Will this computer set up be able to run games like this (DayZ) and BF3?

Recommended Posts

Ok, so I am definitely not the best at choosing the right parts for a computer, especially a gaming one. I know what the most known processor and video card types (Nvidia/AMD, Intel, etc.) are, however choosing ones to go together is what I am not good at. (Like the motherboard, in how I chose a mini but I donot know if it will work with the case and other hardware...) Basically I am asking if these choices I made on amazon are good for when I actually rack up all the cash to buy the parts with. Also, it would great if you could tell me what kind of games it can play and what settings they can reach..

Ok, heres the set up:

CPU: Intel Core i5-3470 Quad-Core Processor 3.2 GHz

GPU: Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7850 1GB GDDR5

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8 GB

COOLER: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

MOTHERBOARD: ASUS Intel H77 mini ITX

POWER SUPPLY: Corsair Builder Series CX 750 Watt

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 500 GB

CASE: Cooler Master Elite 430 - Mid Tower

Alright, there it is. Im looking into playing games like DayZ and Bf3 on high to max settings :D

BF3 will be a joke, expect 45-80 fps on that rig on ultra, and dayz, i would say 60, but ya know, this is dayz, but good build man!

PS: 500 watt? nono, 700 at least.

Ah okay then! Thanks for the reply! Also, what do you mean by "BF3 will be a joke.." You mean that this rig can power through it fine.. cause 60 - 80 is fine for me.. I dont care about getting like 120 frames on anything cause I mean, all I get in dayz right now is like 20 frames XD

i mean that it will be no problem on that rig, and man i seriously recommend you to increase the PSU to 650-700 Watts atleast so the card&processor can run smooth toguether, hope you enjoy your build when you have it

Recently built a rig similar to your specs, you may want to look into low profile memory. Some say you won't need it with the CM hyper 212 EVO while others say you will. I think it's a safer bet. :)
