2010 Christmas Budget Gaming PC Under $1000 By The Tech Source

[basbas63]

since when.. is 1000 budget? :P

[RaZorFakkzor]

@xX31173Xx

dumb bitch or dumb shit?

[mariovukijo]

bad gaming rig i7 core is good it has 4cores but viseble cores are 8 soo i7 owns and turbo boost pfff

[happa54]

Amd phenom X4 boxed fan= noisy. notice that, but still a fast/good performer Cpu. And i wouldn't recomend the psu. Check out the OCZ ZS SERIES 550/650/750 Watt's! almost the same "price range". :)

[stanistheman12]

@sorooshusa 1st of all you just mad cause you got owned 2nd of all i dont own any consoles 3rd of all my pc is 20times better than yours with amd 7970s crossfire core i7 2600k 4th of all just emo fag ao gtfo you got told oh btw your a mistake your mum told me you fagget go play with your 1cm dik oh btw im blocking you now so you cant reply so i win you lose as ussual you emo fag

[stanistheman12]

@srooshusa look at the date before you comment doosh

[sorooshusa]

@stanistheman12

and you get phucked and learn to read all comments and know what the phuck you're talking about. how about you go play your shitty xbox. wtf r u doing here among PC gamers anyway?

[sorooshusa]

I'm sorry but the truth is, this build sucks. you either dont know the difference between ATI+AMD build from nVidia+intel build, or you just wanna save money in very wrong places and I believe audience should know the truth before spending money on this build.

[TheTechSource1]

@sorooshusa you know this video is almost 2 years old now. At the time this used the best price to performance parts but the guy who i build this for wanted a nice case

[sorooshusa]

@TheTechSource1 Yeah I understand that, I'm just saying for other people who want to have a budget build now, they should know to spend the money where it matters. heres an idea: any dual core intel CPU + 2 GB DDR3 RAM + nVidia 8800GT = play all games of today at semi-high resolution and graphic settings. or if u have more money to spend, then get better stuff, but this is the minimum for high end gaming. will cost u about $150 more or less all together.

[SATANECRONOMICUS]

@sorooshusa The budget build you are promoting will be on the fringe of the acceptable in terms of minimum system requirements. Try getting a low end quad-core, 4 gb DDR3 ram, and a GTX 260 or HD 4870. THAT will last you a few years for minimum requirements. Avg. cost of $300-$400. Better than next gen consoles by both performance and cost.

[robiniroven]

@sorooshusa there is no ati anymore and you probably dont know shit and you have probably never built a computer and you probably got a shitty one right now and you probably wouldnt notice lag even if it killed your family cause you are so used to it

[DeadlyMountainPro]

I built mine for around $500 and I can max out about any game (If I turn off anti Alising)

[stanistheman12]

@trashypickels So can i? lmao

[trashypickles]

i can build a core i5 2500k system with a 570 graphics card for under 1,000 XD

[trashypickles]

when i price match computer parts and save $200 and its under 1,000 i get weirdish and try again with newer parts and it keeps hapenning

[justskate2292]

weird, just sold my macbook pro to build a gaming rig... best choice ive made in a while lol

[swagbucks10k]

That motherboard sucks!

[swagbucks10k]

You had 1000$ budget and you only put a qaud core in there!

[xX31173Xx]

@RaZorFakkzor you do know most the new i7's are quad cores right?

[RaZorFakkzor]

@xX31173Xx

yep. But i still prefer i7

[xX31173Xx]

@RaZorFakkzor You're joking right? or you just have no clue on what a processor is/does.

[RaZorFakkzor]

@xX31173Xx

go to sleep kid its late..

[xX31173Xx]

@RaZorFakkzor You preffer i7, which comes in quad or dual core. , moron.

[RaZorFakkzor]

@xX31173Xx

no shit? i said id rather get intel i7 3.3GHz than Quad Core 3.3. u get it now?

