I've been playing 360 for a fair old while now, and have been wanting to get into PC for a couple of years but have never made the plunge...It's been a little while since I've taken a look into newer graphics cards so a bit of advice on what's about would be appreciatedPC gamer here
Main games I'd be playing are the likes of Battlefield 3. And well yeah, thatI know budget is a big thing that'll come into it, but I already have plenty of storage (not to say I wouldn't mind more), so that cuts down some of the potential cost.
Also please no lmgtfy links or posts saying consoles are betterI will say 'your couch' in advance to any of you thinking of it
Here are my personal choice for my future upgrade:
CPU: i5 3570 (ivy)
CPU Cooler: CM Hyper 212 EVO
GPU: Sapphire HD 7850 OC
Mobo: Gigabyte Z77 UD3H
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600MHz (dual channel)
HD: Western Digital Blue 500GB
SSD: Intel SSD 330 Series Sata 3
PSU: Corsair GS600
Case: NZXT Phantom 410 Gunmetal
Check them out, they are the best I can come up with since I'm on a tight budget
