yep, it just sux you can't look to the sides

so true, sucks you can only slightly move the camera like 1 inch side to side

if they gave you the ability to view your sides...... driving would be :banderas: wish they gave you a rear view mirror inside the whip in that driving view.......... no need to press button to look back :noah:

Yeshua’s Kingdom….BX here on Earth
Looking to join the PC master race, Got a budget of $500 (willing to get close to 600 if needed). From what i've researched best way to go is AMD in my price range. Pretty much want to use this for gaming, watching movies, basically my entertainment center. Instead of getting a ps4 or xbox one I decided on buliding something, some questions tho Do I go with the fx-8320 or just ride out with the fx6300 and spend the extra cash on the graphics card? Just need something to get started for right now thats easy on the eyes, plan on upgrading to a ssd in due time. any help is much appreciated, thanks brehs.:salute:

Make sure the motherboard you get will allow you to upgrade your cpu...know the socket of the cpu you want now and the cpu you want down the line, this will save you allot of headaches.

The motherboard you're getting is most likely going to be an AM3+ socket type so an FX-8320 would be ideal. It is way faster than the CPU's in PS4/XB1 and it has slightly better passmark scores to an i5-3570K. FX6300 is good too. My cousins rig I built has that in it and on stock speeds with 8GB ram and a 2GB GTX 660, he gets 35-40fps on high settings for Watch Dogs @ 1080p.

AMD for sure in that price range. I can hook you up with a 750W PSU, an AM3+ Mobo and 8GB 1866 DDR3 RAM for $160 shipped. PM me if interested

After that? I would probably try to go with AMD to crossfire since AMD boards don't support SLI. A Radeon 270X is what you should be looking at for your GPU. The FX-8320 is a safe bet for the CPU along with a 500GB HDD and a 128GB SSD :win:

$600 is going to be tight, but you will have a rock solid build that you can expand upon in the future :obama:

Welcome to the master race...once you join you won't ever accept 720p30 :scusthov:

Cases??? What's the benefits of these more expensive cases? are they just better use of the room inside them?

room for more hard drives.
space for todays rather large GPU's.
room for custom cooling fans or liquid cooling.
better air circulation.
pretty lights.
