Does these parts fit together?

[kekerino]

I wanna add some stuff to my system, since i want to future proof a bit.

 

So are these good together http://pcpartpicker.com/p/hBMchM

 

(I don't want to upgrade to skylake or ddr4 stuff)

[pcman365]

change the 970 to a r9 390 other than that looks good

What's your PSU? Also, I'll give you the typical LTT forum answer when you have a GTX 970 in your build - get a 390 instead.

You can't future proof.

Though the parts fit nicely

I would choose a sapphire r9 390 instead of the 970

[Mr.Meerkat]

in terms of compatibility, it's completely fine

But the 390 is a better GPU therefore I would recommend to change it to that (but also depends on how good your PSU is).

R9 390 > 970

[kekerino]

I already have the 970. It was easier for ya'll to see if there was any bottlenecks

And older Energon EPS-750 watt

That one look like a crappy.

 

Please don't use that.

It could damage your system very easily.

 

Get an EVGA G2/GS/GQ PSU or any Seasonic PSUs.

Im a corsair fanboy. Any good corsair psu?

[rhodestech]

The 970 gets 3.5/4 from me  B) Yeah, you're better off with switching out to an R9 390. On the PSU front, you can't go wrong with Corsair, EVGA, Seasonic and Fractal Designs. Heard great things from those brands. I've been using a Corsair HX750 for the past two years. No issues. Another thing to consider would be wattage too, depends on your future upgrade path.

I generally dislike the CX and VS series, and since they're pretty much the only ones in your range, I'm afraid not.