[xX31173Xx]

@RaZorFakkzor Lol, you are stupid, do you not know what a core is? and a Quad core 3.3 is the same as a 3.3GHZ , quad core 3.3 = Quad core 3.3Ghz, .... either you are retarded or you arent putting as much info you are trying to say.

[RaZorFakkzor]

@xX31173Xx

whats core? quad=4 kills with 1 bullet?

[xX31173Xx]

@RaZorFakkzor you're dumb.

[yourboyjayjay]

um some gaming pc's are about $1000 so whats the point of all this trouble?

[kvmairforce]

$1000 is a budget PC? I think I'm living in the wrong dimension. I think budget is $500 or less.

[haxernova]

my i5 1st version 6gb ram and two 500g harddrives with a nviddia cuda and got rated 5.9 what the fuck

[One4TheTechnoGuy]

I like your videos, but you need to wash and do your hair better.

[Fsxace999]

Well this looks like a real nice setup and I hope to make my own. But if noone here minds I want to know before buying all the stuff what kind of performance I can expect from this:

Asus 6770 with direct CU. 8 gb ddr3 1600 Gskill ram. i5 2400 qaud core. Msi Military class P67 B43. CoolerMaster Storm Scout Case. 600watt CoolerMaster powersupply. CoolerMaster Hyper 212+ CPU heatsink. Im looking at about 600 bucks left to spend now that I have the gpu and psu already.

[xAT4]

560 or 6870?

[cacamonster91st]

@xAT4 Really is no right or wrong, for example its like comparing Toyota and Honda, 2 at the top of there game, its ur choice, 6870 has slight edge in performance so its really what ur looking for. If Me 560 Ti lol little more but watever.

[TheParallex]

torrent vantage?

[Radioactivnezz]

since when was 1000$ a budget pc?

[ZippoCinema]

@Radioactivnezz it is for a gaming ones the really powerful ones can be atleast 1500 mine was a budget one and is 940 bucks without the monitor and the mouse and keyboard in all mine is 1200

[Eldeeff]

@Radioactivnezz You forgot the keyword in this system. Gaming.

[Ryd3r22]

@Radioactivnezz thats with taxes and all.

[zZNinjaAssassinZz]

@Radioactivnezz lol true :D

[robthatguyx]

will a amd 8150 16gigs of dualchannel corsair vengence and crossfired 2x radeon hd 6950 run crysis 2 maxxed at a good frame rate?

[MrIwesseli]

@robthatguyx yes but consider a better processor

[xxAL297xx]

@robthatguyx yes almost like overkill, and that much ram is not neccisary only 6 - 12 max really... and that card is amazing any game on max easily, just change proccesor to a intel because amd tend to freeze up every hour for about 2 - 3 seconds, intel you wont get that maybe a i5 2500k or i7 should do fine :D

[robthatguyx]

@xxAL297xx im set on 16 gigs of vengance 2 6970s or 1 7970 asus maximux z68 extreme i7 2600k inside a half x with a 212 evo and extra fan

[xxAL297xx]

@robthatguyx ummm.... just wondering what are you going to be playing with all that... no game or app really in the world will require that much power. Its up to you, but just seems to be a giant waste of money if you ask me :/

[robthatguyx]

@xxAL297xx bragging rights and if i get that now ill be set for four 5 years of games all maxxed when everyone else will need to upgrade

[xxAL297xx]

@robthatguyx then be my guest and waste precious money on things that could actually be usefull in life. Well then i guess have fun with that giant metal box :D

[robthatguyx]

lool if it really matters that much ive been thinking of dropping the psu from 1200 to 850 and from 16gbs to 8 so i can buy a new headset

[xxAL297xx]

@robthatguyx 1200psu... 800 is enough and 8gb is enough, perfect i say... just dont go overboard on a headset.

