I dont think you will need a ssd bt you wany also can a msi gtx 760 i believe can run bf4 high 60fps or maybe ultra based on review or you can consider r9 280x

Msi b85m g43 + i5 - 4570 ~ $ 356
Kingston hyperX 2x4gb kit 1600mhz ~ $ 99
Hdd reuse
Plextor m5p extreme 128gb ~ $ 159
Gigabyte r9 280x 3gb ~ $ 445
Fractal design arc midi ~ $ 129

Total $1188 buy at tradepac. Diy.

Good for ultra settings.

Depends on what resolution we are playing leh.
If playing at 1080p, even 7950/280 can play at ultra without AA and HBAO at around 100fps. Mine is at 120fps oc-ed.at 1 Ghz

i'm playing at 1920x1080. u guys think getting a 280x n 290x will have any diff? of cause plan to play bf4 gta5 at max setting possible.

 

[jiaweiii]

I will advise waiting for 290

I think SSD is good for BF4, it significantly cuts down the loading time between rounds and you can roam around the map faster than the hdd user

Really ?! Lol i thought ssd just decrease boot up time

The basic idea is that files in the ssd loads faster. So it works for games etc.

Ohokkk . Bt it wont really make such a huge impact right? Correct me if im wrong still very new to this pc things

You load 10 secs. People HDD load 15secs. Thats like 5 secs go chiong to the nearest vehicle to mount and say goodbye to HDD players and say the vehicle is full.

You play d3. Go into waypoint, ssd in split secs, hdd probably a dead character.

 

[blackieshooter]

Lol royfrosty don't anyhow la pls. Loading time is faster but everyone starts after game for everyone is loaded meaning you have to wait for other players. Only advantage is joining a game that has started or playing some mmorpg games where u can load the maps faster.
