Hey everyone,

 

I'm looking to build a new gaming pc, this will be my first pc that I'll build.

 

I have been looking around for parts and I think I have a pretty good list. I'm not 100% if everything fits and works with each other.

 

The part list:

GPU: Zotac GTX 980 Ti AMP! Extreme Edition
 
CPU: Intel i7 6700k
 
Motherboard: MSI Z170A Gaming PRO
 
RAM: Crucial Ballistix LT 16GB DDR4 2.400 MHz
 
Case: NZXT H440 
 
SSD: Kingston HyperX Fury 240 GB
 
HDD: Western Digital Green 2TB
 
OS: Windows 10 Home
 
PSU: Corsair HX1000i
 
CPU Koeling: NZXT Kraken X61
 
Link are to Dutch stores......
 
Can someone confirm if I were to build this system it would work. Or maybe I should get some other cheaper of beter parts. The PC I have right now doesn't really have anything that I can carry over so I have to start fresh :D
 
Buget is around €2.500 or ~$2.750. I'm going to use this machine mainly for gaming, rendering/editing videos and live-streaming.

Get faster RAM, it's finally noticeable. 

 

 

Also WD Green is NOT WORTH IT, even for storage. Get the 2TB Blue or Seagate Desktop. WD Green is frustrating. 

 

 

1000W is massive overkill.

I wouldn't go WD green... Not even for a media drive.. Seagate barracuda or wd blue / red(be sure it's not spinning down too often for the red)

 

PSU is way overkill, Try xfx for an alternative re-brand of Seasonic PSU's or super flower are good as are EVGA (any of the second series, b2, g2 etc) and even if your going to go dual cards, you won't need more than a good 800W psu

 

Drop windows 10.. should still be able to find windows 8 pro for £15 ish online, totally legit.. just upgrade it after.

 

Depending on the balance of video / rendering work to gaming and also what resolution you are gaming at, the CPU  & GPU could be worth re-considering.. depending on actual needs..

 

€2500 is a monster rig.. potentially.

I don'T PreSS caPs.. I juST Hit THe keYboARd so HarD iT CriTs :P

Obviously you give up unlocked multipliers for overclocking.. but the extra cores should make a difference..

 

Total price: €2133

 

Processor.. 6 core 12 thread €451.45 : http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/417620/intel-xeon-e5-2620-v3-boxed.html

GPU..... Asus 980Ti Strix, less cost, same performance €744.15.. http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/452187/asus-strix-gtx980ti-dc3oc-6gd5-gaming.html

Motherboard. €208    http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/425442/gigabyte-ga-x99m-gaming-5.html

32 GB DDR4  €136     http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/481452/crucial-ballistix-sport-lt-bls2c16g4d240fsb.html

PSU               €144    EVGA G2 850W   http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/379332/evga-supernova-850-g2.html

Case H440     €117    http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/464735/nzxt-h440-new-edition-zwart-zwart.html

SDD 850 EVO €85     http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/422395/samsung-850-evo-250gb.html

HDD 3TB       €93      http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/459757/wd-blue-wd30ezrz-3tb.html

AIO                €155  Tripple rad.. :D  http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/441701/thermaltake-water-30-ultimate.html

With windows that would come to €2205 ish..

 

I'm sure you could fit in a 2560x1440 ips / gsync screen or maybe a big curved ultra-wide if you sold your old monitors.. or whatever... save it..

But if you were doing more cpu intensive stuff or really heavy multi-tasking while streaming / gaming and editing / rendering videos.. then yea.. the xeon rocks. BUT you do lose those unlocked multipliers.. and you could always go for an 8 or even bigger chip later on if you find one going cheap used..

@Dzzope Thanks man! I really didn't know I could get that kind of CPU on my buget. This is pretty much beter in every way and it costs a little bit less :P BTW I do think that the RAM is a error because I had 16 GB of the exact same for €130.Thanks a lot, I really need to go a look into this

Actually better with http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/412633/intel-core-i7-5820k-boxed.html

Retains the overclocking and has higher stock frequencies and is cheaper..

@Dzzope I can buy a 3 month old secondhand system with that CPU...

 

CPU: Intel Core i7-5820K 6-Core
CPU Cooling: Corsair Hydro H110i
Motherboard: MSI X99A SLI Plus
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB Superclocked
Case: NZXT H440 Zwart/Blauw
RAM: 32GB 2133Mhz, 8x4GB:
16GB Quad Channel Corsair Vengeance Blauw (CMK16GX4M4A2133C13B)
16GB Quad Channel Corsair Vengeance Zwart (CMK16GX4M4A2133C15)

OS: Windows 10
PSU: Corsair HX1200i
Storage: 2x Samsung 850 EVO 250GB (in raid0) (I probably need to throw in a extra HDD)

For around 1.900-2.000 euro's, would that be a good purchase? Would it be beter than a brand new system to my likings?

@Dzzope The owner bought it for his study, something with photography, but that isn't his thing he found out. Now hes works and doesn't really play games anymore so he preferece to have a decent labtop and desktop and maybe even have a little extra cash. If everything goes well....I can buy it for 1.750 euros

@Dzzope I'm going to take a look tomorrow and if it's i'll buy right away. The system looks awesome and it really show that is was made be some one who knew what he was doing. Every thing is also colour matched and just a really nice build overall
