You're going to spend nearly 300-400$ alone on a GPU that can run most next gen games.

Ironic that he isn't meant to listen to us, but then you go on to immediately spew absolute shit. $300-$400 on a GPU? You're talking balls. RX 470 will be around $150, and will be perfectly fine for AAA titles at 1080p.

TTG-DDoS wrote DO NOT sink any money into a rig unless you have a stable job and can save up to purchase more parts.

Wrong. He has a PC. Upgrading isn't "sinking" money in to it. You don't need a stable job to have a PC, at all, that's a ludicrous claim.

TTG-DDoS wrote PROMISE you a 500$ rig is shit.
500$ Will get you a maxed out xbox 360 in a PC.
Meaning youd be able to max most 360 games (SSAO, Anti Aliasing all the way up, etc)

Talking shit again. Regardless, he's not building a $500 PC. He can easily get $450 for a GPU, case, and PSU upgrade which would be more than enough. He could get an RX 480 easily, which is VR capable, bit better than XB360. I could build a $300 rig right now that would out-perform an XB1 easily.

TTG-DDoS wrote Next gen, or newer games however.
The shaders and textures they use (Fallout 4 for example) will run you 300$ is for a GPU to run it on lowest, and that's only the GPU.

Again, absolute bullshit. A $100 GPU would run Fallout 4 at high settings.

PC gaming is an expensive an at times un-fulfilling hobby.
Hard to have the best when every week something new blows your old specs out of the water.

PC gaming isn't expensive at all. You spend what you can, and want to, and that's it. He doesn't need "the best" and there isn't something to beat it every week, that's not at all how it works. Even if it was, consoles would get out-dated as well, and then you need to buy a whole new console, instead of just upgrading a PC, which would be cheaper.

TTG-DDoS wrote He's 14.

Irrelevant. I built a PC when I was 12. Also, he has a PC anyway. All he needs is an upgrade, which he can easily do within his budget.

TTG-DDoS wrote He isn't going to be able to make 200-400$ to throw one thing at a time into his PC

If you actually read what OP is saying, you;d know that he does in fact have $200-$400, and he doesn't need to put that all in to one component. $400 is more than enough for a GPU, PSU, case, and a nice SSD.

TTG-DDoS wrote Should keep the box, when time comes, save up a little, spend 500 on a rig without selling your xbox, see how you like entry level gaming, and go on from there whether or not to sell your one to get more parts.

So PC gaming is too expensive, but now you're telling him to waste money? GG.

literally lol'ing at how hard this kids gonna get skull **** by your guyses advice.
Simple googling will par

Cheers, have fun building

Sanct has also given me my current build and it does everything I want it to with no problems

What was your budget?

You're all misunderstanding my POV regardless.

Not saying anybody couldn't throw together a good part list and set up,

I'm saying with 200$ he isn't going to get the quality of RIG he's hoping for.

TTG-DDoS wrote You're all misunderstanding my POV regardless.

Nope. You're just wrong.

TTG-DDoS wrote I'm saying with 200$ he isn't going to get the quality of RIG he's hoping for.

Again, as I said, his budget isn't $200. He can easily get $450. That's more than enough for a good GPU, nice new case and PSU, and a nice SSD. With his current CPU, that'll be a nice system, easily capable of running 1440p at high settings. Significantly better than any current console can perform. He does not need an entire rig, simply an upgrade.

Never wrong.

Build ya 360 boy

^your a funny guy. Btw im upping the budget to 570$

There's honestly no need. RX 480 would be a perfect fit. You could maybe get a nicer PSU but the Capstone is already a great unit. Maybe get a nicer case, like an Enthoo Pro or something. Get a nice 480/500GB SSD, Trion 150 is a good budget option. 850-EVO is a great SSD but a little more expensive. RX 480 will be GTX 970 performance but with 8GB VRAM for a lower price so you'll be able to max out 1080p ez and play 1440p comfortably.

You should have money left after this, just put it aside and add to it whenever you get money. Once you have a reasonable amount saved, you can upgrade to a nice new CPU, motherboard and DDR4 RAM.

What power supply do i need? The one u put on the pcpart picker is amazon but cost like 80?

You can do much more with a PC than you can with a Xbox...

Get it from Newegg. It's $65 there.
