Custom-building a computer can be quite rewarding, but building a computer on which you can play your favorite games is doubly rewarding! You get to customize all of the specs you want, so that your computer performs at the highest possible level. And you get to really test the limits of a machine that you built. Here is some advice on how to build a gaming computer.
Factors To Consider
When building your own gaming computer, the main factor you need to consider is frame rates. Building a gaming computer involves a lot of parts but it does not have to cost a lot. You can construct yourself a great system that runs video and computer games with phenomenal clarity.
The biggest trade-off you face when you build a gaming computer is between graphics and performance. You can deal with this problem by choosing whichever you need for the games you play. If you play fast-paced games, you should choose performance. If you need quality visuals, choose graphics.
Below is a list of the parts you can use to build a gaming computer that is balanced between both performance and graphics:
– CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K
– Graphics Card: XFX Radeon HD 6870
– Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z68MA-D2H 8GB
– Memory kit
– HDD Storage: Samsung SH-B123L BD-ROM
– Optical Drive combo
– Case: Coolermaster HAF 912
– PSU: corsair builder series CX600 600W
– Operating System: Windows 7 Home premium
– Power Supply
Assemble these parts in the same way you would put together a regular computer. Use as much space as you need and do not clutter the device. You should remember that the mounting posts on the motherboard need to be installed in the microATX mount posts instead of in the full size holes.
