Yeah ikr ;-;

Runs at 500 FPS??? Riiight... If you hit F3 and it's says 94892349 FPS, but you only have a monitor that has a refresh rate of 60 Hertz, then you're only seeing 60 FPS on the screen. If the monitor has a 144 Hertz refresh rate, you can only see 144 FPS. You won't see a difference between 500 FPS or 144 FPS. You will only see a maximum of 144 FPS if you have such a good monitor.

I was looking at all the silly comments then BAM!

You don't really need over 144 FPS for any reason.
I would settle for a little less graphically if you're planning on only playing Minecraft.
However, if you're planning to buy an all-out gaming PC that can run anything smoothly, I would increase your budget by a lot.
It's better to save for longer and get a better computer than buy whatever you can now and get something that's only mediocre.

If you're planning on recording, I'd spend a decent amount on an SSD, NVidia GTX 600 series or above graphics card, and a 144Hz monitor. This way you can record at 60 FPS with Shadowplay, or over 120 FPS smoothly with any other recording program into the SSD. The 144Hz monitor would allow for maximum smoothness.

Also, I'd do research for yourself. It's much more satisfying (and useful) knowing your own specs by heart - and you know exactly what will work and what won't.

Good luck.

you thief
actually jk i did this today and i didnt even notice yours rip

I just figured out that my mom gets a huge discount since she works at Intel. I can get i7 4770k with a motherboard for $360, can anyone make me a build where everything is cheap, and leave out the CPU and motherboard?
