Upgrading for Black Friday/Monday
Budget $2000
Resolution 1080 is fine being able to go higher later
Games / Settings Desired Fallout 4 -ultra Batman Arkham Knight
Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc) no
Country canada
Parts that can be reused ram, hdd, case
Do you need an OS? no
Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)? None
Hoping my old case works, if not knowing of a good quiet one would be good
You didn't mention what ram and case you got, need to know tho i doupt ram would be re-used cause new gen uses ddr4 and you prob got ddr3. Either way you got budget for all of it anyway. You can re-use hdd maybe case if you let us know what it is. The folllowing should be more than enough for 1080p but if you want 1440p and since you got spare budget i would suggest going for 390X.

If you wanted a very quiet case, that would mean no window and i would look at Fractal Design R5. Its more expensive tho.
Thanks for the reply, the reused case would be a Sunbeam Transformer it is not quiet, sounds like a jet taking off when I power up.
Yeah get a proper case Either of the two i mentioned depending on how much you want to spend are on different lvl anyway.
