Good Build for OverClocking ?

[MrLegendQC]

Hi ! 

I'm planning to build a PC for gaming in 2-3 months and I'm going to overclock it and I was asking myself if it was a great build so here I come !

It will be mainly for gaming and browsing Internet.

I'm in Canada.

My budget is 1250$ CAD,can be 5-10 $ over it.

That builds pretty good... I would say if you're gaming you could get more performance out of a 280 for less. everything else is fine

The 750 watt PSU seems a bit over kill maybe get something modular like the CX600m, I have one and in my system I have a r290 with a i5 4670k OC'd. Then you could get a better cooler and get more overclocking for your buck.

It's good. Maybe switch the Intel SSD to a Crucial MX100?

I don't know much about SSD and I heard Intel's were great.

I took the 128GB Crucial MX100.

There isn't really a big difference in SSD performance. The Crucial MX100 would be the best bang for your buck.

The Corsair Hyrdo h55 is a pretty good cooler for the price and I use it with my i5.

Is the H60 better?

[colec18]

Is the H60 better?

Yeah, but when I built my PC they were a lot more for some reason but now they're not much more, so that would also be a great choice.
