Hello!

 

My friend sent me a message on skype and told me he gonna build new computer.

 

 

he told me that his budget is 3600 euro for a pc and i shoud write together something for him.

 

i was 0.o that where he gets all that money but i wrote together something

 

what about this:

 

Case: CoolerMaster Cosmos II
Mobo: asus z87 deluxe/dual
CPU: intel core i7 4770k
GPU: Asus GeForce GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5 3GB
SSD: Samsung 840 EVO Series MZ-7TE1T0 1TB
HDD: WD Caviar Black 4TB 7200RPM
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX1500G Gold
RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR3 PC15000/1866MHz
CPU cooler: Corsair Hydro H100i
 

 

i dont know we he needs 1500 watt of PSU, he only gonna run dual cards, but its his system...

 

he only gonna gaming cod what i know. well this is VERY overkill for only playing cod but its his money and he told me to write together the best system i could do for the money

 

 

so what do you gusy think about the system?

PSU is so overkill, That system draws 750W from the wall when OC'd. If your conservative get a 850W.

Sigh, all that for Cod...

Your Case & RAM make no sense at all. I would never hire you to spend my money on a system build.

A typical 800 euro system can play your shitty little cod game at high @ 1080p all day long

dem psu. way overkill!

 

Edit: Tell him that for cod a 800-1000€ pc is enough and he should get something cool for the rest of the money.

You should get the Corsair 900D case, and get two of those PSU's since one is not sufficient for Call of Duty.

i hope you are sarcastic...

There is absolutely no need for that kind of overkill. Instead, use the money for a serious w/c loop. Drop the case down to a micro atx (350D), use a VI gene, 4670k, 8gb of ram, ~850W psu and dual 760s or a single 780. This combination will easily give you 60fps and once oc'd, it will be so much more cost effective. If you want, make the loops as simple as possible and save the extra money of peripherals.

great way to waste cash. pre builts are good for really cgeal pcs. not gaming because they often give you unbalanced parts and crap price.

Seriously consider this. I have 2 different colour patriot mamba 3 kits for aesthetic purposes :)

Change out for reference cards if you prefer but the gigabyte windforce cooler is so sexy in person  :wub:

Also, change out to the 900d if you wish but it's to big of a case to not have any water-cooling, it would look pretty silly.
