TechNutz: This guide will focus on building the best budget performance AMD gaming PC without killing your wallet. While Intel gets a lot of the spotlight these days, AMD has solid components that are budget friendly, and offer compelling performance. I have received quite a few requests lately regarding an AMD gaming PC build for $500-$600. You can get really decent performance with this kind of budget and I will update this post monthly so you get the best deal and best hardware combinations. You want a great AMD gaming PC … so let’s build one .
What is better Ryzen or Intel? Choosing a processor for a PC can be a daunting task, especially if you're new to computing.
The ThinkStation P360 Ultra is a tiny beast.
Everything in there is pretty decent, though I would've suggested just dropping an extra $30 and going with the FX-6300 which uses less power and overclocks much further than the PII 965, but the Phenom II is still great. Games of today aren't as CPU-bound as a lot of wannabe tech-experts make them out to be.
I built a Gaming PC before xmas, an AMD build, and im delighted with it.
I did a lot of reading up, i learned so much about AMD & Nvidia, CPUs & GPUs, RAM, the motherboard etc... in the space of a week and did very well choosing the right parts but one thing i overlooked and went cheap on that i regretted big time. The PSU(Power Supply Unit).
I assumed the higher the wattage the better, so i bought this cheap 750w PSU. It basically collapsed from doing the windows experience rating just as i had everything up and going.
I did my research and learned a lot regarding PSUs. I ended up getting an Antec 550w PSU thats doing a great job for me.
Interesting read considering how im saving up to build a rig come late july-mid august. Rome 2 here I come!
i really hope more and more people switch over to AMD pcs.
they really great when it comes to cost effectiveness and quality. 2 main things which are hard to over-look.
sure, it may not be the best of the best with whats in the market but you get more for the amount you pay.
