Double checking Build

[EletricSpong3e]

So im building a computer for a friend And ive built my own computer before and it works perfectly fine I just need to double check to make sure everything works properly since its alot of responsibilty if i make a mistake. I am 99.9% sure it is all going to work fine. He tells me that he wants to go Sli in the future and add A sound card so thats why I picked a 850w psu just for some breathing room for upgrades and to feel safe. In the future he wants me to show him how to overclock so I Bought a Z series motherboard with the k Cpu but I didnt buy him a 3rd party cooler just yet cause he dosent want to OC for awhile and it will save him some money, with the stock heat fan until he wants to OC. So here is the Build:

 

CPU:Intel i5 4690k (LGA1150)

Gpu: Gigabyte Gtx 970

Motherboard:Z97-X gaming 5(LGA1150

Psu: Corsair cx850m

HDD: 1 2tb Western digital sata 3 6gps 7200 rpm

SSD: crucial m500 120gb

OD: DvD R/W

Ram: G.skill Ripjaws 8GB (2x4GB) 1866mhz

OS: Windows 8.1

Case: Sharkoon T9

Looks good, you could probably put the psu down to 750W tho

Maybe get the EVGA 750G2 power supply - you wont need 850 and I prefer EVGA.

[Enderman]

Looks good

[H4X3R]

EVGA G2 750W

SSD = MX100 instead

Case = S340 (70$) Enthoo Pro (100$)

[JoaoPRSousa]

Don't get that PSU. Get an EVGA 600B, it will suffice

 

Replace the M500 for a MX100, it's cheaper and still good.

 

I can't find a case

 

I think you can get a much better case BTW.

Thanks. I was thinking that maybe but the guy has alot of upgrade plans so I thought I might just want to be safe since its not my money.

I recommend this SSD http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148820 It is only a little bit more and has a lot more storage

trust me, he has a lotttt of extra watts even if he gets another 970

Are u sure? I suppose i could swap it out and buy a better SSD

yup 970s are super power efficient

Myabe i was just being a bit too cautions thanks everyone!

Haha thanks. :lol:

I suggest a 750w psu, a better case like the s340 (if he doesnt need odd support) or even better the enthoo pro and also another ssd, I think it was already mentioned in here
