So i'm planning on getting a new computer that is relatively cheap but good enough to run PUBG. Any suggestions on graphics,cooling, etc. <3
 
What is your price range? You may be able to find some used parts, if you wanted to save some money.
 
Okay you can definitely find decent parts and probably another tower for a good price. I will send you a pm.
 
$1000-$1500. Problem is that I don't have a tower that would be able to fit anything useful.

if you do a little bit of research, I bought a Gigabyte mobo, and it came with a free case, I bought a i7 CPU and came with 16 gig fury hyperx...so just shop around.
 
I recommend the i9 extreme and a 1080Ti as this is the best bang for your buck. My dad just got the i9 extreme edition in and WOWZA I've never seen Roblox play so smoothly before.

But in all seriousness I have an i7 6800k and a 1080Ti and I'm able to run PUBG on high at 3440 x 1440, achieving 100 FPS consistently unless I'm in a red zone. Those explosions kill my framerate.

the i9 is such over kill for a gaming rig, unless you're running 4k, VR and data servers at the same time.
 
$1000-$1500 is a lot if all you want to run is pubg (even though it is terribly optimized). You can easily get amazing parts with that budget unless you want to do 1080 ti SLI.

i9 Wont really gain you much of a performance increase (FPS wise) over an i7-8700k. Actually FPS wise the 8700k averages about 7 more FPS over an i9. Best bang for your buck is the i5-8400.

Shop via Newegg.com Tons of combo deals like crazy, plus all the holiday events, discounts, mobile perks, account premier perks, been dealing with them for ages. You can get it all under 1,500.00 Just my opinion. All you really need is a I7-7700k or even a I5-7600k, at least 16gb Ram, good airflow/cooling, min 250gb SSD, I recommend either a ASRock or Gigabyte mobo, and a 1060, is way more then enough to run anything. Plus its VR ready, OR if you want to run a cheaper route, go Ryzen build, But i prefer Intel. Still trying to fig. out why ppl overkill. Especially when tech. is moving so fast every mo/yr.If you get my drift.
