This is the current plan:

upload_2016-11-27_22-2-12.png


Price: 1292.00 EUR, win10home included (Yes, things are expensive over here...)

Most probably buying the system in the next week.

If anyone has any comments, I'd really appreciate them.

The point of this system is to reach BF1 recommended settings (which it does), to have a big box that i can actually upgrade as time progresses and, to have it quick.

Regarding the storage, if you can think of better combinations, here are the options (Can't go very much up with the budget, though)...

RAM(8 is definitely not enough, seriously)...

Q: Do you really have to pay that much for that?
A:Yeah.
Q:Why am I not ordering all the parts separately from various suppliers?
A:The shipping costs to this country are ridiculous, it is cheaper to buy from cutthroat salesmen that at least offer extensive warranties. I want to have a solid platform to start something neat from, now.
Q:How do you take screenshots like that?
A: http://getgreenshot.org/downloads/

So uh, yeah, please offer some criticism.

Lol and ouch. um, id really get a 1070 if you could. its a shame you cant just order parts and build your own PC :/

*EDIT* oh and if you ever want to do SLI plan for that now and buy a bigger power supply also there are some power supply that protect against brown power. So if your not going to use a UPS, you should probably get that. especially if you live in an apt.

Tart, my brother has the 1060 for battlefield 1 and says it runs like a dream. Mostly ultra and high settings.

Also props for using greenshot.

Greenshot is great. Still prefer snag it though.

dish out some money for an UPS......save your hardware/data. I have to have my Alarm clock plugged into mine as much as my building's power cuts in/out.

Also let me add that I have an MSI board, without issues. I will say, that while you are spending money it might be best to get a z170 board. Going to have some better features.
 
Got a better deal from my company (Playtech), as we have some ridiculously powerful machines for game development and we constantly need to build new ones, we have the supply channels open...

Intel i5 3570 (good enough, CPUs are thankfully not too expensive to improve on [confirmed by this vid:
)
/32GB ram
/700W PSU
/Win 10 Pro 64bit
/250 SSD Samsung 840 Pro
/2TB HDD 7200rpm
/Gigabyte GeForce® GTX 1080 WINDFORCE OC

All parts have all-inclusive warranty. The brands for ram, psu are most probably corsair

total : 1039

I will check out the UPS deals, too :)
 
I also have a 1060. Like Doc saus, runs like a dream
 
hnnnnngghhhh... The system is here, but I forgot to account for one tiny little thing - starting from GTX1080(which I got), Nvidia cut support for analog video ports and my budget for a new monitor does not really exist, heh.
 
damn, got a 1080 eh? love mine

Buy or barrow a convertor from analog to whatever is available on your card, it's a cheap option for the in between time to buy the new monitor.

only the 60hz ones are cheap, if hes trying to get more than that the converers cost about 100. But since its VGA its probably just 60hz
 
I have a display port to VGA but the shipping costs probably aren't worth it lol.

I also have a fuck ton of display port to DVI.
 
The monitor is the DELL S2716DG 2560x1440@144hz + Nvidia G-sync, btw. Got a neat deal, heh..... man am I broke now.
