Why dont you just buy more ram?

Im on a 6 yearold laptop. The only ups about it is that it sounds like dubstep :tongue2: when it runs.

ram does not increase the speed of a computer, you can make very good gaming computers now a days for 300$, il try to get you a link but if you want to serious, it wiill spike to 2000+ easyly

but your best choice is.... read my sig

$500 isn't going to be enough for a gaming build. Might wanna increase your budget to $700.

Not really gaming just to play rs maybe run like 3 bots.

Alright, I'll get started on your build after school.

I would recommend you to go for Intel actually. Intel i7 2600K , suited for gaming.

Use this.

Hyper-threading is useless. Plus it's too much for his budget. CPU isn't main factor for gaming.

 

[Sasuke_mybb_import19649]

It's not useless at all dude. Well, we can reduce to i5 2500K or i5 2500 if he doesn't OC. Also you can get Nvidia 560 Ti @ 1GB.
Sandy bridge CPU are all suited for gaming.

Not suited for his budget? You recommended a $160 HDD ._.

If you buy that for Runescape, your an idiot.

ram does not increase the speed of a computer, you can make very good gaming computers now a days for 300$, il try to get you a link but if you want to serious, it wiill spike to 2000+ easyly

but your best choice is.... read my sig

Macs are over prices pieces of shits.

I made that build before the floods. Because of floods, HDD prices went up.

 

[Eon]

Floodslolwut? And your saying they've risen from $160..
/facepalm
Shop around. There's loads of HD's for under $70.

They are good for general stuff though, just not great for use with resource intensive software/games.

Spending $300 on a computer imo is a waste, and spending $2000+ is just stupid. And RAM decreases the load and processing time for applications. So in a way, it does speed up your computer ._.

Learn to use common sense. Floods flooded there factory. There was shortage of HDD. So they risen price.

Hyperthreading is only useful if he was to be rendering. But I have to agree with i5 2500k. It's $100 cheaper than i7 2600k'/2700k.

i7 2700k is $350. -.-

 

[Sasuke_mybb_import19649]

It's better off getting a i5 2500K incase he wants to game more / game heavy games.

 

[Inxy]

But his budget is only $500, i5 2500k just pushes his budget too far.

 

[Mr.Anderson]

But since bots aren't running anymore, are you actually going to turn it into a gaming pc? 500 dollar budget wont get you a lot.
