Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a great holiday (depending on when your reading this thread). Im sorry the console killer build I promised you guys got delayed a bit, but ill try and make that up to you guys some how. And just because this is a 400 dollar build dont let that fool you, especially the CPU! Lets not waste anymore time shall we?

CPU > Intel Pentium G4400 3.3GHz Dual-Core - $57.88 (I RECOMMEND USING AN i3)

Motherboard > MSI H110M PRO-VD PLUS Micro ATX LGA1151 - $46.98

RAM > Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR4-2666 - $43.99

@Skullmeat sent me a budget build recently. Wonder how they compare.


RE: $400 Console Killer - Esoterith - 12-24-2016

@Oni you should ask @Skullmeat if I can see it. I'm looking for a build.

I should have used 2 sticks of RAM for dual channel :/

You're gonna get bottlenecked because of the CPU.

your probably right, I really didnt think about bottleneck issues.


RE: $400 Console Killer - Bish0pQ - 12-27-2016

Apart from the CPU, it's a pretty descent budget build. I would go for an I5 though.


RE: $400 Console Killer - Skullmeat - 12-28-2016

That cpu. I'd be concerned about the 1050 bottle necking. An i3 might be a safer bet.
