My first build - Compatible? Good?

[MaltDew]

Hey

 

Okay, so I've decided to try to build my very own PC, and I want something that's capable of playing games on ultra, and something that's upgradable.

 

Here's my build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/6nqVGX

 

As I'm new to PC-building, my questions are:

 

- Is this a good build?

- Should I go with the new motherboard chipset instead of the VI Formula

- Are all the parts compatible

 

I'm planning on going SLI at some point in the future, when I feel the need is there.

 

Hope you guys can help me

1. This build looks pretty sweet

2. maybe you should w8 for devils canyon

3. Yes all are compatible

-Yes

-Doesn't matter

-Yes

 

I'd like to mention that the Maximus VI Hero should also suit your needs, and is cheaper. Take a look at that if you'd like. If you still want the features of the Formula, go for it, great board

it will work but you overspending on the Mobo. Something like the MSI Z97 G45 gaming mobo should already satisfied all your need at half the cost of the Maximus. Also, get a 4790k instead of a 4770k~

@MaltDew Get a 4790k instead, better thermals for overclocking.

Pick up a Maximus VII Ranger, ROG looks much cheaper price.

Would allow you to get an AX760 to keep with the color scheme.

Why wouldn't you?

 

Also by the time you need to SLI you're probably going to be better off buying a brand new single card anyway which is why most people that say they're going to SLI never do

Cheaper with better quality and performance.

Thanks for the help, guys.

 

I think I'll go with this build, as Willson suggested: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/qzdtK8

 

It looks pretty solid + it's a bit cheaper

 

Again, thank you!

@Willson94 But do the Maximus VII Hero have WiFi, or do I need a card for that. In that case, what WiFi-card should I choose?

[Willson94]

@MaltDew Have a look on Amazon for pci-e wifi cards. I use a TP-Link one when I have to but I hear Asus and Intel also have some good offerings
