it's finally time to build the Aussies down under a $750 gaming PC for April 2015 the one thing I will say is that I got a lot of requests for 900 - around about $1,000 for a gaming PC and for some reason when I looked at all the parts everything was off I mean the difference between an i3 and an i-5 was an extra hundred dollars and the i3 is clocked higher than the i5 then the graphics card is between an r9 280 in the GTX 970 is over $200 so we had to factor in a lot of those things and so I'm gonna say you either go with this or you go with something like around $1,200 but that being said let's get on with this but today's bill will be a great build for 1080p gaming with new games like GTA 5 and Far Cry 4 you should be able to play those games at high settings no problems another thing to remember as well as the prices kind of have gone up since Easter and all has weakened against the American dollar and that being said I will put all the links in the description below for the UK Australia and the US so let's get on with it so for the CPU we're going with an i3 4160 now this thing comes in at 150 Australian dollars and for the price it's actually pretty good considering the closest eye 5 which is clocked at 3.2 gigs cost over 250 dollars I was like scratching my head and thinking what is going on in Australia at the moment why is the four core so much more expensive than the i3 I guess the i3 has been underrated it's not selling enough that being said it's actually the one of the best value CPUs in Australia at the moment so we're gonna go with it today since it's got four threads and it'll have no problems with those games that require four threads and that being said let's move on to the next part some of the multiple we're going with them be 85 845 from MSI I know this thing comes in at 84 strain dollars and it's a good motherboard for the price I mean the B 85 s are kind of that step up from the H 81 m and this one is a little bit better for overclocking than the H 81 and variants as it has a better vrm on board I personally used a variant of this b85 motherboard and I can see it does a fantastic job of running the Haswell four cores really well not only that it stays cool and it'll support a graphics card at PCI Express three speeds as well so you don't have to worry about that so great board for the money so for the case we're going with a $45 Coolermaster 3:3 for you this case is just a decent case it's an entry-level case but it will fit all your all your components in there no problems at all installation should be pretty good since it is a Coolermaster case they do get things right when it comes to simplicity and that's all you're gonna need in today's build so for the memory we're going with some g.skill ripjaws 1600 speed ddr3 memory this is one eight gigabyte stick of memory it's also 84 dollars so it's not too bad value for money with specially when the memory is pretty overpriced in Australia anyway this is not too bad now you've also got one stick there so if you wish to add another stick in the future to get 16 gigabytes of memory you can do that especially if you're going to upgrade to a fork or eight threaded CPU in the future so you just have to switch out the CPU as well you can use the same motherboard anyway this memory is good all you have to do is bang in the XMP profiles and you've got yourself sixteen hundred speed memory instantly so for the hard drive we're going with none other than the Western Digital caviar blue one terabyte this thing comes in a little bit over sixty Australian dollars and for the money it's a really good hard drive it's fast it's cheap you've got a lot of storage there you're also in the future if you wish to upgrade you can use this as a backup hard drive so Western Digital have you covered for the hard drive now for the gratis card this is the most important part of your build and for the value for money here the r9 280 at 250 Australian dollars is pretty damn good value for money so if you want to step it up to a better graphics card your next thing up is like an online 290 which is going for around $400 and then there's a GTX 970 which is going for around four hundred seventy dollars so the price difference there is quite big though for $250 the r9 280 will do a fantastic job of playing games at 1080p and playing them pretty damn well so for the powerplay this is one of the parts where I really like to spend a little bit of extra money if you can you can go with a 55 dollar 500 watt power supply that will be perfectly fine though for a national 24 dollars you can get something that will last you into the future so this is what we're going with we only the silverstone strainer sensor of 600 watt 80 plus bronze power supply now it'll power this build perfectly fine more it's overkill for this build but if you wish to upgrade your components in the future you'll generally won't have to worry about the power supply especially if you're going with a 4 core CPU and then you're going to step it up to like a GTX 970 or something in the future this power supply will be perfectly fine for that as well also while saving you power and the power bill and being a more reliable suit than the cheaper components so that's it for today the total bill comes in a 760 - Ozzie dollars and it's gonna be a great PC for gaming so if you
