How's this build?

Go to solution Solved by Johannes_Lazor,

Awesome! And I forgot something, since i'm quite nervous about building the pc, since it will be my first build, I want to make sure everything is correct. Are the parts that are listed on PCpartpicker correspond to the ones in this image? (I have to buy from Amazon as other retails don't ship to my location.) 

 

 

Yup, All looks right.

First off, Merry christmas everyone and hope you are all having a great time and sorry if this thread is in the wrong subforum.

How does this build look? What can it run? Thanks in advanced everybody smile.gif

And is it just me or will the graphics card not fit since the ram is below it? Idk

What do you mean the RAM is below it?

the black lanes is for the graphics card, the ram slots is located to the right of the cpu socket, it wont get it in the way its fine.

Like the Ram won't fit since it's located where the graphics card meets the socket? I'm not sure, i'm new to building pcs and stuff so take what I say with a grain of salt. :P

The layout is pretty standard. The graphics card will sit in the system like this.

Looks good, Everything will fit. You wont be doing any overclocking on that though, But it isnt needed.

I dont even think there is a motherboard with ram slots that interrupt the GPU, It is more common for the SATA ports to interrupt it though.

Oh right, thanks guys for the fast responses considering it's Christmas, much appreciated. So one last question, what do you think the parts i've chose will be able to run? Thanks again everyone :)

You will be able to run pretty much Anything at High/Ultra with 50+ if not 60+ fps at all times.

Well, the hard drive will be sitting in a housing. Not exposed like that. As far as I know, everything should arrive just like that.
