Win10 is alright but some games still work better on win7, I'd throw in a 500gb hdd to dual boot it from
Otherwise probably futureproof. What mouse, keyboard gamepads etc you thinking of? |

Date: October 18th, 2017 4:00 PM Author: Orange gay wizard hall My Logitech G700 has held up for years now, and I drop it onto the floor weekly. Has 4 side buttons and 3 next to the LMB, fully customizable, use all of them constantly.
As far as keyboards it depends on what you want - if you need lots of hotkeys steelseries has a few good mechanical ones (but I'm using a razer black widow I got as a gift years ago and it works fine for my purposes). Just research what kind of switch you want (quiet, springy, low resistance etc). If you can, get one with a PS2 connector (the old green and purple one), it can register all keys pressed at once. USB only allows like 5. |

Date: October 18th, 2017 4:04 PM Author: Orange gay wizard hall 32g of ram? And games usually go on the HDD, that's why it's best to go big and just mirror it
Yes on the power supply though, anything but a very fucking good one can ruin your audio |

Date: October 18th, 2017 4:22 PM Author: haunting hospital mental disorder RAM is relatively cheap and rising in price. 16GB has been the standard for high end gaming for well over a year. A system like this will last a while so may as well futureproof RAM now.
Putting games on a HDD is a terrible idea. The entire point of an SSD is fast load times. |
