My first time *-*

Go to solution Solved by Aniallation,

Don't get that PSU, get this instead http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-110b20750vr

 

Aside from that looks good, but you likely don't need 16GB of RAM if you're just gaming.

Hey everyone.  So this is the first time I will be buying my pc in components and I have been investigating and tried to do my best creating a good pc. It kinda looks like this :

I would like to know your opinions , what would you change in the build , what would be better , what would be less expensive and have the same result etc etc for a budget of 900 +/- 

 

 

Thanks :D

( Not native english speaker so yeah... if there's some bad english you know now why xD

Between the two PSUs? The NEX750B sucks, as it's based on an FSP Raider platform with crappy capacitors, mediocre ripple suppression and awful voltage regulation. 750B2 is a Super Flower Golden Green which is a night and day difference.

 

Between 8GB and 16GB? 8192 megabytes.

"Rawr XD"

For OC on Z97, try to keep the ram at 2 sticks max so it doesn't put too much stress on the memory controller. At either 8GB or 16GB, get 2 sticks instead of 4 sticks.

e.g. 8GB, do not get 4x2GB, get 2x4GB

16GB: 4x4GB (No), 2x8GB (Yes)

For SSD go with a 240GB

 For the Ram its solved its 2x4gb = 8gb. I will upgrade to 16 when its needed  . Now for the SSD do you have any recommendations ? :D

Samsung 850Evo at 240GB, but basically any SSD at that size will do, just make sure it's SATA 6Gb/s (SATA 3), and from a reputable brand like Samsung, Intel, Adata, Crucial, Corsair, etc
