Budget for a PC?
I'm saving for a gaming PC. However, this will be my very first build and I'm not very technical. If I'm being honest, I'll likely end up asking for a build on different sites and compare what people will give me and buy the parts that are suggested. I need a budget to give them though, and I'm not certain where to cut my savings off for it.
The PC is going to be what I'll likely end up playing the majority of my games on with the PS4 for exclusives (and probably Destiny lol). I'd like to hit at least high settings on most games going into next gen. So, if you have any suggestions for a budget before peripherals, I'd be very grateful.
EDIT: Thanks to everyone that responded! Y'all have been very helpful and I've decided on my budget. I'll aim for about $1500, though the wait in saving is going to drive me near mad, ha. I'm very excited. :D

3 RepliesIn my opinion, if you're going to build a gaming PC, make it worth your while and don't regret any purchases you make to build it. Make it count. That being said, I think $700-800 is reasonable for something that's going to last you a while, if you're really on a budget. $1000-1200 if you want to really invest on hardware that will keep you set for years to come. That means grab a newer CPU, a really nice video card and enough RAM to cover you. Obviously, if you can make some sacrifices that don't affect the actual build (ie not getting an extravagant case), do so. I just feel building a budget PC just generates more costs down the line than having something that covers you for a longer time.
