First pc build need help :)

[Santho]

So i saved up some money for my first pc build, so what i need help with is basically component compatibility and if all would even fit in the case I've chosen.

 

Case - Corsair carbide air 540.

Power suply - CORSAIR CX 750W M BRONZE ATX12V 2.3 MODULAR PSU

CPU - INTEL CORE I7 4790K 4.0GHZ 8MB S-1150

CPU Cooler - NZXT Kraken x60 280mm

SSD - INTEL 530 120GB SATA SSD MLC BULK (i will use this for my OS drive)

HDD - SEAGATE SV35 2TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA/600

GPU - EVGA GEFORCE GTX 780 TI SC 3GB (considering buying a "Kraken G10" and puting on a Corsair H75 or H105)

Motherboard - ASUS Maximus VI Hero Z87 S-1150

RAM - Crucial DDR3 Ballistix Tactical 16GB

 

I know it might be a hopeless question but will all this fit/work together?

It would be better getting a newer Z97 motherboard, otherwise you would have to update your UEFI to be able to use that processor.

 

Also, a bit better power supply would be also welcome.

i have a cx 750m and it makes a lot of coil whine. if it will bother you, you might want to switch psu

[WoodenMarker]

Yes, everything is compatible.

Coil whine can happen to any psu. There are many cx750m's without it.

Hmm. Ok so maybe just upgrading to ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO Z97 S-1150 ATX, and upgrading the PSU to a CORSAIR RM SERIES 850W GOLD MODULAR PSU (Would this PSU be enough for a possible SLI config in the future?)

 

[WoodenMarker]

No it isn't. 

yes it is

Could use some sources here...

A good 750w is already plenty for sli.

Also, will the Air 540 case fit A 280mm rad in the top and a 280mm rad at the front ?

[Guest]

yes it is

I guess Jonnyguru must be wrong as well  :rolleyes:

Those look very good. You could do SLI with 750 watts, you can't get a too big power supply though.

Ok thax all
