As the title says

the system mainly a gift for my brother

Only condition i am going for is an SSd for boot-up, HDD for main storage around(1-3 TB)

Bascially the system will be used for gaming (football manager, fps shooters)

I could go overboard the budget if the hardware suggested performance a huge leap.


Thanks in advance.

Basically i need some input regarding what should I used/ better parts that i should be looking at. I do not have the knowledge to OC so im not planning to OC in the mean time and I am unsure to get a crossfire motherboard as I sometimes ended up building a whole new rig.

CPU : core i5 4570
GPU : Sapphire Vapor R9 280X
RAM : G Skill Ripjaws or Corsair Vengence DDR3 1600
Motherboard : Still have thinking
HDD : Samsung Evo 120GB SSD & WD Black 1 TB HDD
OS : Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit
PSU : Looking for either a 550 watt or a 600 watt (some says it should be sufficient for the 280X)
Case: Need some input for a easy cleaning case


Thanks in advance.

This is what I heard that console uses older chipset but modified the chipset to meet demand/prices and to be able to handle games, newer gpu,cpu release about 1.5 yr interval which are better and might on par/surpass the capabilities of the console modded chipset.

Not sure whether this is the right place to ask about PS 3 issues.

So basically I bought a HDMI cable recently and use it on a 55'' SONY LCD TV and works perfectly fine and when I tried both given and HDMI cable on other TV's range from LCD to CRT my console did start up with a bluelight but doesnt load the start up screen (black)

Any ideas why is this happening?

I think I might try playing settlers first as I read somewhere people are saying that Civilization requires lot of time.

Does civilization run on a single world map which doesn't end till your dominant or destroyed? Or there's levels like heroes of might and magic?
