This is some more ignorant information. If you are smart with your build, you can easily build a $600 PC that will last a few years and leave room for future upgrades. My PC is going on four years old and all I've done is upgraded the GPU and I can run every game on ultra settings at 1440p. Build a base PC now but pick parts that will be suitable for upgrading in the future.

You know pc parts in AUD is nothing like USD right?

My post was directed towards the first part of their post. I actually didn't read anything past the first sentence.

got to say id love to know the 3 year old budget pc you built capable of running games at 1440p maxed out (well im guesing thats what you mean by ultra) at a constant 60+ fps, 1440p is an ass to run at and even with an ocd 4790k and a pair of ocd 980 amp extremes some games cause me to drop to the 50's at times (even in fo4 but thats more to do with buggy shadows in certain areas).

Get a console in all honesty as even if you get a semi decent one that can run games, it will be obsolete by the end of next year (maybe sooner). I spent nearly $3000 on my PC and I think between $1000-$1500 is an acceptable price range for a PC that will remain useable for a few years. (That's in AUD btw)

I wouldn't say ignorant...maybe I just prefer really good PC's lol

Once again, I never said I have a budget PC. I simply said a budget PC can last you for a few years if you keep it upgraded. Mine cost over $3,500 total with all the upgrades (PSU died and was replaced and I upgraded from SLi 670s to a 980 Ti). I should also note I overclocked my 4770 i7 to 4.5GHz and heavily overclocked my Superclocked eVGA 980 Ti.

@OP I did attempt to try and create a build on PC Part Picker using Canadian dollars but I just couldn't get anywhere near your budget, you need to be looking closer to $800 in my honest opinion.

Some people will say their PC that's within your budget runs the game fine etc etc etc, but if you do the same and it doesn't those same people are not going to compensate you for your loss, so being realistic either aim for the XBONE/PS4 or save your money.

Lol just get a console if you cannot afford a gaming computer. Buying a gaming pc for this game is not really worth it.

I highly doubt anyone who builds a gaming PC is building is for a single game. Just because they are excited for FO4 doesn't mean once they build the PC they will ONLY play Fallout 4.

Dont even bother looking a PC for 300-500 Euro. Not worth it. Get a console. XBOX One I guess.

For people who cant afford much I cant recommend a Gaming or even Highend computer. You would need a 1000 Euro rig to max this game out on playable FPS. 500 Euro for lowest settings with playable FPS.

With all the $300 holiday sales, a Xbox or ps4 are the best budget choices. You get decent graphics and fairly constant stability. I happened to grab a alienware alpha at $349 on clearance, a decent budget pc that I can upgrade a little for my son. I'd still recommended a console over that if you want to play AAA games.

You can watch Scapyard Wars and get some ideas ;)

Things with consoles are i can aim for ♥♥♥♥ on them and like i said already had a ps4 which was a waste of money

I use to be the same way. Played battlefield on pc, when I switched to console I couldn't stand the aiming. I put down pc awhile (no budget) and went strictly console. Now back on pc again, I find myself plugging the controller in more than using my mouse.. I have a PS4 and a PC now and I only pull my PS4 out for my exclusive games now.

what piece of ♥♥♥♥ did you pay $400 for that only does 20fps? I can play at full ultra at 60fps with a $400 card.

I5-3570k overclocked to 4.2 Vidcard is a 7970. It isn't always 20, but does bottom out when it rains and a fair amount is going on otherwise.

I7 3770 4.2 OC and a GTX 970 SC, never drops below 55 at Full ultra. AMD... Cough...

Just save your money until you have $800-$1000 then, that's my opinion anyway.
