First Gaming PC $1000-1200 AUS

[rickiain]

I plan to use this for gaming moderately, editing videos and pictures and assignments. Going to use two 24" 1080p monitors (already acquired) and using windows 8 (not listed as I can get it at student discount). Just wanted to see if anyone could see if this would all be compatible and it would all fit inside the case nicely and if 600w will be enough power? I was also told that even though the motherboard can only take 1600Mhz it's good to get 1866Mhz memory. All these prices are in AUS $$. Not looking for my parts changed just a check that everything will fit and have enough room.

but will my original build fit? will it have enough power and space, will it all work together well?

[SAV1OUR]

but will my original build fit? will it have enough power and space, will it all work together well?

it will all work but the haswell refresh is just poor in my opinion the prior 4670k and 4770k are better 

[EricPont]

http://au.pcpartpicker.com/parts/partlist/

this build will perform much better and only $1258

and can be overclock if you choose 

i know you didn't want to have different build but atleast give it a look

you will not be disappointed and if you had more money to spend you could get a r9 290 only 120 more dollars http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=26600

[EricPont]

you could also get a corsair 200r instead is only $85 and fits any parts in

Just in budget.

You linked the partlist page not the permlink, can't see the parts.

[EricPont]

also if you wanted to save some more money you could also remove the after market cooler which is $39 

[EricPont]

cpu: fx 8350 $239

cpu cooler: hyper 212 evo $39

motherboard: gigabyte 970a $109

ram: g.skill areas 2x4 8gb 1866 $99

ssd: samsung evo 120gb $99

hdd: 1tb wd blue $67

gpu: xfx r9 280x $329

case cooler master storm scout 2 $115

psu: corsair pro 650w 80+ gold semi modular $139

optical drive: lg dvd/cd reader and writer $23

$1258

can decrease price by getting corsair 200r $85 instead of other $115

and by removing aftermarket cpu cooler deacreasing price by $39

this will perform much better and if you wanted more power you could 

get r9 290 instead for $120 more
