I have no issue going above or below my budget, obviously.

What are your guys thoughts on monitors?

e; As stated prior, I do want the ability to run cs;go and runescape simultaneously, so what would help that?


If you're in the yolo business, get 16gb ram.
I played runescape a bit last year, had some trash 1333 8gb ram and it wasnt enough. In your case i would go wirh 2133+ 8 gb or 16 gb 1600+.

Just my thought tho. Havent loaded runescape in a bit tho so idk if it's been better optimized or not.

Also, if u shut off comp when ur done using it toss in a ssd.

I would go 8320 with ssd, gtx 970, 16gb ram. Should fit 1k budget and the comp would last a long time provided u don't get into any crazy titles in the distant future (3-4 years+)

I understand.
Planning to order tomorrow probably / Friday latest.

I would like a 4gb gfx card instead of the 2 that secksiis put in.

you'll get arguments with the 16 gb being useless cause overkill, if you want just get that 8gb set from NCIXUS, you should be fine. like i said, my ram was trash ram, mushkin is great.

You'll be able to do just that with mine or secksii's build. You just need enough ram and processing power and both builds have that in spades.

Also, I'd just like to say you likely wont use 16gb on your system unless you have software problems. 8gb is fine and you will not see a performance benefit from 16gb is my bet.

You won't need that much Vram or a card that powerful, but if you want it and can afford it, then the 970 is probably the way to go, unless you can find a 4gb R9 290 for significantly cheaper.

if you have first hand experience on runescape that 8GB wasn't enough, then i'd say fuck what other people say lol. so 16GB RAM, with a 970 instead, with secksii's build and your golden OP. more vRAM will be helpful for the future. not really NEEDED right now, but games are using more of it as time goes on. as far as the ram speed, 1600MHz should be perfectly fine.
