Posted July 23, 2015 Author total budget? also given heat concerns have you checked out the short version of the 970 from gigabyte? Either it is not available in canada or I can't find it. also most 970 retail at ~$400 in canada so it's more 2x the price. I'm not going to be over clocking the 370 and I intend to have the case in the optimal vertical orientation. so hopefully heat should not be huge issue. ~ Luc Luc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's there but around 400 dollars its a bit too much of a stretch to fit in. itx cases are expensive lol.

Do you think that psu is adequate considering I won't be overclocking? ~ Luc Luc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted July 23, 2015 Author Very... Just a quick question. Do you think that psu is adequate considering I won't be overclocking? Obviously I'm quite limited in terms of selection by the sfx form factor and my location. But there are other options silverstone has, including a 600w. ~ Luc Luc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted July 24, 2015 Obviously I'm quite limited in terms of selection by the sfx form factor and my location. But there are other options silverstone has, including a 600w.yea that should be plenty. The whole system shouldn't take more than 300 or so.
