Project titlepending (Naming open for suggestions)

Fleutius

This will be the first build I have done in quite some years, but I hope that you will like the result.

The name for the PC, is yet to be found, but I feel that it would be perfect for the community to have a part in this, so if you have a suggestion, you are welcome to write it in a comment.

 

The colour scheme will be the good old Black/Red, that we all know (and at least I love ;) )

 

Disclaimer: This build has been given a very strict budget, and I have optimised a lot of the components for performance, and not all looks, take for example the case, it is not the most pretty case in the world (But I do however like the look of it). It was chosen for the low price, reasonable airflow options, and cable management for  the price. I am sure that there was better options out there, but this was the case that I went with.

 

I am fully aware that a 750 watt PSU, is over the  top when there is only going a single 970 GPU in the system, but the PSU was bought before the new 900 series from Nvidia came out, and I will have more than enough power, to expand the system to a second 970 in the future

 

 

Main Components:

Case - Corsair Carbide Spec-03
CPU - Intel core I5 4690k
Motherboard - MSI Z97 Gaming 3
Memory - Corsair Vengeance Pro 1866MHZ 2x8GB
GPU - MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G
SSD - Crucial MX100 256Gb

PSU - Corsair RM750

CPU Cooler - Phanteks PH-TC12DX Red

The Spec 3 looks like one... Especially with the red/orage LEDs...

Update: Got the pictures of the parts that have arrived into the spoiler.

The CPU and HDD are on route, and should be delivered within a few days.

The GPU will be ordered on wednesday, so with a bit of luck, it should arrive early next week, and the assembly can begin.

Eureka! I actually managed to get a hold of a MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G that should be at my door early next week.

Some times you just got to get lucky, seeing that most suppliers here in Denmark have up to 21 days waiting time.
