Corsair cx 600W

RAM 169 EUR

Corsair vengeance pro 1866 16GB 2X8

 

I know that the PSU is wrong, I need a more powerful one but haven't picked one yet so any suggestions on this? I probably will buy some fans too but same here didn't pick any yet so help me on this. 

 

for peripherals I chose these

I will use the pc for video/photo editing and gaming.

Budget for the PC is around 2000 EUR i don't mind 200 EUR more or less.                                                                                 

 

Thanks for help and advice.

Looking good to me, in reality a 600W might be able to do the trick, but just to be sure i would go with a 650W atleast.

Looks pretty great :D just saying there is a fault in your mathematics of ram you cannot have to even number that make an odd number
a multiple of eight using two is sixteen but nm

RAM

Corsair vengeance pro 1866 19GB 2X8

Apart from that your build should be pretty awesome :D might i suggest that if you are going for an nvidia graphics you wait till some of the newer graphics card from nvidia arrive codename maxwell

I will be using the computer for work for Gaming, video/photo editing, App development, work, ... all sorts of things. I'm a little over 2000 euro with the pc. I think I'm more or less on my max budget here. Like 2200 euro's on the pc.

Well, I don't know about over clocking, I have been working with mac for most of my live, I still like it (pls don't kill me) but I just need a windows for work and I want to change from playstation to pc gaming. It's a lot cheaper so my video editing and photo editing will go a lot faster too because of the better components. I'm not familiar with over clocking and I'm told its bad for your components, they have a shorter life span because of it.

I like it. But if you want help with other parts post your budget for the replacements. I could tell you something way out of your budget without knowing. Also, which Fractal Case? The White is 95 USD the Black Pearl and Titanium Grey are 109 USD and the White with window is 100 USD while Black Pearl is 90 USD and Titanium 110 USD. Really stupid how there is that much difference in freaking paint colors but of course the internet doesn't need to make sense.

Do you really expect me to know things? 


$25.67/$~2500 (Price changes hourly..) I'm 1/100th of the way there!

Eh, fair enough I suppose, your call. At the very least, you'll have the option to try it if you want to later on. I would still recommend a good SeaSonic PSU or something, something nice and quiet. Also, you could probably get a Seagate Barracuda 3 TB hard drive - it's 7200 rpm over the 5400 rpm WD green drives.

 

Do you have a specific budget in mind, btw?

I would go for the Corsair HX 750 modular PSU.  If it is for gaming mostly then an I5 4670K would be more than sufficient and will save you $100+.

 

If you are scared or not interested in Over Clocking then that big ass cooler is unnecessary.

 

Good luck...Fractal makes beautiful cases.

well I think even a corsair HX650/750 would do you good for a psu they are silver rated ^_^. I Love corsair I mostly use their stuff except for the sdd/headphone/psu as I use these Intel/Audiotech/seasonic.

 

pretty much everything else is gold.

 

although it depends but you can go with a gtx 780 instead of the Ti if it went over your budget or just junk that blue ray if you don't plan on using it.

 

for chassis I'm more into corsair xD but hey everyone has their own taste.

Live your life like a dream.

Well the case can change, but for that I would like to spend around 100 EUR. Not much more.

I'm from Belgium, Europe. I'm thinking about an online shop in the Netherlands called azerty, they seem to be a bit cheaper then the online store in Belgium an they have more options. If you know a good place in Europe let me know

I meant in terms of content. Are you editing youtube videos? Somewhat professional short films?
