1200$ build

[Atomiccupcakes]

I don't know too much about what goes good with what on a computer all I know is that I would like an Intel build that will be upgradeable into the future

I need an os

I don't exactly want to go too much over budget

Thanks

What exactly would you like to do with it?

I'm assuming gaming but this is quite adequate for most things. If you need to do rendering/editing/other workstation stuffs, you can bump up to 16gigs of ram/xeon e3 1230 v2 and still stay within budget.

You need to give a permalink. What you gave redirects to the clicker's own saved list.

Psu is a bit overkill. You can run a 7970 off of a 600w. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-cx600m

I also wouldn't get Cooler master psus if I had better alternatives. Mainly Seasonic, antec, corsair, xfx, etc.

He said upgradable so I thought you might as well prepare.

A single card shouldn't run more than a 600w. For sli/crossfire, you'd want a 750w.
