PC building parts guide

Lets face it, if you want a gaming pc, you will either find the ones you don't like or overpriced.
In this guide we will guide you to building you dream PC.

Before we get started we need to understand what each pc parts do.

CPU: Also called central processing unit. It is the brain of a computer. You don't need a super high end cpu for gaming. A middle class cpu will be ideal. For editing and rendering you will need a pretty good cpu.

GPU: This is the most important piece required. It is responsible for the graphics. For gaming on max settings you need a pretty good gpu. 

PSU: Power Supply Unit. This it the most underrated part. People just put the cheap one in. Don't make that mistake. For Gaming you will need a good 500+ watts psu. preferably the one with 80+ rating.

Motherboard: This is not the most important part but you will need a compatable case and cpu, otherwise you PC wont boot, or might even explode. 

RAM: Random Access Memory, People think the need like 32gb ram for a gaming pc. Simple answer: No you don't. 8gb is more than enough.

HDD/SSD: This doesn't really matter to an average gamer but, if you want that ultra high speed, go with ssd's but mind you, they are 4 times more expensive than HDDs. If you are on a budget, I suggest you get an HDD.


Here are the parts I choose which will be ideal for a gamer who is on a budget but still wants high end pc.
