My Future Build

[cachowww]

Hey, everyone. I am planning to build my first pc ever and was wondering whether or not my build at the moment is good or not -> https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/user/benjmg/saved/bxTdmG (yes I know the case and psu prices are rubbish so im going to wait until they drop). My only real concerns with my build are the psu whether or not its enough wattage and is a good psu, and my storage whether or not 480gb would be necessary or anything else you guys spot that u think I should change ill 100% take into consideration! any help would be great, thanks!

Hey, your build is looking great. What do you intend to use it for? Most likely gaming? All your parts are looking good but I wouldn't recommend getting Win10 for retail prices because Windows is a huge rip off. You'll save a lot by getting it from one of those resellers. 480gb is probably more then enough especially since you threw in that hard drive. I am using a 120gb ssd and it's pushing the limits but it's enough as long as you put games and other large files on the hard drive. Other then that, great build and enjoy

haha hey cheers man. I'll probably be storing my games and windows on my ssd just for faster boot times so that's why I opted for the 480gb instead of the 240gb for the extra $40. I was also thinking about getting windows off a reseller but im not sure where to look for ones that are legit and also don't really want to be buying ones that stop working after a year!! so will probably have to stick with the legit windows for $190

just get a grey key.

 

from keysites like kinguin or ebay. people generally dont like these keys a lot due to the ethicallity behind them, but its the cheapest offerings. 

 

also i tidies up the build in the other thread.

One of the worst 5700XT models. The Sapphire Pulse is only $23 more and is a better version.
