Hi guys,
I've been asked to make or buy a build for my son.
He's on a tight budget, somewhere around €500,- (max), and he would use the computer for his homework but also for gaming.
Only game that needs to run on a higher framerate is CSGO. Al the other games he plays, he doesn't mind to drop the graphics-selector a bit lower.
When I select some new stuff, I think that dad need's to pay some extra.
I could also ditch the GTX950 and go for a secondhand 970. Almost same pricing.
Or would I rather go with a more expensive older second hand system?
I think about a system sporting a I5 4670k, z87 Mobo, GTX 760 ...
These systems go for around 400 euro's. He wants to invest (over time) in a decent mouse and keyboard but also a 144hz capable monitor.
What do you guys recon?
thanks
