First Build! Feedback Needed!

Naranjala

So I'm getting my new rig in about 2-3 months. I was wondering if the build I have here is any good, and if I can fit anything else into my budget (1000$) (Note: All im ordering is coming from CA NCIX.) (Note #2: Im using this strictly for gaming.)

 

- i5 3570k = $240

- Corsair Carbide 200R ATX case = $70

- CM Hyper 212+ = $30

- Sapphire Radeon 7770 = $150 

- Corsair TX750M PSU = $115

- ASUS P8Z77 -V LK = $145

- Corsair Vengeance Blue 8GB Ram = $65

- Samsung 840 Series 120gb SSD  = $100

- ASUS DRW-24B1ST = $25

-  And of course Windows 7 = $110 

 

This should equal up to about $1050ish. So if anyone could give me some parts the would be better, or an entire build that would be better, I'd really appreciate it!

 

Thanks! :D

I'd get a 7850 or 7870 personally.

Yeah get a 7870 or a 7950. Lower the PSU to a 650W and get a higher end card. The 7950 is $300 and is faster than a 680 and can be overclocked to be faster than a 7970.

Lower the PSU to a 650W and get a 7850 instead.
