New Build

[DarkLordDylan]

So I'm building a new system for gaming purposes and I do plan to overclock the CPU and maybe even a little on the GPU. I can't decide on a motherboard and if you guys have any suggestion for modifications to the build, let me know. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/zZPNsY

Hi, i am 14 years old and  this is my build and i think it is fine for you to follow it:

I bought everything brand new from amazon:

 

GPU:

Gigabyte gtx 980 G1 Gaming 4gb

(Better not to go to the gtx 970 due to the 50 usd increase cost and some games do not run as well as one gpu compared to your sli configuration)

 

 

CPU: i5-4670k 3.5 ghz (Prefer for you to go with the i5-4690k)

 

Water Cooler:

Cooler Master Seidon 120mm

 

PSU:

EVGA 850w supernova b2 (your psu is underpowered just go for the 850w)

 

HDD:

Seagate Barracuda 2TB 6gb/s

 

Motherboard:

MSI z87m Gaming

 

Ram:

2 of Cosair Vengance 4gb 

 

Case:

Nanoxia Deep silence 4

I wouldn't use the GTX 900's they aren't as good. Their performance is right between the 770 and 780. I would get the 780ti

The 980 performs better than a 780ti according to Anandtech benchmarks.
