Need planned build checked

But the 780 will be cheaper in 2-3 years

 

In 2-3 years, at the rate hardware develops, there will probably be something out there that is better and probably cheaper or the same amount than going SLI'ed 780s.

Rightio, I'll just stick to what I've got now then. :)

You could go with a 600w psu. There's a trend of gpu/cpu's using less power. If you're not going to sli, something like a cx600 should do.

I'll just stick with the 750w, only $10 more than the 600w ver.

Just wondering, would it be better to get a single 8gb memory or dual 4gb memory?

Dual channel 2x4gigs can be up to 50% faster than a single channel 8gig stick.

I've been given some extra money, is there any improvements I could get with $200-$400 more from PCCG?  I've already purchased the motherboard(G1 sniper m5) and GPU from NCIX.
 

 

 

I've changed-

• RAM: Corsair CMX8GX3M2A2000C9 8GB
• CPU: 4770k
• PSU: Xigmatek Vector G 750W 80+ Gold

anything else?

So, what case have you decided on?

[yuh25]

I decided to stick with the Corsair 350D

Here's a photo of my finished build, thanks guys so much for helping me out =)




Unfortunately I'm currently away from the desktop so I can't take any better photos. I was thinking of putting in white(?) LED strips and I was just wondering the length of strip would be good for the 350D.
