All I'm Seeing Is Black and White Build

[_jcharlton_]

Hey Guys,

 

Can someone quickly run over my build and comment on how these components would run together (please give suggestions if needed). The build will primarily be used for gaming though may see some light design or graphical work in it's life. Eventually the build will be OC'ed though there is no reason to do so until she starts running out of juice. Also, there is no need for a secondary drive or monitor as I have a few lying around anyway. (This is in AUD so don't freak when you see the price.)

Looks decent.

 

To better fit the color theme you could go with a STRIX card or other 970. Maybe some better looking black RAM? (subjective)

You would also be fine with a cx600m (or even less wattage if you don't plan to upgrade)

get a 250 gb mx100 ssd its about the same price also get a define r5

The Bitfenix Aegis takes micro ATX boards. The MSI krait is ATX so it won't fit.

 

The Corsair CS isn't the best choice for psu. You can get the EVGA Supernova G2 750W for less.

 

Are you going for a Black/White theme ?
