Configuring a high-performance system for gaming, graphics and media processing - video guide

Hello friends, this guide will set up a powerful video, it is the system that I'd buy it in this time, the system is not expensive considering the components used in performance and configuration.
We chose this configuration for a platform based AMD, AMD, Gigabyte motherboard with AMD chipset and AMD video card (ATI was).
I chose AMD Phenom II x4 965 as we benefit from a price performance extraordinary for such a performance to Intel must pay around 1000-1200 lei processor, while AMD's chosen us today does not cost any even 700 lei, namely 659 lei.
Gigabyte motherboard is built around an AMD chipset with support for USB and SATA 3 3, 3 SATA is a native integration into southbridge, no fireworks from the motherboard manufacturer Gigabyte, as Intel.
The video card is one of the latest generation AMD Radeon HD built using 6850 40 nm process on a plate quite cheap for its performance, Nvidia obtain such performance pay about 20% more.
Memory is a simple one, two modules each 2 GB each, explained in the tutorial is not recommended to buy kits, if you are going to do something overclock, you have to look after other memories, more drubbing.
At the store I chose an SSD Corsair F60 operating system and games, it is built on the controller Sand Force 1222, the flash is Intel 34 nm, this SSD has incredible performance 285 MB / s read and 275 MB / s for the storage of files I chose a 2 TB Seagate extremely advantageous (not recommend its use for operating system).
The source is from Fortron, it has an active PFC and efficiency over 85% for configuration, multi-GPU (CrossFire or SLI) or overclock, it is recommended to use a source more powerful with support for CrossFire or SLI, this time using such source (Fortron Epsilon 580) and are very satisfied.
The casing from Antec, a case that I use at this time, is an ultra-quiet hard drives are mounted on rails with pads silicone to avoid transmission of vibrations in the cabinet, a cabinet solid and well finished (attention with large graphics cards (Nvidia GTX 480 or 580), may not fit into the case, the board recommended above is ok.
DVD Writer is a regular one, I chose Samsung as we have not had problems lately with DVD Writer them products they are silent and burning disks without errors at high speeds.
I hope you enjoy this configuration, only vouch for performance where even keep the current configuration: CPU, motherboard, video card and SSD, if you change one of them the performance will suffer.
Spor shopping.

  • Well, 4000 RON is not much for what components you put there. Personally though, I have a Phenom II x2 550, an ATI HD5750, 4gb rami ddr2, an Asrock A780GMH motherboard (all the parts on my computer only reach half the performance of the parts featured in this tutorial) and yet I played most of the games at 1600x1200, and almost everything is in fur. Compared to my PC, this configuration is a monster that will make you laugh at any game at the moment, so 4000 RON for such a PC, would be worth, in my opinion all the money: D ... but at the moment there are "other" other priorities : P.

  • Hello Cristi.Am a processor queries you put a processor so powerful at W 140 you realize that warmth does she take cooler processor that I ptr's original guy like that can not handle it you believe in 60-70 degrees the 140W so I had one amd 7750 + to 2.7ghz to 95W a source 450W Chiftec efficiency greater than 80 W which is made by DELTA caare was burning source could not keep hold of it so if the 95 W keeping warm so hard, but bribes to 140W source 500W + MSI motherboard that which you put it consumes and that the break around the 100W-104W or mult.Eu I hd consuming 5770 104 W and now if I passed intel source jos.Deci stay very cold source AMD pass if I need a lot of money to put them to the processor and cooler have a housing multe.Eu GIGA-01B Miditower Chieftec DF-OP taken from EMAG and now stand and cooler intel before e8200 that Foxconn had a case where there had AMD at the Heat 95W well as no heat source that destroyed thousand

      Do not forget to mention a processor 45 nm, Proc of which you speak is built on 65 nm, these processors (45 nm) does not get hot so hard, perhaps your CPU has not been installed correctly, cooler stock successfully cope with as long as you do not overclock and have a good air flow in the housing (housing quality).
      A source because not heat the CPU frequency standard, the source is the most requested video card games and movies in HD.

      Aicea you're right because I was a neighbor of mine and so saying better pass socket 1156 those from Intel because the power source is cooler and also does not cost a lot and it seems that was right in a way that showed me and keeping warm like hell source neighbor so I say it is better on intel's socket LGA 1156; Well, because I saw on you tube as one made AMD Phenom test x2 with intel core duo 2 straw that was not taken with an Intel Core i3; to see if longer cope with modern processor that occurred this year or the last straw so vu intel core duo 2 normal for AMD Phenom makes dust but if it came with an Intel Core i do not think that he beat the hell out

        In this Video Guide I did not want to bring out a winner in the "war" between AMD and Intel, Intel has long been in first place in tests, this is not the idea, in the same class, at similar performance AMD is cheaper .
        If you want to brag to colleagues, you are free to pay 3000 lei per processor, I can not do that.
        The processor shown in the above article is very advantageous to his level of performance at this level increases rapidly up the price and performance increases very little.
        Be the brain!

        And another thing I have an Asus motherboard V-P7H55E who knows TECHNOLOGY SELECT THE INATLA performances were saving mode maximum current ie current consumption LOWER, LOWER which means that electricity bills is a little smaller and I feel That c-pocket

  • I was really shocked when I found out that most software and games can't support 6 cores, I really wanted to buy a 1090T myself! Thank you for the information and tutorial.

    • OmegaEven I was shocked Chindia I found that most software and games can not stand 6 cores, really wanted Sami buy a 1090T.! Thank you for information and tutorial.

      Before you spend money on something, find out, don't buy blindly or on the advice of "experts".

  • This PC is very good, but we Romanians don't have so much money to spend on a computer and in 2-3 years to be a standard PC .... but it's worth it because you play whatever game you want .....

  • This tutorial is very useful. But wouldn't a corsair or seasonal source be better? Or a little saving was made, so that the total amount is up to 4000Ron ...

  • Very interesting and useful tutorial in the same timp.In future can you do, if you like tutorials about buying a plasma or LCD TV and a console (xbox360), cameras, video camera etc.foarte nice tutorial cristi.iti well multumim.numai
