Hey guys I'm posting this on behalf of a friend. He needs a gaming PC in 100k. He already has a monitor and a HDD but needs other parts all new. He also wants an SSD (as a must). I'd appreciate your response and if you could also give a link to the product you suggest. Thanks.

Any ideas on an SSD mate?
in my opinion SSD is not a "must buy" part of PC, i am not in favor of lowering GPU and buy SSD....
so if you have extra cash then buy an SSD, otherwise don't cut down GPU/CPU/casing for SSD

You can get any SSD from the below according to your budget (there are better SSDs available like Samsung 840/850 or Crucial etc... but probably you won't find them locally and they may be expensive)

if the main purpose is gaming then the setup is okay, however try to buy asus 970 instead of giga 970 windforce

both vs650 and TT630 should support the gtx 970 and rest of setup,

H97 mb. a bit future proof as it will support "broadwel" CPUs but no tension if you will not your processor anytime soon ...

My setup is almost similar but with a 660Ti instead of 970 (both have same TDP) and I am running it on a 450W power supply without any problem. So you can even buy a 500W, just make sure that it is 80PLUS.

what's the difference between the gigabyte and Asus one? I thought the gigabyte g1 was the best variant of the 970

    Personally i see only one game that should be truly deserving of GOTY title this year (if it delivers). And that's KCD:II

  • XPremiuM XPremiuM:
    The gameplay is generic & outdated in that game. And it's 5 hour campaign is too short to enjoy.

    About Hellblade 2, I just watched the story on a YT channel out of curiosity and I think it has the Hallmark of a GOTY this year. While many criticize the game and I also don't like this genre of game, I believe the story and visuals looks like a cenimatic masterpiece.
    It may win the "best visuals" category, but that's about it. A GOTY contender needs to nail all aspects (Story, Gameplay, Visuals, etc)

    Just downloaded Farm Simulator 2024. The game is available for free on Epic fo limited time. I always wondered how our food is harvested. This game endorsed by the UN will reveal the process of farming.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.
