What I'm after here is a parts list for a gaming PC build that can run Minecraft and Skyrim at 60FPS or better, with a soft price cap of $800.
PC Build capable of running Minecraft and Skyrim at 60FPS or better at 1080p. On a budget?
Skyrim and minecraft aren't even hard to run. You can even max those games out for less than $400. But here's a list of parts (without operating system) with a price that sums to to around $780
CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
motherboard: ASRock H97 Anniversary ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
RAM: A-Data XPG V1.0 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
HDD: Hitachi Deskstar 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
GPU: Gigabyte Radeon R9 290 4GB WINDFORCE Video Card
Case: NZXT S340 (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU: EVGA 750W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Well billy, look up the potato masher, it can play GTAV at high at 1440p at 60fps, locked. Meaning that will destroy other games you throw at it. I'd recommend replacing the GPU in the build to a GTX 660 SC, though.
