My first pc build

cops19
 Share
Go to solution Solved by Clyne,

the case seemed really easy to install parts in for a first time builder and its at a good price

Corsair 200R is fine, i was going with 300R but i went with a 750D instead. 

Posted

I was curious if this is any good of a build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/78nzrH. I know how to build a pc but i was curious if this would be easy to setup and build or if it would be difficult. And I was wondering if it is possible to overclock with this build.

Change the PSU to an EVGA 550/650W GS/G2. Also change the GPU to an R9 390; better performance at the same price. Looks good other than that.

Skip the fan and use the savings to get a better power supply.

Other than that, looks good.

$1500 build in my sig will completely destroy that. I can downgrade a couple things to make it $1400. (Gimme a sec).

 

Edit: Here ya go.

 

 
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor  ($328.99 @ SuperBiiz) 
Motherboard: ASRock Z97 PRO4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard  ($104.98 @ Newegg) 
Storage: OCZ ARC 100 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive  ($54.01 @ Amazon) 
Case: NZXT Source 210 Window ATX Mid Tower Case  ($44.99 @ Newegg) 
Total: $1412.04
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

Same price, WAY better performance. The only thing that would be better would be a 250GB 850 EVO like you had and a bigger cooler (although the Hyper 212 EVO is not bad).
 
 
DAMN! I see you have a monitor and stuff included as well. Here:
 
 
1. Change the GTX 970 to an R9 390.
2. Change PSU to a SuperNOVA G2/GS 650W.
3. Get rid of that fan, kind of unnecessary.
4. Get rid of the DVD drive, it's useless at this point.

Would like to point out, that the 980TI will block some of hard drive bays with that case.

Well, i know that will work but just want to point out but your build configuration is definitely great with that 980TI and with that i7 4790k it can last a while.

Yeah I had a thread going so I could give quick builds to people at their budget. Works pretty well, I have to update them a lot. I think that's the best it gets for $1400.

Well the one I gave you there doesn't include the monitor or keyboard. But it will perform much better.

Well if you have a monitor and keyboard, use them. I would much rather put money into the parts than into peripherals, and buy them later. I can put in a wireless adapter for you, however I do recommend Ethernet instead:

 

 
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor  ($328.99 @ SuperBiiz) 
Motherboard: ASRock Z97 PRO4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard  ($94.99 @ Micro Center) 
Storage: OCZ ARC 100 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive  ($54.01 @ Amazon) 
Case: NZXT Source 210 Window ATX Mid Tower Case  ($44.99 @ Newegg) 
Wireless Network Adapter: TP-Link TL-WN881ND 802.11b/g/n PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter  ($18.99 @ Amazon) 
Total: $1421.04

You can even change out the case for one that you like. I just threw that in to save costs.
