I'm a newbie when it comes to computer specs and builds and such so i had a friend of mine put together a pc build for me. I had a $500 budget but it went over a little, not too worried about it. But i just wanted to know if this is a good build? [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

I believe it's pretty decent, BUT you may want to add more ram if you're going to be playing games like DayZ exc.

just my look on it. Have fun building it!

I would highly recommend that you get rid of that cooler and grab another stick of ram and get a 7850 instead of that 750 ti which performs awful compared to the 7850, happy building.

I have had Minecraft crash and say there isn't enough memory with 8GB. I would get 8GB now because not only is it more, but duel channel is a lot faster.

4Gb is fine for the time being.

@terrabytez im sure minecraft does not use all the system ram anyway, well unless you allocate it.

Can easily get a build with 8GB RAM for that budget. All the parts are from Newegg and has a motherboard which you'd actually feel comfortable overclocking on.
