Hey!

I already have Amd Fx8350 and im thinking to buy following parts with it. I'll use this pc mostly for gaming, editing, CAD work and little streaming. I created this list after some research but still I'm not confident about it. I would like suggestions from you. Some of my questions are:

1. Should i go with corsair H100i or Nzxt kraken x61?

2. Which brand R9 390 should i buy , msi or Gigabyte.

3. Is Nzxt H440 a good choice?

4. Is 650W PSU is enough or i should buy more powerful and which one?

5. I have plans for overclocking so Asrock mobo will do fine?

:D

iirc the X61 is a larger rad than the H100i therefore it'll cool better. 650W for overclocking headroom (can run 550W PSU without overclocks). Board has enough power phases (8+2) for overclocking the 8350 c:

You would be better off to sell the CPU and get something that's actually good.

Unless OP has a decent GPU already, or/and a flexible budget, that comment is just plain ignorant and retarded.

 

@OP Saved you a little cash on this build.

This looks great but I would pick a Sapphire R9 390 also not sure about the board not to familiar with it, but it seems good!

 

Just to be on the safe side a small fan for the VRMs is a good idea! ;)

Thanks!

 

Actually i live in India where NZXT still dont have any branch and  Liquid cooler is the thing which may cause problems in future so to be on the safer side im going with corsair! :)

H440 cooling isn't great. My gpus get really hot. It's a really nice looking case but after having it for a while a kind of want a new one.

Sir! After looking at your specs which includes i7 and Sli gtx 970 , i think you should have bought a high air flow cabinet , that is why h440 is creating problem for you.

True, but when I had this case I only had a 3770 and a single 660....
