First pc build

Go to solution Solved by Dzzope,

can you tell me if its a good build:

Intel core i5 4690k 3.5Ghz 6MB box lga1150

corsair cooling hydro series H100i GTX

msi z97 s sli plus

CORSAIR Vengeance Pro CMY8GX3M2A1866C9B (8GB Ddr3)

asus strix gtx 960 2gb gddr5

KINGSTON HyperX FURY 120GB for windows

wd 1tb 64M/s600 GreenPower

corsair cx600 power suply

all housed in a fractal design define s black window

I'm thinking about to add a CRUCIAL BX100 500GB in the future

Also I already have the power supply and graphics card.

I'm going to use this pc for gaming like gta 5 on max/ultra settings but i know thats not going to be the case whit this gpu and later on im going to add a nother graphic card and liguid cool the gpu and cpu.

sorry for my bad english thanks for the help  :)

CX600 isn't great but you already have it so meh, 

Ram speed means very little, get the cheapest set of 1600 cl9 that fits your build for aesthetics.

Don't spend too much on the motherboard.. about 50% more than the cheapest z97 is about the sweet spot.

Unless your getting a really good price on the hyperX fury, just go for a Samsung 850 Evo or OCZ arc 100, usually very cheap and really good performance.

Stay away from WD green HDD's unless it's only for media storage and the like... don't have applications installed on it.

 

If you can save else-where, get a 970 instead of the 960.. Even if you have to go with a cheap air cooler on the processor or stay on stock for a while.. GPU will make more of a difference to that build than anything else.

dont go for the 960, its poop $ per FPS, save up to a 970 or get an amd card, i dont have any suggestions for amd cards but someone will tell you a good one. also 600W is way to much power go for 450-500 ish wat

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

There's never too much power...unless you have a 1500 watt... Don't change your PSU, you can always have the extra headroom for overclocking or another graphics card.

Yeah there are fully modular 750W EVGA PSUs for around the same price, so it's a little more bang for the buck, and I've heard elsewhere on this forum that CX series aren't exactly the most reliable, could be pulling that info from where the sun don't shine though.

For the graphic card I can't change it unless I sell it and buy a 970 probably gonna do that in the future before water cooling it

and i'll stick with the stock cpu cooler for now.

for the ram I can go with corsair vengeance pro cmy8gx3m2a1600c9b 8gb

For the mother board I don't know this one offers me sli for the future and the color is in my theme

Im geting a great deal for the hyperX fury the samsung 850 evo and OCZ arc 100 are to expensive in my country

for the HDD whats your solution should i go whit a  WD blue edition?

Then don't make the original poster feel bad with his purchase by saying the 960 is "poop $ per FPS". It might not be the best price to performance GPU but it is still one hell of a GPU that is very capable.
