LeMarchand Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 and I want purple lights :-) £27 if you're after a cheapie for now. I can't game with a keyboard... struggle with worms and that only needs like... 5 keys :-p Mouse&Keyboard master race! I actually can't use controllers too well.. Especially in any FPS games where aim is critical. I use a controller most of the time now (use Pinnacle Game Profiler), but then I don't play a lot of FPS. Once in a blue moon I'll break out my older version of this and mouse, but only if I'm desperate.
tmcd35 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Just get a PS4!! GET OUT OF THIS THREAD. YOU DON'T BELONG HERE. YEAH! HE SHOULD OBVIOUSLY JOIN THE WII U MASTER RACE! If it was my £600 I'd get a PS4 and a Wii-U, the best of all worlds. None of this keyboard and mouse nonsense... Mouse&Keyboard master race! I actually can't use controllers too well.. Especially in any FPS games where aim is critical. Argh! Can't stand FPS's. Vomit inducing first person perspective. And as for multiplayer... Give me a console were I can be billy no-mates playing a quality story driven 3rd person adventure like The Last of Us, no can't get that on your fancy 4Ghz, GTX Titan, PeeCee (On topic, I'd go for a quad core AMD FX, with 8Gb Ram and a mid-spec graphics card with as much graphics ram as I could afford, preferably 4Gb if possible at that price). 1
sonofsanta Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Would one of these cheaper PSU's do? Power Supplies - 601 - 750W PSUs | Ebuyer.com Corsair CSM 650W Semi Modular 80+ Gold Power Supply - Ebuyer Corsair tend to be solid, so that CSM650 will do a good job. jonnyguru did a review of the 550W unit and found no major problems with it considering its market position (i.e. not premium, just solid): JonnyGURU - Corsair CS550M 550W

Take Grand Theft Auto 5 for example which I still haven't played and won't do until the game is available on PC. I had one glance at my brothers PS3 version and vommited a little after seeing the grainy/blurry graphics and running at 720p - I say kill it with fire. Though I do miss these AAA titles we don't see enough of them and one of my major concerns is Tomb Raider 2, I played the first one on PC twice and I was hooked. What a game. Though now it seems Xbox have got exclusive rights or so last I heard so no more Tomb Raider for lil ol me anymore
Garacesh Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Argh! Can't stand FPS's. Vomit inducing first person perspective. And as for multiplayer... Not your regular MP FPS player, non of this COD/Battlefield/Grey-Grit-Wartime-Shooter rubbish.. I'm talking games like PAYDAY 2, 7 Days to Die, Maaaaybe some TF2 once in a blue moon (when there's free hats).. But mostly DOTA 2 which isn't even an FPS. But that obviously needs M&K.. You could play it with a controller, but I wouldn't recommend it. Maybe I should fire up XPadder for the lulz.. Edit: The whole 'Exclusive to not PC' thing annoys me, too.. But it's lazy devs and we've seen that time and time again anyway. The devs can't be bothered building something that works across a multitude of systems to they only bother to build it for 2 machines that will always have the same (or comparatively the same) hardware. Maybe a memory or a disk space upgrade here or there between versions but mostly, the same. And people lap it up, because consoles are the 'big thing' at the moment.

GTA V on the PS4 is LUSH I'll second that, garage full of BMXs in multiplayer, just spend all my online time on there jumping off of buildings.
CHR1S Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Im still waiting for a PC version of RDR, no really I am!
X-13 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Though now it seems Xbox have got exclusive rights or so last I heard so no more Tomb Raider for lil ol me anymore Like all the next gen exclusives... they aren't exclusives. [unless made by Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo]
X-13 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Im still waiting for a PC version of RDR, no really I am! I used to be a wait-er like you... until I took a GOTY edition to the console.
googlemad Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I built this over Christmas : Zalman Z11 Plus Gaming Case Corsair CXM 600W (It may be modular, but I've required all the cables be plugged in defeating the object a little bit!) ASRock Z97 Extreme 6 Motherboard Intel i5 4690K Processor G-Skill 8GB DDR3 RAM 480gb Crucial SSD Palit nVidia GTX 760 (second hand off someone from work) Does the job for me so far...Steam is the main reason I've built it, the games especially during sales are cheaper than console purchases and you can mod them easily etc. But then I do have a Wii U, Xbox One and PS4 on top so basically I have far too much money to begin with
X-13 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 so basically I have far too much money to begin with If you ever feel like getting rid of some, feel free to build one of those for me.
Arthur Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Like all the next gen exclusives... they aren't exclusives. The non-exclusive exclusive games are the best type of exclusive.
X-13 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 The non-exclusive exclusive games are the best type of exclusive. Wii U is the weird anime kid in the gamer school... Hyrule Warriors is super fun though. ^__^
Garacesh Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I built this over Christmas : Zalman Z11 Plus Gaming Case Same case as mine Bit of a shame the fins on the top aren't mechanical though, or even adjustable in general. Having them able to close would be good..
Sunnyknight Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Not sure how to reply to all those comments about.... consoles... vs... On another note.... @edutech4schools , how goes the..... ......build?
tmcd35 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Not sure how to reply to all those comments about.... consoles... vs... Do what I did over Christmas - buy a cheap USFF PC and install GameEx. Then you can have a PC that is consoles. Now I can troll both sides of the flamewar
CAM Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Multi-Platform win! PC for ages. Pick up consoles for their exclusives and as they become obsolete I keep them and they become part of a retro collection. Upgrade the PC now and then to keep up. Current gen I am on Wii U for the Nintendo stuff, PC for the big guns and PS4 originally for Destiny but now it's for when I can't be bothered to install and tweak something on PC!
edutech4schools Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 On another note.... @edutech4schools , how goes the..... http://awscdn.cdngeek.net/images/smilies/smilies/bored.gif ......build? http://awscdn.cdngeek.net/images/smilies/biggrin.png Work is going to be very busy for the next few days so not much time to look. On a plus note the wife has found me an extra £100, YAY. So I have about £700.
Sunnyknight Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 build the pc i posted you tiddlywink!!!!!!!
JB7 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 GTA V on the PS4 is LUSH amen to that, always find myself still on at daft oclock engrossed in freeplay or online missions

Sunnyknight Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Are you offering to pay the difference? That's very kind of you Sunny! Eh. What. Sure... no wait.... .... noooooo no I'm not Edit. Spelling. Edited January 7, 2015 by Sunnyknight
X-13 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 build the pc i posted you tiddlywink!!!!!!! @edutech4schools get a console JUST to wind up Sunny! 1
CHR1S Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I used to be a wait-er like you... until I took a GOTY edition to the console. I completed it many times on Xbox 360, plus all the addons, I only have a Wii U now and my laptop so I want a PC version to satisfy the urge (the missus wont let me have a console any more... booo)
