Help with a pc build

[Krisman99]

Hi all of you, im planing on building my first pc and i want some help with what i should buy. I have 1960 USD to spend, and im only going for raw performance, so i dont care if its gonna be loud. The only thing i know i want in the build is the nzxt Phantom case.

What will you be playing?
Do you need peripherals, monitor, OS?

Will you be just playing games, or doing video editing, etc?

Do you have a preference to the number of monitors?

 

I think there's a sticky in this sub forum that'll have a list of questions that'll help us help you.

 

Welcome to the forum

This will do more than what you want, under budget too. It is red/black themed, so it will look nice as well

Change CPU cooler to a NZXT X60 and go for it!

[Krisman99]

Thanks for the help but i live in Denmark, so it costs to much sadly

[Guest GRRigger]

Everyone buy h100 and then complain about noise. Then buy different fans.

 

4670k + noctua / bequiet 

8gb ram, whatever you want. id recommend cheapest heatsinked one like balistix low profile ( clearance )

z87 mobo, msi / gigabyte

seagate barracuda if its cheaper than caviar blue

ssd 128gb from samsung or cruicial, see if you can fit 256

780 from gigabyte / msi / asus / evga whatever is cheapest aftermarket cooler

also check prices on aftermarket 290x

case? personal preference up to your needs. id say haf 912 for price and airflow

oh you want phantom ok

psu something from seasonic or xfx 600w - 700 w

[Krisman99]

Right now i have this build in mind.

 

case: NZXT Phantom

Motherboard: Gigabyte G1.Sniper B5

CPU: Intel Core i5 4570

Graphics Card: Evga gtx 780 ti SuperClocked

Power Supply: Corsair CX750M

SSD: Samsung 840 Evo 120GB

Hard Drive: WD Blue 1TB

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

 

Is it a okay build?

[Guest GRRigger]

Right now i have this build in mind.

Power Supply: Corsair CX750M

Not the best psu. Even 550 or 600w will do tho. Rather get like seasonic with lower wattage.

[Krisman99]

okay so a seasonic power supply, but is the rest okay?

[Oshino Shinobu]

okay so a seasonic power supply, but is the rest okay?

Yeah, it seems pretty good. Any decent PSU, preferably with gold rating. Seasonic are good, but they're quite expensive. The EVGA Nex650G is pretty good, and you can order it from EVGA without customs fees if you can't find one where you live. Something like the Corsair RM650 is good too, but there are better ones out there. You could get away with a 550w if you wanted to. 

[Krisman99]

Okay thanks alot for the help, and i thing im gonna go with my setup with another power supply:D
