First Gaming Build Wanting Help

[BlakeyBoy98]

Designed to max out at 1080p and small amounts of video editing for YouTube.

Running 1 monitor and all peripherals i already own, budget is $1600 AUD and i'm sitting at $1500 but still need a power supply can go a little bit over but not to much.

 

Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor

NZXT Kraken X61 106.1 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

MSI Z97 PC MATE ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

OCZ ARC 100 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

MSI Radeon R9 390 8GB Video Card

NZXT S340 (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case

[Swndlr]

EVGA 650 SuperNova GS?

Or basically any SeaSonic PSU with enough wattage.

Looks fine except the OCZ drive, I prefer crucial and Samsung. Try to look for a BX 100.

I would get an air cooler and a bigger ssd,

unless you really want the looks of the X61

Hey OP,

Your list is great, but I've made a few changes and modifications to it. I got a 250GB BX100 drive, along with a much more ballsy motherboard. The power supply will happily accommodate 2 more 390's if needed. The Fractal Design Newton is a 1000 Watt Platinum design and currently has a ridiculous deal going on. I know it is a bit more pricey, but it's usually around $300.

So according to this link: http://linustechtips...-psu-whitelist/

An Antec High Current Gamer PSU would be a good budget based purchase?

No, get this.

http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/fractal-design-power-supply-fdpsunt3b1000w

It is essentially half price.

Go for EVGA B2. Better then High Current Gamer and is cheaper
