Hey guys

 

I am building a new computer. The goal of the build is to make something small that has a lot of processing power for gaming and taking to lans. At the moment I have already ordered a few different parts and plan to order more.

 

Parts i have already paid for but have not yet taken delivary on so can change if needed.

-Fractal Design node 804.

-Asus Maximus VII Gene.

-Intel i7-4790k

-Corsair AX-1200i

-32gb of Corsaid Vengeance C9 1600mhz

 

Parts i am considering buying unless i am talked out of it.

-Plextor M6e PX-G512M6e M.2 2280 512GB for the OS and any storage (Going to be using my nas for anthing over 512GB).

-2 x R9 295x2.

-Water cooling components and Nocuta fans.

-10GBE card if i can find a PCI-E v2 4x card.

 

I plan on watercooling the cpu and gpus (going to remove stock watercoolers and build a custom loop). I plan on using 1 x 280 rad and 1 x 240 rad for the watercooling. I am not sure if there is going to be enough rad space to keep it all cool.

Any comments, suggestion or feed back on things would be great.

 

Thanks.

Hey Altecice thanks for your feed back.

 

I agree with the ram being too much for gaming but i got it for my epeen :)

The 10GBE card is only for connecting with my home network and working with remote files I dont see it changing the latency while gaming.

In order to fit the GPUS i need to remove the front fan from the case.
