Could you give me a good CPU with motherboard please. I will +Rep.


A GTX 560 being maximum requirement for a super demanding game? Come on. Crank up the AA and textures and you'll see exactly what I mean. There are no good CPU's for such an outdated MOBO. I don't know you're budget or if you already have it or not, but an i3-2100 or even a 2500k + MSI Z77 G43 combo is what you want.

Also, thanks for pointing out the case. I completely looked it over. It can pose a major concern.


Would this be fine??

Haven't heard too much about Aerocool cases, and that's probably for a good reason.

Presumably cheap, flimsy metal and terrible overall. If you're wanting a case with LED's, a HAF 922 is a perfect choice and has 2 x 200mm CM fans which are great. If you want a more clean and sleek look, a Fractal R3 is a good choice. But again, focus more on performance rather than aesthetics.

Good specs besides from your cpu, (Its a peace of shit.) It may bottleneck on your gpu and it probably can't handle it, for your cpu u need something like an intel i52500.

why dont you go for this build [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] its got an amd unlocked quad core instead of the i3 dual core and its got a corsair psu which is much more reliable than CIT and less likely to blow up your pc.
