Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “IntelGamerDays – Gaming/Streaming PC Builds”.
Hey guys so Intel and coarser I’ve teamed up for this awesome event that they’re hosting called Intel gamer days. It’S a limited time, us exclusive event, featuring awesome deals and buying discounts, specifically targeted for hardcore and mainstream gamers. The event lasts from September 1st to the 16th. So be sure to check it out by visiting the link below they’re, also hosting a giveaway on the coarser, won gaming PC and find out how to enter stick around to the end, alright guys.
So in this article, I’m really focusing on two separate PC configurations. The first one is a low-end budget gaming PC under $ 700 and the other one’s gon na, be a high-end, really awesome, good-looking gaming and screaming PC with an all-white color scheme. In fact, some of the parts might be on sale for the Intel gamer day, so make sure you guys check that page before you purchase any parts once again, the link to that will be down below and before. I began to want to give you huge thanks to Intel and courser for sponsoring this video, so starting up with a beast budget build. This is gon na cost a little over $ 600 and it features the i3 8100 quad-core processor with 4 threads.
The CPU has quickly become very popular in budget, build because of its crazy performance and actually outperforms its competitor. The rise in 2200 G and the rise in three 1200 by a noticeable amount for just pure gaming horsepower around $ 100. The i3 8100 is my recommendation. Since we’re going Intel, we do need a compatible board and since the CPU is locked, there is no need to spend more for overclocking. The best value right now is from gigabyte in a stubby 360m board. It’S a micro, ATX board with four Ram slots and that to support it’s got six USBs, three of which are USB 3 and also three fan headers.
All in all, it’s a solid board for the money. The only downside is that B 360 boards only support up to 2666 rated RAM if you’re, using an i3 chip for Ram. However, I did pick up a 3000 megahertz weighted stick simply because it was only five dollars more than the 2666 might as well. Go with that.
Just in case, you end up upgrading your board later down the line, it’s only five dollars. In the meantime, your system will underclock the RAM really, but you wouldn’t run into any issues using this. The stock heatsink on the CPU is fine, I’ll get the job done so, instead of buying another cooler, we will actually use that money and put it towards something else. For example, on the storage, I do recommend at least one SSD in this build. So, to start things off, a 120 gigabyte SSD from coarser will provide the PC with a nice boost and speeds. I would personally throw in the operating system on here, along with any of the games.
You mostly play. I do recommend adding a one terabyte hard drive later down the line for mass storage and, of course, storing other useless files, either an included in this price tag, because an SSD is a really good place to start and also to keep the cost down for the Graphics card, I was actually lucky to find a gtx 1066 gigabyte founders Edition on Amazon for just $ 200. With this card, you can easily game over 60fps maxed out settings in 1080p.
I don’t know how many the person is selling. So if you guys are clicking on a link below and you see different price or if it’s so loud, then I’ll drop a link to the GTX 1050 P. I instead, which is around the same price, but around 200 bucks. You can still gain comfortably over 60fps with the 1050 Ti. However, you might have to lower the settings on some games depending on how demanding it is, if you really want to hit that 60 FPS mark the case, we’re going with is the coarser carbide spec? Oh five, which is a good-looking old black case with an acrylic side panel. It has one USB 3 port on top with a single 120 millimeter fan included. In the case, however, it does have space for additional two fans on the top and one more in the rear, so it can support up to total of five fans. I do recommend adding an additional 120 millimeter fan in the front for a better airflow, because I just feel like one isn’t enough in that entire case. Courser does sell an LED fan for around 10 dollars, but if you guys don’t care about colors, I want to save money.
You can actually pick up this 4-pack that cost around $ 15, which i think is a much better deal finishing up. The parts is the cxm 550 watt power supply, which is bronze certified and it’s my modular meaning. You can connect only the cables you need and keep the inside of your PC cleaner with less clutter. So that’s it for the first build, that’s the configuration I recommend for anyone looking to spend and $ 700 on a solid 1080p gaming PC over 60 FPS on most games, of course, obviously feel free to tweak the parts to your liking and taste.
So once again, the link to everything will be down below this. Next build is a balance between performance and aesthetics. My goal was to build a good-looking texture, style gaming and streaming PC for less than 3k starting off with the CPU. I was gon na go with the new 8086 Kay, but then I realized there isn’t a huge performance difference between both CPUs, especially since the 8700 K can be overclocked up to 5 begin hurts easily and it cost $ 100 less. So naturally I stuck with it.
It’S also gon na be great for screaming because of its six cores and twelve threads. It will even help out on the productivity side. Obviously we got ta cool the processor because we’re gon na overclock it and there’s no a IO that can do it better than the H 150.
I Pro from Corsair. This is a 360 millimetre radiator with 3 120 millimeter fans. Also, it’s RGB. The black tubing on these are nasty, so we’re gon na cover them up with the cable mod, any il sleeve kit for only $ 20. The motherboard was an easy choice. You can’t really go wrong with Asus boards, some of the best performance and reliability out there. So I went with the prime Z 370 because of its features price and the color scheme. It is 2018, so you got to have our GB RAM. The white vengeance pros from Corsair are the cleanest and personally, my favorite RAM sticks out there. In fact, I’m using 32 gigs of these. In my personal build for storage, we are keeping it simple, with a single 480 gigabyte, m2 SSD for the operating system and important programs, while the other 480 gigabyte SSD can be used for games and other files. Now the graphics card I wanted to go with is a unicorn, it’s very rare, to find a galaxy dition out there.
I don’t know if they’re out of business or they don’t make cars anymore, but I think it would look really awesome in this build with the old white shroud a 1070 T. I also get you over 100 FPS and quad HD gaming in most games, which is 2560 by 1440 P. If you’re gon na use high-end hardware like this, then you have to play in a higher resolution. It just feels like a waste playing only on 1080p. I’M also gon na toss an RGB back play on it, because why not might as well just RGB all the things inside here and you can actually customize the backplate do any design you want, but to keep things simple, I’m just gon na showcase, a blank white One the case you are using is the spec Omega RGB mid tower case, which will complement the build beautifully.
The strip in front of the case is RGB and the case itself comes with to RGB fans already installed. The side panel is tempered glass and I like that, it comes with a PSU cover as well. I’M gon na throw in a can of spray paint, because I would love to paint a few parts in that case white, just so there’s less black inside, for example, I would love to paint the motherboard tray, the PCI brackets PSU shroud and even part of the Radiator from the h1 50i cooler, I’m personally not a fan of the HD RGB fans that Corsair makes so I would actually replace those with the ll version. Instead, we’re gon na be putting three of them on the radiator on the h1 50i cooler, which is going to be mounted in the front of the case, and then three additional fans on the top and rear for optimal airflow. We’Re gon na need a hub to hook up all these RGB fans, so we’re gon na throw in a commander Pro to make things easy and also throw in a few RGB strips as well, so that the insides are lit powering the build. Is the HX 750 watt Platinum certified power supply that is fully modular, which means, ladies and gentlemen, we are obviously going with custom sleeved cables from cable mod. This is the design I’m going with on the cables with white aluminum, cable combs, that’s gon na be the icing on the cake. This entire build with the mods will cost around $ 2,600. So those are my two recommended configurations, as always make sure you guys check out Intel gamer days, because there might be some deals on the parts mentioned in this article and also that is where you’ll find more information on the coarser 1a gaming PC giveaway.
As mentioned before, all the parts you see in this article will be linked down below, as always. Thank you guys so much for watching, and I will see you in the next one. You .
