A Beginner Guide To Building A Gamer PC

By Shirley Campbell


For those who love to play games at home or for those who want to become professional players, they will need a good computer for games. Now, in order to have a gamer pc, certain specs will be needed to take the heavy requirements of games. So for those who are really serious about getting a powerful gaming computer, here are some of the things to take note of with regard to the specs.

The first thing that one has to take into consideration would be the CPU. At the very least, one must have a two core processor to take most basic games. However, one will definitely have to check the processor requirements of each individual game to see if that particular game would need a higher core processor.

After that, one has to then determine the definition requirements of the game. In order to play a game in full high definition, most processors have to be a least 2.5Ghz in the processor. Another way to determine this would be through checking whether the processor is an i5 or an i7 because i5 processors are the bare minimum for games while an i7 is the best type of processor for games.

Moving on from the processor, the next thing to take note of would be the graphic cards as that would directly affect gameplay. With regard to the motherboard, the motherboard has to have the compatible slots for the right dual graphic cards. At a minimum, the motherboard must first have the right SLI slot for the NVIDIA cards or it must have the right Crossfire slot for the AMD Crossfire cards which can run dual graphic cards.

Now, another thing that one would have to take note of would be the display and memory of the graphic cards. A good range for memory of a graphic card would be around 2GB to 4GB because these memories can play up to 60 or 90 frames per second. This ensures that lagging can be prevented.

Next up is the RAM which is either a DDR3 or a DDR4 as these two are the best RAMs for a gaming motherboard. Do take note that these are also the most compatible with gaming computer motherboards as well. With regard to memory, 32GB is the most recommended but 16GB will do depending on the game.

The last thing to take note of would be the hard drive. The most common type of hard drive would be the HDD which should be 7200RPM and have a cached memory of 16MB in order to take games. As for the storage size, one would want to get a size of up to 500GB for high graphics games but 250GB will suffice for lower graphics games.

Now, those are some of the most basic things that one must have in order to have a good gaming computer. Other stuff can come later such as a gaming mouse, keyboard, joystick, power supply, high def monitor, and other things. As long as the basic things are gotten, then the computer is good to go.
