So when i was looking on forums of people how give out there PC ideas they where mostly around the £500 mark or $800. So i set out to build a gaming PC that can not only handle smite on highest but also BF4 (on med 60FPS ,btw BF4 still looks beautiful) All for just...
£278.93 or $432.26
(note that this is with out graphics card so it will be able to run smite highest but not BF4 on the same FPS)
with graphics card pc price is...
£344.92 or $534.47

pc specs

(All PC parts are chosen from www.aria.co.uk )

(note that this build is for budget games that still want a premium expirence when playing smite and other games )

Motherboard
For this i have chosen a motherboard that is small and has all the bells and whistles you need and has low power consumption.

https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Motherboards/AMD+Socket/Socket+FM2%2B+AMD+A68/Gigabyte+F2A68HM-HD2+AMD+FM2%2B+Micro+ATX+Motherboard+?productId=63113

Processor
i chose and AMD APU that has 12 cores 4 are dedicated to Processing and 8 are R7 graphics cores so it is basically a processor and graphics card in one .

https://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/AMD+A10+7870K+Black+APU%2C+Socket+FM2%2B%2C+Quad+Core+Processor+?productId=64305

RAM
OK so for the RAM i went with 8GB and the reasoning behind choosing this ram is the 2400MHz this is the highest compatible MHz that the motherboard can handle and it does the job of pumping info in to the processor better-than lower MHz RAM . higher MHz also increases FPS dramatically

https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/RAM/DDR3/Dual+Channel+2400MHz/Kingston+HyperX+Savage+Red+8GB+%282x4GB%29+DDR3+PC3-19200C11+2400MHz+Dual+Channel+Kit+%28HX324C11SRK2%2F8%29+?productId=63581

Case with PSU
so a it is a budget pc i chose a case with a Power supply the power supply is actually really reliable i have been using it for a few month and it has never got really hot or smelt like it was burning so this is a excellent chose .

https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Cases/Cases+with+PSUs/Viper+Mini+Tower+Case%2C++500W+PSU%2C+USB+3.0+-+Black+?productId=62083

Storage

so SSD or HDD the age old question y not both oh wait you can with a seagate SSHD you can get almost SSD like speeds with the affordability and sizer of a HDD.

https://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Storage/Hard+Drives/3.5+Inch+SATA+Drives/640GB+-+1TB/Seagate+1TB+HDD+%2F+8GB+SSD+3.5%22+Hybrid+Drive?productId=57670

So if you want to you can use these parts to kick *** on smite using the highest settings at 60 FPS or if you want to play more intensive games like BF4 you might need to get a graphics card this can be bought with all the other components or you can do it like me and get it later when you save up the money .

for the graphics card i got a R7 250 OC this is a very special card for budget gamer with an AMD APU as it allows you to run in dual graphics and this is when the processor and graphics card work as one and not as tow different components this pared with AMDs mantel technology means that games that use mantle the graphics card will shine it is easy to see what game use mantle by inter net search

(OK so i lied this card is not from aria pc as it is not in stock )

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=701&catid=56&subid=1984

don't forget like additional cost like windows 8.1 and inter net security i would recommencement getting stuff like this from G2A.com as it is at a vastly discounted price or you could acquire them in a no legal way but i am not suggesting that you do it or am i saying that i know how to as i have bought my OS . you will also need a monitor key board and mouse but i thing these are all personal preference so you can chose for your self.
