I'm looking to get into the PC gaming world and I need some help buying a gaming pc. I'm really wanting to play games like Dayz, The Forest, and things of that nature.

I have never built a computer and really have no desire to do so. Can anyone recommend somewhere that builds gaming pc's? I found a place on Ebay that builds them and they have great reviews, but I really have no idea what I would need.

I wouldn't personally buy any pc's from eBay, there's a guy i know at work who buy's pc's built from those guys on ebay and he has to buy a new one every 3 years and thinks that is normal.

If you don't want to take the time to put one together there are several options but they are all pretty expensive if you want a descent rig.

Building one is easier than you think! It really requires no special tools (got a Phillips screwdriver?) and no special or secret training.

Start here:  

















Watch all 3 vids.

My 12 year old son and I just built our first custom computer. HE did the majority of the build.

Itelluwhut though, it was a bit overkill but it solved my overheating and airflow issues in the interim until I was able to afford the new build. I had put it together in 2008 and other than an upgrade in 2010 to the then brand new gtx460 i had never had a problem with it. Airflow was its Achilles. It had a long run.

Feel like a grave robber bumping this thing... Oh well, here's my rig.

6800K in a Gigabyte X99 Designare, 64gb DDR4, 2x GTX 1080 in SLI

[Last Edit: Nulltime] [#43]
Asus Rampage IV Extreme Mobo
Intel 4930k running at 4.6 GHZ under water dedicated corsair unit
Corsair Vengeance DDR3 32 GB
Neutron GTX SSD 256 GB and a 1.5 TB WD Black
1 Titan Signature and a 480 GTX for Physix (this needs fixing lol)
3 Asus Rog Swift 2560 x 1440 screens
1300 Watt EVGA PSU

All of the above mounted to a kitted out Obutto R3volution Desk / Chair.

As you can see from the above I made a horrid mistake when I got the extra 2 screens in Nov.....

That Titan Signature is not going to run them (tried hubs they all don't work at all for some reason meh) so just been using the center screen as I already was.

As of the 28th...I have 2 1080ti FTW3 cards on Pre-order.....the 2 additional screens will finally WORK! lol.

Will relegate the old Titan to Physix since the 480 is the only water cooled card still will remove my external setup at that point back on air till water blocks come out for those and or I can affoard it again.

All of that is crammed into a chopped up Nvidia full tower case from 8 years ago lol.  (a DG-87 case is in my future....B-day in Aug hopefully!)

It is a very small case 13" x 6.5" x 9.5" known as a mini ITX build. The whole thing is about as small as a shoebox.

Edit: for scale

Watch all 3 vids.

My 12 year old son and I just built our first custom computer. HE did the majority of the build.

http://pcpartpicker.com is a fantastic site to choose parts and compare prices.

The hardest part about building a PC is cable management. Think that through first and everything else is easy

M5A99FX
8X5X AMD Processor (Don't know off the top of my head, eight cores though)
Corsair Water cooling (Love it. PC is dang near silent most of the time. I had to add a large, quiet fan to keep airflow moving.)
GTX960 Card
32Gigs o RAM
~256 PCIe NVMe SSD
Samsung SSD for shit that needs to be fast but not on the main SSD
1 TB Spinny drive
Windoze 7 Pro


I was wondering if it was worth upgrading the MOBO for NVMe/M.2 slots.

Also, can you recommend a wifi card? I'm not running a cable in an apartment.
