it.
Start by picking out the right Case for you I suppose. One that suits the price, style, features you want.
-Drop the DVD to save money. If you have another one or anything else like a laptop... just make ISO's or simply drag and copy the data off of the DVD into a folder. I rarely have to put a DVD in for games anymore.
-Drop processor down to i5 quad with no hyperthreading.
-650w is plenty for 770 with mild OC if made by SeaSonic or other high quality one; *edit* the case looks like it has good cable management places so a non-modular power supply would save money... with zipties you can make it look nice and hide it in a case that has the room.
-Get smaller HD
What I would add
-SSD
What I would change.
Either case or GPU style if they offer it. A blower style would suite that case better because it looks like it has a shield around the GPU and it gets it's air from the bottom (I assume there is a nice removeable filter on it of some sort). The blower would suck it in and blow it out versus a fan system like that one circulates the air inside the chamber.
The darn pictures were to small.. it doesn't have a chamber around the GPUs... looked like it did... I was picturing the case so much smaller... nevermind that point.
*edit*
You don't need the 4GB model 770. It isn't gaining you much if your gaming at 1080 for the forseeable future which most likely you will be right?
