[RaNDi8]

Hi Ppl, able to recommend a CPU only with a tight budget of $500 only?? I feel like quite hard with this budget.

Mainly use for work like Microsoft office, surf net, play some fb game, however is it possible to play dota 2?? if cannot its OK.

Don't need keyboard, monitor, mouse, speaker and os.

C'mon, it's a budget build of $500. You will not need 8 gb of ram for that budget. Its not like that ur going to utilize anywhere more than 4gb for games that run well on a 7730 right? And unless you have a very important reason to use a dvd, ditch the ODD too.

Here.s a better part list.

CPU and Motherbard: ASUS H61M-A USB 3.0 + G1610 - $109

Ram: KINGSTON PC3-1600 DDR3 - $50

HDD: $0 free

GPU: ZOTAC GTX750TI 2GB O.C DDR5- $223

The Gtx 750ti will be a hell of a upgarde to the hd7730.

PSU: SILVER STONE 500W - $50

Case: NZXT SOURCE 210- $68

Total: $500

You should easily be able to bring the price down to around $480 at tradepac.

C'mon, don't think you need a GTX 750 Ti to play DotA 2? At least with 8GB RAM he can spam the browser tabs to his satisfaction. Build something around his needs.

I would go for 8gb ram instead over 4gb ram with no needs of 750ti to dota 2

Just saw his rig profile... If he is indeed going to resue that Plextor M5 Pro 128GB, a Core i3 upgrade will be essential. GPU upgrade really, isn't necessary at all...

Its unfortunate that G3220 doesnt support DDR3-1600 - or only at 1333 speed. The G3420 which costs only ard $8 more DOES support 1600 memory but no one at SL is stocking it atm although it is showing on video pro's price list!

You still can use the 1333mhz ram. But on the other hand you wont feel the difference from 1333mhz to 1600mhz.
