Post your Monster Gaming Rig
Sup Fellas. I've been building computers since I was little. Took a little break but I'm back at it again. Looking to build a monster desktop(SLI setup).
My MSI Dominator laptop ain't cutting it but it has some decent specs such as: - i7 6820HK - GTX Geforce 980M - 16GB DDR5 - 2 512GB Samsung Pro 950 I have no budget as of now since I'm rusty and haven't looked at desktop components in a while so any input would be appreciated. I just need to run 4K gaming consistently with all Ultra settings at 60+ FPS |

"Budget" Rig that doubles as my work station:
Case: Roswell Galaxy-02 Mid Tower PSU: EVGA 500W Motherboard: MSI B150M Pro-VD Processor: Intel i3-6100 (3.7MHz) Memory: G.Skill NT Series 8 GB GPU: Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 1070 G1 Gaming Network: TP Link Archer T8E Storage: Samsung 850 Evo 1TB SSD Display: LG 27" 4K IPS 27UD68 Came in just under $1,300. I want to say D00M runs 80+ FPS at 1440p with Ultra settings.

If I were going to build a 4K 60fps rig I'd go:
i7 6700K + AIO liquidcooler m.2 ssd + traditional HDD gtx 1080 (maybe 2 depending on the games you want to play) I have too many PCs as it is now, so I don't think im going to upgrade anytime soon. |
