Rig recommendations!

[Aurynn]

Hi there,

Recently my old computer just died on me after 4 years of usage. so I'm looking to get a new computer for casual gaming/ watching movies/ general usage.

I mainly play single player games like borderlands, skyrim etc. Looking for something that would be able to handle games on a medium setting with smooth fps

I do not need the following items:
Monitor
KB/Mouse
HDD
OS
Disk Drive

My budget would be around $700-750, perhaps at most $800. It's a bit of a tight budget but I hope perhaps I could get something decent with it.

Thank you for your time and help in advance!

Thanks so much for your help! Just a couple of questions though.

If I have an old i7-870 on a h57 chipset mobo, would it be possible for me to use that and install the RAM/GPU that you recommended for me? Will it be as to work/ suffer peformance issues?

Thanks once again!

Might be able to reuse it

Alright thanks so much! I'll give it a shot. Lastly, do you think my current PSU of 500w will be able to handle the new GPU?

Should not be a problem, but it will be better to get a new psu since ur old one aready use for a few years
