All black rig

[gadgetguy99]

I am aiming to build my next rig all blacked out. This will be used for autocad, 3d modeling and some gaming

 

CPU- intel xeon 1231V3

MOBO- msi z97 sli krait edition (I plan on covering the white with black vinyl wrap)

GPU- Asus gtx 970 strix or quadro k2000 (all i really play is civ5 csgo and skyrim)

CPU cooler- noctua nh-d15 (replace stock fans with noctua redux fans)

Ram- corsair vengence black 16gb

SSD- Samsung 850 evo 250Gb (also will reuse my ssdnow v300)

HDD- reuse my seagate 500gbs

PSU- corsair hx750Ii

Case-Fractal define r5 (will vinyl wrap all white parts)

 

any ideas on what i can add besides an os

dont get the quadro

[soaringchicken]

Looks good, and quadro seems like the best option if you are only doing light gaming

Stick with the 970 strix.

Or better yet, buy a reference design and tear out the plasti-dip.

the cryorig R1 ultimate fits your theme better

the quadro is super overpriced because of validation and stuff, for people who need their operations to never ever ever ever ever ever fail.

No quadro, that GPU is used for mostly rendering not for gaming purposes. Otherwise, pretty good.
