PC build help

[Aren]

Hey guys,

I am kinda a PC newbie and yesterday I put together some pc parts that may or may not work together. From the specs It said it should all work together but I don't know. This is supposed to be a bang-for-your-buck dual CPU machine.         Here are the parts:

 

Cpu: i7 4790k x2 600$

Gpu: EVGA gtx 980 classified 600$

Motherboard: ASUS lga2011 Intel c602 530$

Ram: Kingston hyperx 8 gigs ddr3 x2 140$

Case: Deepcool tesseract 28$

Cpu cooler: Corsair h110 x2 220$

Hdd: Seagate sshdd 4t 200$

Power brick: Rosehill bronze 130$

2,448$ Total

 

Please tell me any other things I may need to construct this pc and if this pc will work! Thank you

Use PCpartpicker, You will be able to find the best deals and it is also quick to use.


BTW, Your location is actually kinda our business, We dont know what prices hardware goes for where you live otherwise, Or what currency you use, Euro, USD, CAD, SEK, NOK, etc

I agree with Aren about the location thing. If he don't want us to know where he lives we just need to give them recommendations for products that are around that price range.

Knowing which country someone lives doesnt tell much about who he is, He could just write what currency he uses too.

PC part picker doesn't support dual CPUs. So, it's kind of hard to use this properly.

4790k on lga 2011 - have fun with that....

LGA1150 i-series CPUs dony work in dual 2011 boards.

The i7 4790k cant work in pairs.

Oh. Dangit. Wouldn't it be cool if it could though

No because there are no 1150 dual socket mobos.

You have to look towards the Xeon CPU's if you want more than one CPU in one system.

Honestly, it probably wouldn't be all that cool.. Dual CPUs always wind up losing a bit of performance due to the communication latency between the CPUs, and both the motherboard and CPUs that can support that technology need a lot more complicated and expensive hardware (and software) in order to function properly. Even then, applications that can fully and efficiently utilize multiple CPUs are few and far between in the consumer space (mainly being limited to very specific server workloads).

 

Ignoring the inefficiencies, dual i7-4790Ks would effectively give you 8 hyperthreaded Haswell cores at 4.0 Ghz (4.4 max turbo).. An i7-5960X has 8 hyperthreaded Haswell cores, and can easily be overclocked over 4 Ghz.