[robthatguyx]

@xxAL297xx 130 for the headphones 30 for the mic and im using my turtlebeach dx11 dss so i can have 7.1

[xxAL297xx]

@robthatguyx sounds about right you should go with that i have the turtlebeach x12 about 70$ headset thats what i use for gaming and there wonderful :)

[ItalyNerf]

Lol i got a 700$ pc and i get 100 fps average on crysis at 1080p on max settings and 8x AA

[jbx907]

cool, the window score is good, yah hdd bottlenecks, have a core i7 920 x58 1600corsair and only have 5.9 memory score really nuts, what memory should i need!

[vWaLLBangz]

@jbx907 get a SSD bro...

[jbx907]

@vWaLLBangz i have an intel x25m ssd

[DWcriticism]

Budget video's are the best...

[vorrap]

5.8 for my laptop :p

[krich106]

You are ugly. But you turn me on hahah

Then 1k is not very budget. I would have said yes, if it included a monitor. But you do include the operating system. Most dont.

Should have gotten an older GPU. Instead of a more current budget card.

[Ginounknown]

1k$ is not a budget rig, i have a gaming rig for 500$ including dual dual monitor

[Vince62965]

I managed to get 8 gb DDR3 9.9.9.7.1 2 GTX 560's and the same processor you have for my setup this also includes a case + fans etc for £650 I have a Corsair HX1000 PSU which I bought second hand for about £100

[kenvincent14]

What monitor can fit these???

[Dreceon]

Im not very good at computers, etc; but will this run for ex. call of duty mw2 with 60fps on highest settings?? Nvidia GTX570 1280MB 1000 GB SataIII 12GB DDR3 ASUS SABERTOOTH X58 Intel Core i7 950 3,06 Ghz I can also choose Nvdia GTX580 1536MB [+ € 162,00] AMD Radeon 6990 4GB [+ € 422,00] Nvidia GTX 590 3GB [+ € 462,00] Which one will run cod 40+ fps on highest settings? I dont want to give out to much money. Thanks.

[TheTechSource1]

@Dreceon Thats over kill for mW2 you can play cod on shitty computer because the graphics suck in that game

[1972paintballbeast]

@TheTechSource1 dude can u find good upgrade parts for my pc im like into gamming liek not to high otr low id play liek mw2 l4d css and i need some parts for around 400 bucks i have a athlon x2 processor 4400+ pny verto 210 video card and can u find me some upgrade parts?

[random1337default]

@TheTechSource1 So true and the same goes for MW3 :P

[FireHeop]

@TheTechSource1 yes and that mouse and keyboard isn't an overkill. you decided to get a radeon 6850 when you coulda gotten a 6950 or a even better motherboard, good budget and logic.

[j0rss]

@Dreceon With GTX570 MW2 will run 100+fps all time maxed out for sure. Even BF3 will run great.

[ZwingsTV]

@Dreceon Wow! You can play battlefield 3 on high/ultra on that computer!

[bolter99]

@Dreceon I play Battlefield 3 maxed out display settings on a nVidia 1GB GTX560, 8GB Ram and a Phenom II X6 T1100. So, all of that will run Mw2 anyday.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Pitiful liar, GTX560 (Non Ti) can run BF3 @ 1920x1080 Medium/High and AA 1x/AA Medium, not maxed out. Or well, if you enjoy 5-15 FPS then it's "maxing out"

[bolter99]

@ssanei When this is done processing... watch this /watch?v=p0ieC7vA3pk

Now sit the fuck down.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 1680x1050? That's not maxing out. 1920x1080 is. Also, maxing out also means +45 FPS avg, you're probably getting ~15. Also, your video's description is pretty pathetic so I'm guessing you're 12?

[bolter99]

@ssanei Haha... guess all you want. Seems your so "good" at it. 15FPS... u can see thats not 15 fps you freak.

Its the max on this 22" tv ... its maxed for my setup. The screen would hardly make a diffrence. Ive just prooven you wrong. Unlucky cunt features ;)

[bolter99]

@ssanei tell you what... il re-do it in HD - 1080p WITH the FPS on display. Then, you can GTFO and get some friends.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Umad? 12 yo

[bolter99]

@ssanei Umad, how original lol. ;) Get some of your own material then come back.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Umad?

