New Rig

ArchivedUser

So my PC broke down on Wednesday and turns out to be a motherboard issue. Didn't plan on buying a new one till next summer but might need one now. Any tech savy people here recommend anything within a $1K budget that should be able to run Ashes at at least medium quality?

Is this any good?

I’ve built PCs professionally since 1999.  That rig isn’t bad.  Not a fantastic gaming machine, and certainly not cutting edge, but it should have no trouble running this game on at least moderate settings.  I think it’ll match your above conditions just fine.

A little bit more then you wanted to spend, but the ddr4 ram is worth it.

Im building one in the next month or two, I'm hoping to build a system with no video card that I'm able to upgrade later because I only have about $600-$700 available for the build. The build I'm looking at should be able to play all current games at some level of graphics and then later next summer/fall when I have more funds available for the computer I can drop a sweet video card into it just in time for AoC to release. I'll be building it off of a AMD Ryzen 2600x because of the combination of power and price point.
