I WANT TO DO GAMING VIDS

[OriginalNex TV]

I wanna do Gaming videos but I need a computer thats cheap enough but will do the job.
For example can run OBS, can run games at a decent speed and can do what it needs so that I can upload them I Dont wanna just throw it up on the net. Any Advice?

 

[Chris Carruthers]

The problem is what is a decent speed to you?

I don't want to play games at less than 100%, so I have 32GB RAM, i5 processor and a 6GB GTX 1060

 

[OriginalNex TV]

enough to get 60fps and can run obs for live stream and atuf

Nvidia GTX 960 GPU
AMD FX6300 hexacore processor at 6x3,5 GHz (overclocked to 5GHz pr core)
3TB harddrive space (2TB + 1)
Water-air cooling hybrid: A40 from cryorig.

It is not so expensive if you build it yourself

It all depends on your budget and what type of games you want to play, good speed to you is going to be very different from good speed to me.

(I'm in the UK, so sorry if the price difference kinda confuses you)

I'm not sure what your 'low' price point is, but for a decent pc that can run most games at a decent frame rate I give you the....(insert name here, I'm not good with naming things)

Cpu - AMD FX-8350 8 core cpu 4.0-4.2GHz
MSI Radeon RX 480 4GB Video Card
Asus M5A97 ATX AM3+
8GB Kingston HyperX Fury Black
1TB WD Blue Hard Drive 7200RPM
Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case
EVGA 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
+ the price for an operating system
+ peripherals (mouse, keyboard, headset)
+ monitor if you don't have one already (you can still use a tv screen :3 )

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/tc7wD8
PC PartPicker price - £717.01/ $880.26/841.21 Euro (this is really inaccurate, all pc part picker does is look at websites and gets the relevant date it needs, price is never accurate on here)

Amazon Price for the same pc - £639.24/$784.68/750.00 Euro
I trust Amazon more because you can get deals or bundles with pc parts and they're just more trust worthy in my opinion.

But if putting together a Pc is sound too like it's too much I suggest a pre-bult pc from Gladiatorpcs
https://www.gladiatorpc.co.uk/configure/config/64378

They're honestly really cheep and realiable pcs, and you can customise them to what you want as well. But if you decide to learn how to build pcs checkout LinusTechTips, his channel is all about pc building and eh teaches you EVERYTHING from parts and what to do, to what you need to look for and reasearch when buying a pc.

I hope this helped in some way :3

Will you be playing heavy games like Hello Neighbor and Call of Duty or CPU based games like Minecraft?

 

[OriginalNex TV]

£200 if I have to buy it soon ... like in next month or couple of weeks,
however if it is in say 3-4 months around £1000

preferably sooner[DOUBLEPOST=1482906281][/DOUBLEPOST]

I will be playing xbox one games down the line, xbox 360 maybe, some PC games would be more like warhammer board based games, strategy games on PC but for xbox - Fifa, GTA v and rpgs

I would wait the few extra months and save as much money as possible so you can buy some good parts and get a really good pc.

Since it sound like you will mainly me doing console and later some moderate level games, I would recommend an Intel i5 quad core, 8 GB of DDR3 RAM, and an Nvidia GTX 700, 800, or 900 series GPU. Also, I would get an SSD and a game capture card. I would recommend an Aver Media card that can handle 1080p at 60 FPS. Hope that helped!

This is the PC I have. I originally had an AMD r9 290 but upgraded thanks to family on Christmas. This PC cost around $800 but I already had a monitor, set of speakers, mouse, keyboard, and a friend got me a free copy of windows through his father. I also waited until Black Friday and December to get things on sale. It's not a top notch PC but I really like it and it gets the job done. I currently play Skyrim SE on ultra at 60fps.

Yes I just run my streams through Nvidias Shadowplay. which is build into the graphic cards

 

[Englishbulldogg]

I'd say upgrade and then go for it.

 

[Deleted member 18369]

look through amazon, ebay, craigslist, or your friendly local computer broker if you have one for possibly cheep hardware needs

 

[Jobless Music]

I dunno what 'cheap' would best fit you, but I have an i3 Alienware Alpha. It costed me $500 online.
Wishing you the best on your gaming channel.

 

[iPIxelDot]

The best route to go is not go for the cheapest one you can find with the necessary specs to run those, but to try to stick with a budget build. Figure out how much you can spend on a PC and then go from there. I would stick to around $300-450 if you're looking for a cheap build. I would focus on decent RAM and a GPU for sure.

So my question to help you out would be,
how much are you willing to spend?[DOUBLEPOST=1483835728][/DOUBLEPOST]
I wouldn't make it a prime feature to look into, but yeah... you definitely should make sure it's a good brand and size. I always go for WD as they have some really nice higher end ones that are fairly priced. On top of that, I also use an external hdd (and cloud drive) to help back up my videos and images.

 

[hmforall]

My Pc was around 900 dollars from scratch (859 euro to be exact)
But why not try to make a video first and see how it turns out? You could put it on private and then show it to people for advice.
People like you for being you (most of the times). So do what you like and not what people demand of you.
