2k budget build help please

[Thronar]

Budget
$2000/2500 AUD (I doubt I'll need to spend this much tho)

Aim/Usage/Etc
To get the most out of my aus rog swift for the games I play (assume all the games I play are on high settings)

 

Games I want a mimimum 144fps on

dota, tf2, csgo

 

Games I want decent minimum fps on (60+) and dont mind having g sync on for them

rust, d3, poe, skyrim

 

Only games I can see myself caring about in the future are dayz standalone and overwatch, so keep that in mind.

 

Wont be overclocking

Single monitor

Doubt ill need more than 1 gpu for my current needs but I would like the ability to add another in the future if needed

Only need a 500gb ssd for storage

I plan on building this system in a nzxt h440

I would like it to be as quiet as possible

Dont need any peripherals

Dont need an OS

 

I cant think of any more info to give but if you have questions just ask

You can change colors and stuff to your liking.

 

I chose the 970 because, from the games you're playing the 970 would most likely be strong enough. Heavily modded skyrim can benefit from the CPU, you can opt for the weaker 5820k instead, its still a great 6 core.

Noctua cooler for silence, AIO coolers will never be as silent as air coolers. I personally like the look of noctua fans, but that's just my opinion, it looks better in person, alot of the people who complain never owned or even seen a noctua fan inside a system in person

 

 

 

if you don't follow you dont notifications.

Have a look at my thread, we have the same goals / budget. http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/268105-gaming-rig-first-build-rog-swift-i4790k-gtx-970-sli/

I live in australia hence the $AUD so that builds way over budget for me

Something like this ?

 

Even though you don't plan on overclocking it is worth going with the 'k' version for the higher clock speed.

 

Also there are no H97 boards that support SLI on pcpartpicker (From what I can see)

Lower the cpu to the 5820k, that should lower the price.

You don't need X99 for Gaming. 

[OhhTee]

You don't need X99 for Gaming.

Unless you're playing like 100 games at the same time.

Yeah that seems a lot better for my needs, any reason for a i7 and not an i5 tho?

Change it to an i5 if you feel you won't need an i7.

[Buuzze]

If you don't feel like going for a i7, i'd go for a i5. I have a i5-4690 (3.5GHz no clocking) and i'm VERY happy about it + only costed 188 euro.

For the other this: i agree with Lee if you want to spend that amount of money
