Build Your Own PcGaming Part 2: High End

Today we bring you the second part of our entry of Guide for budget Nfortec. If in the first installment we assembled a team around 600 € today we will double the budget and make a composition that is around 1,200 € focused to play in 4K and to enjoy virtual reality technologies.

have you been researching components since the last blog post? (Me neither...) As we mentioned in the previous post one of the biggest advantages of building your own configuration for the computer is the possibility of focusing it towards the purpose for which we are going to use it. In this case our goal is to prepare a computer that is able to play at 4K with a budget of 1.200€.

what will we need?

Let's make a small reminder of the components we are going to need and what each one is for. What we should look for is a processor or CPU, a motherboard, the graphics card or GPU, RAM, hard drives and SSDs and a power supply that gives us power to all this.

• The processor or CPU is the part that organizes everything and makes sure it works correctly.
• The motherboard is where we are going to connect all our components and we must make sure it has the ports we need. A clear example of this is the 3 pin 5v port to control the lighting. All our new towers have this system and if you want to get the most out of it you will have to buy a motherboard that has this port.
• With the graphics card we will be able to materialize in images the orders that arrive to it from the processor.
• With the RAM memory we will obtain capacity for the computer to work. The more we have, the more actions the computer will be able to carry out.
• As for hard disks (HDD) and SSD are the storage units. The HDD is the traditional technology, cheaper but with a much slower reading speed, unlike the SSD that tend to have a higher price but a much higher reading speed.
• And we finish with the power supply. This is the engine of our equipment. Choosing the most powerful power supply will not be a favor to our equipment. The best thing to do is to adjust the power of our power supply to our requirements in order to achieve greater efficiency and also to be environmentally friendly by saving on our electricity bill.

The components

Let's get to the interesting part of the article: What components are we going to choose? As in the first part of this post, there are many options, we can make much cheaper configurations and also with much higher budgets.

For the processor we have opted for a AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 3.8GHz

As motherboard we have chosen Asus Rog Strix B450-E Gaming

The graphics card chosen for this composition Gigabyte AORUS GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8GB GDDR6

The RAM that we will mount in our equipment will be the Team Group T-Force Night Hawk RGB DDR4 3000 PC4-24000 16GB 2x8 CL16

Our hard drive will be the Seagate BarraCuda 3.5" 1TB SATA3 and as SSD we have chosen the Toshiba OCZ TR200 SSD 480GB SATA3

And our last component will be Nfortec SAGITTA RGB 750W FULL MODULAR

All these components have been mounted in the new box Nfortec Krater. If we also want to include cooling we have two options, the Centaurus RGB CPU Air Cooler or if we prefer AIO cooling systems we also have the liquid cooled Andromeda both 120mm and 240mmversion.

We hope you found this second part as useful as the previous installment.
