**Building a Powerful Gaming PC**
When it comes to building a powerful gaming PC, there are several components that need to be considered. In this build, we'll be focusing on a few key areas: CPU, GPU, storage, and power supply.
First, let's take a look at the CPU. For this build, I've chosen MSI's Be 150m Bazooka, which is an aggressive name that matches its high-performance capabilities. This CPU is housed in a sleek black and white case that will match with pretty much any colors or accent color you want to throw at it. It's also got all the features we need, including SATA III, 6 GB per second for fast SSD and hard drive transfer speeds, USB 3 for fast peripheral connections, and USB sticks SD card readers.
The CPU I've chosen is a g.skill ripjaws with 16 gigs of DDR4, clocked at a nice and fast 2400 megahertz. This means that it's got plenty of power to handle even the most demanding games. And at $60, it's a great option for storage. The case also comes with an OC 150, which is a fast snappy and cheap SSD made by Toshiba. It's got 240 gigs of storage space, leaving room for additional hard drive or storage upgrades.
Speaking of storage, having enough RAM is crucial for gaming performance. In recent years, games have started recommending 8 gigs of RAM, but it's actually recommended to have at least 16 gigs to avoid bottlenecks in games running slower. And with the cost of RAM dropping over the past few years, 16 gigs of DDR4 for $60 is an incredible deal.
Finally, let's take a look at the power supply. The EVGA supernova NEX 650 watt is an 80+ gold certified power supply that offers high efficiency and reliability. This means it will save you money on energy bills and increase the lifespan of your components. It's also fully modular, with room for up to 8 SATA power cables. This makes it easy to manage your cable management and keep your build looking clean.
**Gaming Card: Sapphire Radeon RX 480**
The star of this build is undoubtedly the Sapphire Radeon RX 480, an 8-gigabyte graphics card that's an incredible value for the price point. It's a popular choice among gamers due to its high-performance capabilities and affordability. The pricing on these has been quite volatile lately, but with a bit of shopping around, you can find a good deal.
**Case: NZXT S340**
The case is the NZXT S340, a budget-oriented version of their higher-end model. It's got all the features we need, including a power supply shroud to cover ugly power supplied cables and an SSD show off area for that beautiful OC 150. The side panel window is also a nice touch, giving you a glimpse into the inner workings of your build.
**Conclusion**
This build has been designed with gaming performance in mind, using a combination of powerful components to create a system that's capable of handling even the most demanding games. With its fast CPU, high-performance graphics card, and efficient power supply, this build is sure to deliver impressive results. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a reliable PC for everyday use, this build has something for everyone.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwelcome back to in the geek awhat video and this is the penultimate of my August 2016 PC builds and this is my $900 build and this is going to smash the latest triple-a titles like many of my previous builds at 1080 and 1440p it's an incredible build ultra setting 60 frames per second so make sure to drop like rain and of course to subscribe but let's kick it off with the parts and start as always with the CPU the CPU m4 is Intel's Core i5 6600 this cpu is clocked at a really nice 3.3 gigahertz and the quad core nature allows it basically to be compatible with all of the latest triple-a titles for the next few years and in theory that kind of six to seven years but obviously I can't quite see into the future this is also a very capable CPU of editing a very capable CPU at editing sorry if you didn't want to dabble into Premiere Pro or After Effects or at Sony Vegas for example this CPU has got you covered to keep the CPU called the cooler master hyper 212 Evo is a best option it's cheap it's got the most five-star review on new egg and it's the most popular CPU cooler you can buy if you did want to save yourself $24.98 then you could go with the stock cooler which comes included free in the box but it's loud and this aftermarket cooler will actually increase the longevity of the CPU the way CPUs wear out in any computer or any mobile phone is if the temperature goes up up and down quite a lot and this is actually gonna keep it pretty stable that the higher the temperature the worst condition the CPU will end up in the middle which is going to house our CPU is MSI's be 150m bazooka what an aggressive name it's got a black and white color scheme and it will match with pretty much any colors any accent color that you want to throw at it it's quite muted it's got all the features we need such as SATA 3 6 give it per second for fast SSD and hard drive transfer speeds USB 3 for any fast kind of peripheral connections and USB sticks SD card readers that kind of thing and it's also got PCIe 3 X 16 to allow our graphics card to take full advantage of all the bandwidth on the the memory I went for was 16 gigs of g.skill ripjaws for it looks amazing it's clocked it a nice and fast ddr4 2400 megahertz and comes in at a nice red color 16 gigabytes as soon becoming the new 8 gigabytes IE it's what games are starting to recommend in their specs what's the point in having 8 gigs of ram and a really really incredible graphics card but then you'll build being bottlenecks in games running slower because they haven't got enough RAM RAM has got a hell of a lot cheaper and back in the day shall we say about four years ago when I bought my 8 gigs it was literally about $70 for 8 gigabytes so now 16 gigs of DDR 4 for $60 is a great option for storage OCC's try on 150 is a nice fast snappy and cheap SSD it's made by a mate made by Toshiba who own OCCC and know this is going to be nice and reliable 240 gigs gives you around 220 gigabytes left once you've installed your Windows operating system for any movies music games and that kind of thing but of course 240 gigs is nowhere near an officer for mass storage 2 terabytes of say gate Barracuda hard drive storage is the best option you're going to install it all you games your Steam library on here the bulk of your video files and that kind of thing and you don't know clog up your SSD with these you don't need your games to load half second faster but you do what you computer to load in half the time hence the choice of the SSD for the video card it really is the star of the show I've used this a few times now and been very very impressed sapphires Radeon rx 480 is an 8 gigabyte 2 video card it really is an incredible card especially for the price point that is if you can get your hands on one the pricing on these has been quite volatile lately but the kind of the price differences in this build will kind of allow for that and if you do a bit of shopping around especially on new egg you will find a good deal but Amazon links for everything will be in the description below it's an incredible card and it comes in at an incredible price point for the case NZXT s340 is ridiculously good it takes the features from its higher-end bigger brother h4 40 and moves them down to a more budget oriented price point it's got a power supply shroud to cover your ugly power supplied cables and SSD show off area for that beautiful OC 150 and it's also got room for two ATX motherboards and a really nice side panel window power supplies are easily the most overlooked component in any build they have the capability to wipe out your entire build and cost you a fortune in energy bills thankfully the EVGA supernova NEX 650 watt exactly offers it it's an 80 plus gold certified power supply I mean it's guaranteed to output over like 90% efficiency at all times meaning that it's going to save you money at the wall and also increase the lifespan and longevity of your components the fact that it's fully modular that means you only plug in the cables that you need and non modular power supply for example might have room for up to 8 let SATA power cables coming straight off at you can't detach this you only plug in what you need only plug in 2 SATA power cables one for the hard drive one for the SSD it's a great power supply it comes in a bit more of a heavier price point that then some people would like but why would you risk your whole system with a power supply no seriously but that wraps it up for this build if