[bolter99]

@ssanei Haha... change the record. Now, get off your shitbox and go outside ;) Learn how to talk to people.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Umad?

[bolter99]

@ssanei /watch?v=vagkcfaXYLA Happy now bitch tits? 1080p.

The video is 480p but, the game was 1080 as shown in the settings.

Do your research before you go mouthing off ;)

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Umad cause of low system? Umad? Umad.

[bolter99]

@ssanei What, that doesnt even make sense lol. Nawh. Umad coz u got owned bitch?

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Owned? I'm still running 2x faster system than you :roll:

[bolter99]

@ssanei All the gear no idea then i guess!

Its not even 2x lol. That 590 is all your system has going for it lol.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 I have a GTX580 3GB @ 972MHz. A stock GTX580 is already 37% faster than your GTX560, so my GPU is rougly 55% faster than yours. Also, 2600K@5GHz. Come back when you can get to half of my speed.

[bolter99]

@ssanei How about instead of blowing all your money on your computer and get out once in a while. Go have a drink with Friends. Enjoy your life.

Btw... ur full of shit, on your channel it says you have a 590. Make up your mind.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 My channel has never said 590, it has always been 580, or havent you heard of the 3GB version and you're assuming I mean the 590? Idjit. Go to see an eye specialist & buy glasses, blind fag.

[bolter99]

@ssanei Haha you changed it. Why lie. Wtf is Idjit lol.

How about you go back to school, or even go to begin with. Haha somones getting mad now ... "fag" hahaha I can do this all day ;)

[ssanei]

@bolter99 I'm not a pathetic inet hero like you, didnt change a thing. Google idjit, idjit. I already graduated as an IT-engineer so I'm fine.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Umad? Umad.

[bolter99]

@ssanei Haha that all u got? U sad...

[superclaw900]

@ssanei lol i have a 2 5970's in crossfire

[ssanei]

@superclaw900 And why did you think I would care?

[superclaw900]

@ssanei showing old tech can still beat new tech

[ssanei]

@superclaw900 7970CF beats your 5970CF anywhere & anytime.

[superclaw900]

@ssanei lol no 5970 is just slightly faster than the 7970 and if you think about it, its 4 gpu's against 2

[ssanei]

@superclaw900 Wrong. A stock 7970 ~5% faster than a stock 5970, also 7970 overclocks muchmuch better and scales soo much better in CF. Also, has none CF problems, unlike 5970CF has huge problems. 7970CF > 5970CF > 7970 > 5970.

[TriviumDFTS]

@superclaw900 Lol dude my 6950 shits on a 5970 therefor a 7970 shits on a 5970 because a 7970 shits on the 6990 the gtx 580 and 590

[superclaw900]

@TriviumDFTS lol are you dumb? a 5970 is a slightly clocked down 5870 in crossfire on one board, which quite frankly shits on your 6950

[ssanei]

@bolter99 2nd GTX580 in a week.

[ssanei]

@bolter99 Oh well, your name says it all. You're just a 13 yo kid. You're probably running it on 1024x768 @ Ultras and thinking it's maxing out.

[bolter99]

@ssanei So pathetic you had to comment twice? What has my name got to do with anything... Its my surname you fucking tool.

Its at its highest settings, if you like i will upload a video of the PC and the game running at FULL settings. Will that shut you up?! The Crosshair V allows for much higher performance than the shit box you wrote your comment to me on ;)

Look up the Asus Crosshair V Motherboard (especially the x16 V Formula) ;)

Buh Bye. Cunt features ;)

[masteircheef]

@Dreceon better quyestion can it run crysis? yes can it run battlefield 3? yes can it run mw3? heck yes xD

[jookur]

@Dreceon

Dude, the 570 and above paired with an i7 will run ANY games maxed out. That's overkill for cod :)

[ssanei]

@jookur You sure? Even HD7970 run's Metro2033 at 9-40FPS and doesnt do much better on Crysis.

