Go to solution Solved by BigDay,

It's 2MS and I believe only 60hertz. I have always been happy with 60 fps, the goal is more to keep 60fps for future releases without needing a gpu every time a new title is released.

 

you will enjoy a consistent 60 fps on most titles these days at very high settings then

HI, so I am having difficulties actually ordering the final parts for my future build and just looking for reassurance or last minute tips.

 

What i have here (http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/phBqzy) is as high as i want to go price wise but if there are any better "bang for the buck" options or better versions of parts i'd love to know. I'm trying to keep a white and black build but if its possible to save a decent amount of money off not keeping the trend then it would be okay.

 

Thanks :)

Have you already purchased SSD?

 

If so, if there is an option for return. Please do it.

 

Get something like Samsung 850 evo!

 

I'd avoid the Seagate HDD anytime. Most probably because they have higher failure rates than WD drives.

 

But it's just my opinion.

 

Every other things looks great!

Intel Core i3 2100 @ 3.10GHz - Intel Stock Cooler - Zotac Geforce GT 610 2GB Synergy Edition

Intel DH61WW - Corsair® Value Select 4GBx1 DDR3 1600 MHz - Antec BP-300P PSU

WD Green 1TB - Seagate 2.5" HDD 1TB - Seagate Barracuda 500GB - Antec X1 E.

  • cpu is good
  • cooler is good
  • mobo is good
  • ram is good
  • ssd is NOT good. get an ssd plus, ssd 370, bx100, or 840 or 850 evo
  • hdd is good
  • gpu is great, it's not voltage locked and is one of the best overclockers
  • i dont like the case, i think nzxt cases are junk
  • i know nothing about your psu, sorry
  • monitors are 2ms, which is good, but i would prefer 1ms

I bought the SSD for around $50 I just was thinking it would do better than using the HDD as a boot and it was cheap.

In your opinion do you see this build lasting for at least around 3 years? I'd like to get 3-4 before upgrading while still having an enjoyable experience.

absolutely! it's an excellent 1080p build that will last you a long time. at least 3 years, for sure. the 390 is the best card for 1080p right now in order to play games at greater than 120 fps (in that price range). the only card that would beat it that would be slightly more expensive would be the 390x, but then your bridging into 1440p territory

 

do you have a 1ms and 144 hertz monitor?

It's 2MS and I believe only 60hertz. I have always been happy with 60 fps, the goal is more to keep 60fps for future releases without needing a gpu every time a new title is released.
