I bet the 4460 is intimidated by the VI Extreme.

Prolly cries at night while the VI Extreme bullies it.

Nice, assuming you've already have the latest BIOS version for putting that HR cpu in a Z87 mobo

 

Edit: Not nice, just realise that your build doesn't have an SSD, why not 4690K + SSD?

@iNCEPTiON

  • well the PSU is overkill it would still run on 800w psu's
  • you literally made a huge mistake not getting an SSD
  • and you bought a MoBo built with OC as an essential part, but you only have a locked PC
  • and 16gb of memory is too much considering you wont be editing videos

a lot of first time mistakes, you should have posted your build log here before buying the parts. But at least it's aesthetically pleasing

Thanks for the adwice guys!

I was not sure if i will benefit from a SSD so thats why i dindt buy it, the Hdds are from my old office PC :)

Didnt realise that i couldnt overclock it no its to late :( but im upgrading will watch some overclock tutorials on youtube.

The memory was at Sale for only 100€ so thats why i took it.

I took the 1000W Psu because i was scared that the 2 gpus will burn my PC xD

 

Yeah i should have postet here dammit :(

I'm a freelance dev taking in Outsourced jobs. Some of these monsters were gift's from companies I work for like the 5960x. My income is pretty much spent funding my own college education with the occasional allowance from my parents. I get a huge amount of pay for each job (around $3-5,000) but each job llikely takes about 2-3months so it's pretty much unreliable ATM.

 

edit:

You will definitely benefit from an SSD faster boot times and faster loading on games
