With the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and now, apparently, the long-rumored Steam Box looming just over the horizon, the average system requirements for AAA PC games is about to spike. Whether you're looking stay in the game, or just need to update an old toaster, right now is a great time to look at a new PC build.
Available right now, Stasis: Bone Totem from Feardemic looks to deliver a mysterious new gaming experience to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch
IGN : Remember Hellgate: London? The dark fantasy action role-playing game came out in 2007 for PC, a year before developer Flagship Studios went bankrupt. Since then, various free-to-play and online revivals have come and gone. Now, 17 years after the release of Hellgate: London, it’s back.
Digital Foundry : We're rounding off our coverage for Horizon Forbidden West's impressive PC port with a look at optimised settings, how they stack up against PlayStation 5 and what kind of performance wins you should expect.

-___- I got one too. Its called a PS4. $400. Really $421.62 if you include state tax.
I'm building a gaming PC and Getting a PS4.
who would spend only 700 on a gaming PC, that kinda lame. Should spend at least 2000 on it, if you really want one that will play most games.
You're not going to get 60FPS with a HD7790 at 19x10. They quoted the FPS rate when FXAA is used. What's the point of bumping up to Ultra quality for your textures if you're just going to get blurred textures cause of the post-processing FXAA? You might as well should bump down the textures to High or Medium and stick with MSAA and spare your GPU the wasted effort. Besides, why run FXAA on a AMD GPU?
Frankly, if you are gaming at 19x10: those small jaggies are nothing compared to playing at 12x7 or 14x9 such that you can settle for either 2x MSAA or even no AA at 19x10.
You can maybe save some money on the motherboard+CPU if you decide to go with the FM2 socket and go the APU route. Since the list doesn't include the usage of a SSD: no point in investing in the 970 chipset. The Hudson D4s should be good enough for most gaming applications for the passing PC gamer: which is what this article seems to be aiming at.
OMG, here comes the PS4 v. PC debacle.
That PC is not going to garner 1080p/60fps in Ultra settings on BF4; I'm sorry but just no, especially with post-processing FXAA enabled. Spare that crap GPU and keep it at mid-high settings so as to retain high-quality textures.
