Gaming Build First Build

[ELiiMiNaTioN]

Want to play games like BF4, Crysis, Metro etc.

 

Have 16gb even though I know its overkill, just don't want to worry about it in the future or anything. ( If i ever wanted to stream and record with fraps nothing major)

You can't run crysis 3 on ultra, just a btdubs, everything else is flawless

[Bluethulhu]

Are you just purely gaming or are you doing anything else like using video editing/photo editing/3D modeling?

Just get 2x4 GB, you can get more down the road. Use saved money for case fans.

Thanks for letting me know, I wouldn't mind if crysis wasn't completely maxed

The H100i will not fit in the Shinobi case at the top. The power supply is too large for a single gpu system. 16GB is overkill, but that's ok if you want to spend the money. I've made a few changes all with the aim of having the budget include an IPS monitor.

Thanks for the build, never new that the h100i couldn' fit. Even if there was some crazy way it could I think im gonna look into other cases like the Define R4 and ones that like similar to it.

 

Reason for the psu of 750w for possible sli and OC but I doubt I would sli, so 600w with OC would be more then enough?

Yes, 600W should be fine with an overclock and single gpu.
