Uh, for a 970 you really should get an i5 4460... just ditch the hyper, you don't need it

i have i3 4160, works just fine with 970 for now

the best i3 is 4370, that onw will work even better

I read it before, the i3 4350 is faster than i3 4370 with lower price but maybe the i5 4460 is better

true, but i currently don't have money, in a year or two i will switch to i5, maybe i7.

i think i will switch when Broadwell's come

Maybe skip the ssd and add it later but get a decent cpu instead.

[i_build_nanosuits]

I suggest this, remove the hyper 212 from your list you don't need it for these CPU's the boxed one is perfectly fine and you don't need a 750W PSU in a machine that won't even do SLI/CFX

^^and this makes a ton of sense too IMHO.

You might also want to look at the R9 290/290X GPU's they are sometimes much cheaper and still are very strong GPU's.

[yeyuearl]

You don't need a 750W PSU and 32GB of memory...

I'm not going to suggest a mobo and processor when there's no mention of your budget.

Oh. Misinterpreted sorry. I mean that 32gb max ram on mobo. Can you also suggest a psu? I will update the pc parts later

What is better? The asrock h97 (m) Anniversary or the msi z97s krait?

[yeyuearl]

You can get that EVGA 600B that i_build_nanosuits suggested above.

And still no mention of your budget...

Sorry again lol. Like the full build almost 800$? With monitor. No os mouse keyboard. I already have them

Budget is missing 50$ to make a very good machine IMHO...i would go with your list as is and add monitor ON TOP of the budget (save more...beg...cry...i don't know man) but still here is a ''more'' cut down version of this system.

If you want to go with a mid range GPU then you'd save a lot going with an R9 280 or R9 280X but you would be saying good by to ''higher-end'' performance...this rig as is can drive the GTX 970 in most games...anything lower won't do it.

[weez]

The H97M Anniversary does not allow overclocking, does not support SLI and is a microATX mobo. And significantly cheaper than the Z97S Krait.

The m97m anniversary has some overclocking features. Just not as comprehensive as the z boards.

really?? when can you say that you need to change that cpu? just curious on an i3 + 970 gpu

don't know really, it's more or less my temporary cpu, until i get some more money. then i will buy i5 + new mobo. maybe even i7 or xeon

but i think i will wait for Broadwell's to come out

you can try the locked cpus just like OP..as for me, I did get an OC mobo with an i3 and will wait for the broadwells too..

 

perhaps i'll see benchmarks on i3 when ready to buy a gpu

i know but my mobo is really the cheapest i could find, it's going byebye along with the processor

[BlazingGunnerFTW]

Look at this.

(If you didnt need the monitor, go with this)
