What Monitors do you have?

Do you plan to OC?

Will you want to SLI in the future?

Will you use Liquid Cooling?

2 1080p 60hz monitors, only going to gaming on one

water cooling to expensive maybe in the future with another build

Sli is a mere possibility depends on how much money is available, would be nice to have those capabilities just in case

I also plan to stream so I might need more than the pentium aniversary edition

and yes I will OC 

Thanks for your help Im doing this to help my friend get out of the consoles

This Xeon I gave you is a basically a i7 4790 without the iGPU.

 

I'm sorry I got the wrong Xeon this is the Xeon E3-1220 V3  not the Xeon E3-1230 V3, the processor I gave it basically and i5 4670 -underclocked- not the i7 4790.

Huh?  I don't get what you are saying?

The i7 4790 has a locked multiplier so you can't OC that why I said the i7 4790 not the i7 4790K.

This is what i would build around 700 bucks if the main focus was Gaming.

The AMD based one is more aimed towards Overclocking. The Intel based one is made for simply standing there.


It is a AMD based build that is mainly Black-Blue theme.
