Setting Up Mid-Hi Gaming Desktop

[Devin]

Some people may enjoy customizing and decorating their computers which at the end of the day is a waste of money.
However when one is on a tight budget the last thing you should be considering is decorating the computer, it's there for a purpose not to sit as an ornament on your desk.

By all means, if you have the extra money to waste on something you don't need for the system to function then do that but only if you really want to waste the cash and you have the extra cash to spend on things like lights and other extra items.

Not all customizations are useless wastes of money. Some are functional, and some even replace existing parts within the system to help them function better. Take liquid cooling as an example. Temperature gauges too.

Did you just compare Liquid Cooling to LED lights? Yeah no crap some customizations are good but visual costumizations are a waste of money, some times make your computer look badass but still a waste of money, why waste it on LED lights, waste it on more RAM/ bigger SSD or even a better graphics card.

It's rather obvious that he refers to liquid cooling having LED lights instead of liquid cooling to LED lights.

Extra LED lights outside of fans/cooling systems overall are a waste of cash.

Still looking for answers.Btw which one is hetter? Gtx 780ti or amd 7990?.I know amdcosts 300$ more.

Some of them are cheaper or equal in price to the standard fans themselves. :P

GTX 780Ti if you can afford it.

I can afford amd 7990 too.But i have tested 7990 fps on bf4 and i only get fps around 80-130 while on gtx 780 ti i get 60-110 On ultra(every thing).

AMD is made for gaming, it has way faster graphics cards, but Nvidia is made for general PCs because it has really quick rendering and everything, I am an AMD fanboy and I can safely tell you to go with the 780ti, you get lower FPS because you are getting way more options, like PhysX which doesn't exsist on the AMD..

But amd 7990 has eye finity and crossfire teknology.Look gtx 690 is also of the samr price as amd 7990.

I highly doubt you will ever crossfire a 7990 let alone have enough power to run two in crossfire.
Sure the 7990 will out-perform the GTX 780 Ti but what do you expect when the GTX 780 Ti only has 3GB of memory whilst the 7990 has 6GB.

I hope you realise you will need a rather large power supply to support the 7990 too, the minimum power supply listed for a 7990 is a 750 Watt which has 2x 150 Watt 8-pin PCI Express power connectors.
With that being said, you still need to power the rest of the computer such as CPU and physical drives which will end up meaning you need a power supply in the range of 1000 watts or higher to be safe.

Think about crossfiring thar beast, now that would use a fuckton of power..

go with the 780Ti and not the 690, 780ti is currently the 2.nd best graphics card out there

As I read somewhere, BF4 is optimised for AMD GPUs, so expect higher FPS. Same goes for Nvidia too, some games are optimised for Nvidia.

But amd 7990 has eye finity and crossfire teknology.Look gtx 690 is also of the samr price as amd 7990.

The crossfire equivalent of Nvidia is SLI, you can always do that. I am sure Nvidia has something for eyefinity.

Look at this review - http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphics/62213-nvidia-geforce-gtx-780-ti-vs-amd-radeon-r9-290x-4k/

The GTX 780 Ti stands toe to toe with the R9 290X, almost beating it in full HD gaming, and even sometimes giving equivalent or better results in UHD gaming. So I am sure it performs better than the AMD 7990.

 The same graphic card war xD.Dunno why 7990 cists 300$ then.I just need single hard answer on this grafik war.

Lets talk about ram now.I have decided to put corsair 4x2
 Gb dual channel memory vengenace (2400mhz) which costs 124$.Is it good?

Which PSU do you guys prefer.I wamt a silent and a cool one around 100 to 115$.

ram perfect, don't listen to tards telling you that you need a lot of ram, you need fast ram, so 8gb of 2400 is better than 16gb of 1333.
the PSU is almost always silent, what you need to worry about is the CPU cooler, I got the crossair h100 and it's LOUD AS FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
so make a smart choice and get a good cpu cooler
