My medium priced concept build

[Sozakir]

Hi guys,

 

This is my first own build I'm doing and I'm wondering what you guys think of it:

 

CPU: Intel core i5-4590 / Intel core i5-4690 (The 4690 is a bit out of my budget, so I'm trying to find a good deal for it. Is paying extra for that processor a good call?)

Motherboard: ASRock B85M Pro4

GPU: MSI R9 380 4GB

HDD: WesternDigital Blue WD10EZEX, 1TB

RAM: Crucial Ballistix BLS2CP4G3D1609DS1S00CEU

PSU: Seasonic S12II-Bronze 520W (Will this be enough? I don't have any experience with buying powersupplies)

Case: Fractal Design Core 1100

 

SSD might come later

 

Any tips and comments are welcome.

The ram is a bit slow.

Other than that it seems good!

Gaming PC? Unless you get the 4690K and overclock it there wont be any perfromance gain from the 4590 4460 - 4590 - 4690 perform pretty much the same in games.

i would say thats a pretty solid build. ram speed is enough you dont need to invest higher speed ram if youre on a budget.

im personally not a big fan of asrock boards but thats personal preference.

i would hardly recommend to get a ssd. they make the whole pc run faster. when i was on a budget i grabed a ssd first and recycled an old hardrive when i was on a tight budget.

Don't bother for processor, its good, power supply is good too, just choose the H97 board from Asus or MSI, for better support
