Is this a good build?

Is this a good build for some mild gaming? Could I play games like BF4, Skyrim, and Titanfall on high settings with a decent frame rate? If I had to, I could do a overclock on the cpu. I'm sticking with the Prodigy M as the case because I love the design and the size.

its alright but you could give us a better idea if you were to follow the outlines please

The Corsair fans aren't supposed to be that good, at least that is what I read.

 

Never mind, the link at amazon.de brought me to the no quiet edition. Sorry

[troubleddoge]

Any better fans that are still pretty quiet?

Looks fine, except it will be a tight fit with the CM Hyper 212 Evo in the prodigy. I have the prodigy and there isnt a ton of room. I went with an H80i which is great. I can't suggest another cooler that would fit better. You could try it and see if it fits.

Corsair fans rock. They looks good and are fairly quiet.

So an Athlon X4 760K overclocked is still a decent gaming cpu for games that have maxed out settings?

I think a 750 Overclocked is a better choice unless of course you find the 760 cheaper

Yes corsair fans airflow quiet edition are great bang / buck.

it falls behind in cpu intensive games, but its still ok. usually its better to go with 6300 or I3

Also dont get so many fans. The most you will need is 2 for the front and two for the back/cpu cooler. I went with a Bitfenix Specter 230mm for the front and 2 Corsair SP Quiet editions for the radiator exhaust.

Its only five dollars more and it has a high clock speed.

Why the Corsair SPs over the AFs?

The difference is 5 bucks and the 760k is a better architecture.

oh I wasn't aware

I also have the prodigy and the CM Hyper 212 Evo fits fine

PCPartpicker gives a warning about removing drive bays to fit the gpu I picked. How can you remove drive bays on the Prodigy M?

[flibberdipper]

Less fans, better memory, and Samsung SSD.

Quote the post you are responding to. If you are referring to the FX6300 You woudl need a different Mobo. FM3+

Ok I wasn't sure.

Static Pressure vs Air Flow. SP is better for Radiators and CPU Heatsinks. AF is better for general airflow.

Better memory?

Isnt it just trinity without igpu? And overclocked?

Corsair Vengeance is cheap and reliable (imo).
