  1. Can I do it with 1 Red Pro (the main HDD) and one standard Red? The Red Pro being the replacement for the WD Black, and the red being the replacement to the Green?
  2. Well, I will be using this PC to make games on Steam, and if that goes well, I will have money to get something really powerful - I'm talking about the 5960X with a £1K - £2K custom water-cooling loop; and maybe 2 -3 Titan X's in SLI.
  3. Thanks for the really detailed reply! I would like to be using this PC for a good 2 - 3 years (or even less, depending on how successful my games are). I really do not want to go with used hardware; I want the peace of mind. I would also like to stick to the color scheme of red/black. Also, I was planning to Raid 1 the WD Black and the WD Green. Not only that, but also, I won't be upgrading this PC much, the biggest thing will probably more storage/RAM - so don't you think the PSU is a bit overkill? I will be keeping the RAM you gave me, but where is the black-colored crucial ballistic? It would match the build quite nicely - just checked PC Part Picker, and there is black HyperX memory, should I go for that?. For me, the motherboard isn't a good choice. I don't want to be running a high-end system in one of the cheapest motherboards, so I will be keeping the MSI X99S Gaming 7 Motherboard. Here is the updated list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/6bQsgs
  4. Hello guys, Earlier, I posted a thread on a PC I will be purchasing in a few months. And, a person suggested a different rig, for around the same price, which packed more of a punch. But now, I need to choose, this is where you guys come in. Which one should I choose? I will be using the PC for Medium/Heavy 3D Modeling/Rendering. As well as making detailed games using both Unreal Engine 4 and Unity 5. Also, I will be using Adobe CC (Creative Cloud). The most-used apps in Adobe CC will be: Premier Pro, Illustrator, Photoshop and After Effects. I will be trying to get a high - medium overclock. I will be playing games at 1440p, and want to record them at 1080/1440p; using Fraps/Dxtory, but later on I will be developing my own Screen Recorder. First PC: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/T9nBJx Second PC: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/RBFLnQ So, which one should I choose?
  5. Hello, I would just like to ask a question: can you put 2 2tb drives in raid 1, if they are from different brands? At the moment, I would like to have either: A 2tb Western Digital Black with a 2tb Western Digital Green drive, or a 2tb Seagate Barracuda with a 2tb Western Digital Green drive. Is it possible?
  6. What's wrong with the MSI Motherboard?
  7. That's where the First PC comes in.
  8. The money for the water-cooled PC is way too much! I will hopefully receive the money from actually making games.
  9. Also, if my games become successful, I will be getting something within the lines of this: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/wPxqgs It will also have a £1K - £2K custom water-cooling loop to get really high overclocks. It will be a workstation mostly, for making games in 4K.
  10. @Demons I guess your right; but I do want it to look somewhat presentable, like a random blue somewhere. I just made my own X99 system, is it good? http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/Fq6ZD3
  11. @Demons Yes, you are correct. But I do want to stick to the colour scheme of black/red... Also, later on the road, I will be getting a really-powerful X99 based PC using the money I will hopefully get by making games on the PC I will be getting. Which will also have a custom water-cooling setup.