[jookur]

@ssanei

Yeah, I meant to say most. Metro 2033, Crysis and Batman: Arkham City would be the games it'd have trouble keeping up with.

[GeneralSchultz]

G19 is too big i think especially for me i need only a Roccat Arvo biatches! razer is totally overpriced and ugly i also prefer roccat <3 6850 is yeah ok but 6930 is better only a lil bit bucks difference

[iPad1Addict]

Overclock the PISS out of it...

[atom608]

i get 5.5 for my sony vaio

it has a Intel core i3 with 3mb L3 cache

Ati mobility radeon HD 5470

6gb of DDR3

and 320gb not sure about if its Sata or ata but it got same rateing as urs

but my Gpu got a shity rating and way i can speed up my pc with more ram or somtihing and i benchmark in minecraft lol but its around min 50fps avg 72fps max 110fps so any way i can make it faster that will be great

[Blu0tuth0ninja]

Wait, does that include the keyboard abd mouse too?

[lewisner]

02.10 "Not Modular"? "Gasp"

[SrryCAPS]

But can it run minesweeper?

[DaKiLlEr46]

@SrryCAPS I think it would.

[Arnoud1987000]

When the time comes 8GB is enough............. well BETTER TAKE 4GB AND NOT THIS SLOW 6870!!!

[Arnoud1987000]

I would not recommend any laser mice!! optical is much better ! laser has X/Y problems and lift off problems!! ANY OF IT i had soo many laser mice its all shit

[mcjoin]

In 3 years is this System old bullshit ;)

[Hyzing]

why is this guys voice changing every second?

[jdahlenburg]

what do you think about this setup?

CPU: I7-2600

RAM: GSkill 2x4gb ddr3

HDD: 1tb Seagate

Power: 600w Corsair

Graphics card: XFX 6770

Optical: Basic CD/DVD burner

$979.11

[BerchBG]

@jdahlenburg Less ram better videocard like 685/70

[ApocalypticWeasel]

@jdahlenburg Agreed. You could go for a 6870, and get 4gb of ram. 8gb is unecessary for gaming.

[ht448]

@jdahlenburg JIZZ TACULOR

[jdahlenburg]

@ht448 really?



[ht448]

@jdahlenburg DUDE!!! the I7 was Wearth $1200 like 4 Months Ago i wish i had won with thouse Specs

[jdahlenburg]

@ht448 haha thanks! (:

[tehutuber]

its a realy good pc for 100.000$ at 9:52.i thik its a bit out of my buget of 1000£ LOL LOL LOL LOL

[tehutuber]

its a realy good pc for 100.000$ at 9:52.i thik its a bit out of my buget of 1000£ LOL LOL LOL LOL

[GameRocketBug]

But will it blend?

[Datareen]

i built a pc for exactly 517 dollars by buying my parts on ebay

amd phenom II x4 975

HAF 922

Ati radeon HD 5770

msi 770-g45

500 gb HDD

4gb 1333mhz RAM

[sardo97]

Can you do one of these for under $2,000 dollars including Monitor, keyboard, mouse ALL inclusive.

[experimental0000]

though I suppose if you just have the money, get a good case, overclocked i7 extreme 6 core, 24 gb of ram or better, ssd for the OS 3 TB hdd for programs/storage, quad crossfire/sli along with 1600watt psu and blue ray burner drive. maybe liquid cool everything. that'd work great actually.

[experimental0000]

a pc doesn't have to be $3,000 to be a good one, though something for around $200 will definitely be. on a real budget $800-$1,000 is pretty decent, I had a really good shuttle gaming rig for $800 that was on par with the $1,000+ Alienware and Falcon PCs at the time (2000-2006 roughly when it was built)

[seantal007]

@CarolinaCountryGuy because windows score is shit it always shows different results :D with the same system i once had a score of 4.7 then 6.5 then 5.9 ... in my opinion the only thing counting are ingame fps .

[INY79]

latest drivers for 6850? i think thats a bit slower compared to other benchmarks

[MrWonnabee]

1000$ isn't a budget. many people can't afford this many much money.

