I want to play 2 games mostly:

  • BF4
  • Minecraft

and record them. I live in UK and my budget is to not go over £600-£650.
I cannot afford to shell out 200+ at once (being student sucks).

Quote me so i can see that someone responded.

Alright thats not bad. But switch to a amd 8320 and a 970 mobo. Then go with a 280x graphics card and a 650w psu. No sound card or wireless. Ur motherboard has sound built in. The wireless works bad for games just run a long cord.

Alright I changed to AMD FX-8330 and MSI 970 GAMING Motherboard. Is that the one you said? I also changed graphics card and psu like you said. Ended up with £600.10 build and thats okay. My question is, how well will BF4 run on this fps-wise? I have it purchased game already and I want to record most of my gameplay.
