i read that it had loud stock fans and i plan on buying some other quieter fans to use with it but that remains to be seen at the moment and the motherboard is black and red so i will be using that as my theme i believe things are still on the drawing board at the moment so i could change providing its not stupid extreme price difference

i believe if im not mistaken they are these 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws-X F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL 1600MHX DDR3 i thought the h100i was going to be overkill but i figured that if i was going to try and keep it quiet when it needs to be then that would be a good option and not only that but when i do decide to overclock then i wont have to go out and buy a new cooler

the budget i would say all in all is roughly £900 but that has to include a new monitor and keyboard, i live in the UK and mainly gaming to be honest

Hi guys, this is my first time posting on the forums and i hope that you will be able to help me so i have been an AMD user until now, i am going to change my system up due to some money coming my way and well just because i want to my current system is as follows CPU - AMD Phenom x6 1090t black edition CPU cooler - ​Antec kuhler Flow cooler RAM - G.skill 8GB SSD - 240GB Corsair force GPU - Gainward NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti Artic blue 850W psu thats my current sytem give or take a few items i.e harddrive etc. ive built it over the course of time and is sort of my first build for my self that i game on recently i decided that i wanted to upgrade and its been a while since i last looked for parts etc and my brain started to ache haha, after about 2 weeks of scouring and searching i think that i have a basic build for myself here are the parts that i have come up with so far Intel Core i5 4670k MSI Z87-G45-gaming Corsair Vengeance pro series 8GB Corsair H100i either the carbide 500r or nzxt phantom of some description still unsure as for GPU im waiting until after AMD gpu unveil on 25th and then go from there but i am open to suggestions as long as its not ridiculous what i would like to know from you knowledgeable bunch is, is this going to be a good system for me? i will be mainly gaming with some basic office work. i play a variety of games such as BF3, LoL, ARMA 2 - 3, SimCity etc you get the picture i ideally would like to not spend more than about £220 on the gpu but if its worth the extra i may be able to stretch a little bit. so again, 1. is this a good first intel build for myself 2. what would you change and why you should also know aswell that i will not be overclocking straight away but i am contemplating having a dabble with it when i feel more comfortable hence the k series intel, ive also chosen haswell because i would ideally like to keep the system for about 2 years or more. thanks for any response and please be gentle im new to the intel scene.
