Hi guys it's been a while i've been to the gaming section, currently got a PS4 and PS3 but i rarely play them, however I was thinking we should create a thread for building PC Rigs, building PC parts for gaming, thinking of building a Desktop and getting affordale Nvidia GPUS (AMD GPU Sucks), my main purpose is to get an highend PC so i can play my favourtie Playstation 2 with Emulators, let's use this thread to share prices of motherboards,ram,GPUS and other parts.

Thanks

AMD GPUs don't suck, you're probably picking the wrong ones. I use an Nvidia GPU (GTX 970) But that may be on the expensive side for you especially since my PC is basically a powerhouse and I can run any game on full Ultra even the newest ones.
Below are the parts for my rig

Intel core i5 4460k 3.4ghz quad core
Nvidia GTX 970
8Gb of single Vengeance Ram clocked at 1666mhz (I can add another 8gb later when I want)
1tb hard disk.
650W power supply.

It's basically future proof for many years to come. So it's better value for money and you can use it for any thing. Even work.

Dude 970 your PC is a beast AMD has bad opengl drivers compared to Nividia I want it for emulation and gaming not really work related. GTX where did you get them what would it cost me to build a rig like yours and where to get the parts.

I plan to get the motherboard here then later get the GPU not sure where to get that yet might acout computer village

You can build a cheaper rig with nvidia gtx 950 or 960 or 950 ti. They shouldn't cost more than 70k with this dollar price increase. I bought the parts of PC over time and built it once I had gotten all the parts I needed. You should budget around 150k for a decent mid range rig.

Sher*i** my Nigga how far, so where did you get your GPU, am moving out end of the year, but it will be my project ending of this year stroke next year, really get the mother board first. I can manage with a GTX 960 i only want this system because i want to play my Playstation 2 games never finished Final Fantasy 11

I dey. I had to look at the profile picture first. Lol. I got it in computer village. I can hook you up with the guy when you're ready. The 1070 is not yet in his shop, so wait for the price to come down first...and the dollar exchange rate.
