[ahsun_ahmed]

Hi this is actually my first post and i am finally getting my first gaming PC and i need some help to see if everything is compatible and will fit in my case. Things i am not sure are but is if the power supply will be enough and is my motherboard quad channel compatible and is everything going to fit in my case? As you can probably tell i am a complete noob and any help will be most appreciated. Any tips and ideas would be helpful thanks. The specs for my rig are:

Case - Corsair 750D

Power Supply - Corsair AX860 Modular 860 Watt 80 plus Platinum efficiency 

CPU Cooler - Corsair Hydro Series H110 140mm Liquid cooler

CPU Intel Core - i7 4770k 3.5ghz quad core LGA1150

Motherboard - Asus Maximus VI Extreme Socket 1150

Memory - Corsair 16gb Vengence 1600Mhz quad channel ddr3

GPU - 2  Nvidia Geforce GTX 770 2gb in sli

budget and location? use the quote button if you want me to get back to you

[tedjani]

we need your budget my friend and what are you using this pc for are you gaming on it in 1080P or 1440P

[wildy]

You need to tell us the budget but i would go for a powerfull gpu instead of sli with 2 gtx770

[Megazero]

I'm not sure what you mean by "PC Is called Viper "? Does this mean that this PC is pre-builded? if not I would recommend go for a single GPU rather than SLI. Also if you can give the location and budget it would help everyone to be able to make the best build with the available budget for you

[BloodWithIce]

Get a 780ti instead of the 770 sli. Also, get the h105 instead of the h110. Change the stock fans with push pull Gt's. Change the 2tb Green drive to a 2tb seagate SSHD 

[MexicanAnimal]

Holy crap, Maximus VI Extreme NO. just NO. WAAY unnecessary. If you really wanna go ROG go for a Hero, you won't be able to take advantage of all of the features unless you're doing liquid helium OC'ing or something, in which case by all means go for the Extreme. Go for a 780 TI instead of the 770's in SLI, like Linus, not a fan of dual-GPU configs, go for the highest end possible GPU, and if then you still need more juice, get another one then.

Isn't it the h105 better the h110

And isn't 2 gpu's better than one 780ti

[SAV1OUR]

sli has allot of issues because games arent optimized for duel gpus in some games you would be getting less frames with 2 gpus then 1

sorry i didnt notice the last line, but if you are able to customize it in anyway ditch the 16gb ram and the 4770k if its just for gaming get 8gb ram a 4670k and save some money or something and get sli 780s or something

@ahsun_ahmed 

What is the difference between 770 and 780TI 

Plus want two 770's be better in gaming compared to one 780ti

Should i get 3 x AMD R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 in Crossfire

or one GTX TI

[SAV1OUR]

id say a single 780ti

the 270xs are going to be louder hotter and draw more power

ok thanks

[BloodWithIce]

2 gpus: more performance, a lot of issues and some games will use only one. Single gpu: No issues, less performance $, quieter, cooler.

 

ok thanks

780Ti is alot faster than the 770, and if it's possible always goes for the 1 GPU solution, because not all game is optimized for SLI or Crossfire, so while some game have alot better fps, some will drop down, especially the game that just come out. With SAV1OUR's build it only cost you ~ 2200$, and your budget is 3500$ so you can always goes for 1 more 780Ti (around 800$ more), upgrade you HDD to 2-3TB or even better just change it to SSHD, or you could spend that extra money on keyboard/mouse or another monitor if you going for SLI.
