List:

CPU Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core $209.99 CPU Cooler NZXT Kraken X60 98.3 CFM Liquid $119.99 Motherboard Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87 ATX LGA1150 Combo or $157.99 Memory A-Data XPG V2 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 $77.21 Storage A-Data Premier Pro SP900 128GB 2.5" SSD $69.99   Seagate Barracuda 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM $82.98 Video Card Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 3GB WINDFORCE $499.99 Case NZXT Phantom 630 Windowed Edition (Black) ATX Full Tower Combo or $139.99 Power Supply XFX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V $99.99 Optical Drive LG GH24NSB0 DVD/CD Writer $14.99 Operating System Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit) $89.99 Monitor Asus VG248QE 24.0" $269.99 Case Fan NZXT FX-140LB 98.3 CFM 140mm $13.98   NZXT FX-140LB 98.3 CFM 140mm $13.98 Keyboard Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013 $124.99 Mouse Razer Taipan Wired Laser $64.99 Custom NZXT HUE RGB Led Controller

$29.94

 

My location is Malaysia, and my budget is around 2000 dollars so if there is something i add or remove anything i can add to this system please feel free to say so.

The reason i am building this is because i want a powerful pc to do moderate video editing and gaming such as battlefield 4, titanfall, and counter strike global offensive.

Im big fan of Windows 8 and Razer Stuffs :3 and colorful LED

This is my first build ^_^

I added 2 case fans for the radiator cuz i heard you can get better performance with 4 fans.


I appreciate any feedback , or comments you have on my part selection.

Yeah, everything seem good as far as I can tell. But why didnt you choose a LED case fan if you like LED that much?

maybe go with other more silent fans such as Be quiet or corsair sp, also im not sure how the OEM version works, if its just upgrade or new install and then i think its a one time install meaning you need to buy it again if you need to reinstall, while i have heard some use the xfx psu, i would switch to a corsair or be quiet or seasonic

+1 for this build

The 2014 razer editions are out, make sure you get those instead.

Also, why not get the 3TB barracuda it's more or less 15$ more than the 2tb. It's the lowest price/gb drive ATM.

Also, I prefer the 840 evo, or the m500 line of SSDs

I have the vg248qe and unless you're going to be doing competitive FPS gaming, then I'd suggest a better 60hz IPS panel. The color quality on the vg248qe is good considering it's a TN panel, but the IPS displays just look so much more rich and vibrant.

He wanted that monitor so I give it to him, and so was the HDD, Keyboard and mouse. I did go for this cheap SSD because the EVO would be out of the budget big time!

M500 is an additional 4$, and the 840 EVO is an additional 10$

5-10$ shouldn't be too far of a stretch considering the budget