200-700$ is budget. so make a budget pc for those money!

thumbs me up guys!

[AlienPrime173]

@MrWonnabee

$1000 is a very strict budget! My video cards cost $1000 after taxes alone!

[MrWonnabee]

@AlienPrime173 Thats not a strict budget. I can build a gaming PC, with Quad porcessor, from intel and HD 5850 for like, $600. so year, it should be a budget :D ( after taxes )

and that is in Denmark ( 50% more in price, than, for example The States? )

so you can problably get that kind of PC for around $400 with Win 7 in the USA.

[AlienPrime173]

@MrWonnabee a shit pc :) barely tho :) price it psu $40 mobo $70 case (shitty) $30 RAM (SHITTY) crucial 1066 9-9-9-24-2T $45 GPU: 5850 (shit) $200 HDD/DVD: $60 Fans: $40 CPU cooler: $30 THATS $470 before tax for absolute shit and a lot of no-name shit (case/psu) like retail plus shit. and that assuming you get a fucking torrented version in win 7 Look at my pc its a simple mid range pc and it fucking cost $4000 after taxes, windows etc.

[MrWonnabee]

@AlienPrime173 you forgot mail-in rebate? :D

lol, i also got a PC that cost me around $2000 dollar, GTX 275, i5 660 and 8 GB GeIL. so so expensive..

[AlienPrime173]

@MrWonnabee

so yeh :)

you know how expensive it can be :)

[illkillyoubitch]

@AlienPrime173 5850 isn't shit...

[AlienPrime173]

@illkillyoubitch

lol it aint the best fo sho

[jkriste]

Budget?

laughingwhores.jpg

[Zadius895]

Mine cost a little bit more but I like it. =]

AMD Phenom II X6 1090t

8GB Ripjaw DDR3 1600

Coolermaster HAF 922

HIS 2GB Radeon HD 6950

WD Caviar Green 1TB 64MB Cache

MSi 890GXM

(Insert random disc drive, not really important)

XION PowerReal 850W PSU

Rig itself is around $950, I took a lot of thought into it, and it ended up working out great.

[MrYoichiii]

dude do you need to wave your hands about like that ?? is it realy necessary lol

[WhiteSugarFive]

If only you guys created a budget PC when the GTX 560 is out. It's the same price as the 6870 and WHOLE shit load better.

[UnrealGlider]

@WhiteSugarFive Yeah, first card in years from nvidia that's actually a decent bang for the buck.

[dislikedsteak]

dear god 13% sales tax that is outrageous

[gauchero]

@dislikedsteak beats the 20% we get in the UK!

[Zorthaify]

I would have gone with a i3 540 over a X4 or preferably i5 2500K

[buckathor3]

Actually, you watch TV at 60fps. Unless you have a 120 or 240hz TV, that is. It is shot in 24fps, but not delivered like that. But nice video guys!

[TheTechSource1]

@buckathor3 Thanks for the good words man!

- Dave

[TobbenCod]

@TheTechSource1 Im glad that the pc i ordered is better than this, it makes me feel better. xDD

[thefifthlord1]

@buckathor3

Not true... a screen refresh rate has nothing to do with fps. Correlating them is foolish unless your trying to state an upper bound on the number of frames that actually make it to the screen and even then higher frames per second will seem smoother as they will seem more "realtime" than their lower fps counterparts.

[EyesOnMeStudios]

@buckathor3 its 60fps if you are in america (NTCS) and 50 in the UK (Pal)

[nilbud]

@buckathor3 Wrong. Next time try to make sense so you don't make a liar and a fool of yourself.

[octubre1987]

@buckathor3 I think he's talking about analog TV, which runs at 24-25 FPS at 50-60 Hz. The HD-era LCDs run at 60 FPS and a 60Hz.

[errorfisken]

but i dunt have facefuuuu... eeh book

[TheTechSource1]

@errorfisken you dont need account to view our facebook page

I could build better than this for $750....
