hey guys this is Austin it's time for a new version of one of my most popular PC builds say hello to the boson 3.0 well there are a lot of advantages in getting into PC gaming the price isn't had always one of them that's where this bill comes in for 350 dollars you're getting a computer that can match or exceed the level of console performance for about the same price inside this is a huge upgrade over the previous build we're going from a dual-core to a quad-core AMD athlon x4 860 K with a lot of games these days straight up requiring 4 cores the 8 60 K is still a solid performer being able to clock up to 4 gigahertz which is definitely not bad for a budget CPU when it comes to budget builds having a decent CPU is important not only to be able to play games today but also to give you a little bit of reassurance they'll still be able to play the latest and greatest in a few years paired with the gigabyte a 68 H motherboard you're getting a fairly basic set of tools to get the job done you've got all the expected things such as USB 3 as well as SATA 3 the real star of the show though is the XFX Radeon r7 360 graphics card when it comes to a bill that's less than $400 your choice of graphics card is especially important and with the r7 360 you're getting a lot of firepower that's roughly equivalent to what you'll find in the latest consoles based on AMD's latest GC and architecture and paired with 2 gigabytes of gddr5 memory this has some serious horsepower when it comes to grand theft auto 5 you're able to play at medium settings at 1080p with these and frame rates you'll have to bump things down to low at 1080p for the witcher 3 but it's still absolutely playable pick a slightly less demanding title like rocket league and you're able to play at 1080p on high settings and still get really respectable frame rates counter-strike go is also another game the boson 3.0 has no problem handling we're still able to play on high settings and the frame rates are no joke when you take a step back and compared to the previous generation boson the fire strike score tells the story this is over three times as powerful when it comes to graphics performance housing the build is the Rosewell r 363 case now it's fairly straightforward however it's totally fine for this build you've got plenty of room inside to work and it also comes with a bundled 400 watt power supply the boson 3.0 is also using a gigabytes of Crucial Ballistix memory now 82 bytes doesn't have to run basically any game out there right now however it's very easy for you to upgrade the 16 gigabytes a little bit later on if you feel like you need to upgrade for storage I thought a little bit outside the box and went with a 128 gigabyte a data SSD the an SSD are huge it speeds up almost all aspects of a computer however low bytes is not exactly a ton of room for games so for a little bit more you could upgrade to a larger SSD or you could also swap it out entirely and use a one terabyte Western Digital blue hard drive considering there's plenty of room inside the case for several other hard drives you can also just stick with the SSD and add extra hard drives as you need them and that's one of the best parts of building your own computer you can customize it however you want if you guys are curious I actually have a full tutorial showing you how to build a boson 3.0 and you guys can go check that out I also have links to all the parts I use in the description of this video hopefully you guys found this helpful I will catch you on the next one
