About new budget rig

tank_slayer — Mon, 12 Jan 2015 21:25:23 +0800

Hi, im just done some research on my budget build around rm2000 which is consider to mini ITX form factor...
And i realised that actually not much different between core i3 and i5 in gaming, looks like an i3 also can easily handle most games currently
Becoz of my budget tight, so i consider to go with an i3 then i can top up abit at gpu..

So here's it:
Intel core i3-4150
Asrock B85M-ITX
Kingston 8gb ddr3 ram
WD Blue 1tb hard drive
Cooler Master Elite 110 Case
Fsp Hexa+ 450W power supply
Leadtek GTX750Ti 2GD5

How did you guys think? Is it really can handle most games smoothly? My favourite games is Crysis 3 and Battlefield 4
