This Weeks Recommended Build
$706.72 after discounts! (Shipping Included)
The Processor:
Intel Core i3-4130 3.4GHz LGA 1150 Desktop Processor
We all need a processor and even though it's the small Dual Core size, the i3 typically runs circles around it's similary priced and even slightly higher priced counterparts! Especially the gaming-oriented "Haswell Edition." If you're looking for near mid range performance and literally YEARS of stable running then we highly recommend the Intel i3 processor for your budget build.
The Power Supply:
CORSAIR CXM series CX500M 500W Power Supply
Corsair has established themselves pretty well in the Power Supply market over the last few years. A 500 watt power supply should be all you need for years of use. This is also 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified.
The System Case:
Antec GX500 Black Computer Case
Antec is one of the better brands of cases around. They typically won't fall apart like some others or cut you with sharp edges so you won't need to worry about missing skin or getting blood on your parts! lol. This is a heck of a deal for an entry level case with decent cooling.
Hopefully this bit of information has helped guide you in deciding your next build. For further tips or if you have any questions, feel free to comment!
