$1000 Gaming/Editing Build

[PC_N00B]

Hey guys ive been working on this build for quite a while now for an all purpose rig that will do everything from play new fps and mmos at 60 fps and 1080p. Any and all critiques are welcome! Thanks! (monitor and operating system are already taken care of) http://pcpartpicker.com/p/73s46h

Looks good.

 

Only complaints would be the crap SSD (a Sandisk SSD Plus or Adata SP550 would be better choices) and a better PSU (something like the EVGA 750 B2 would be better or a EVGA 650 G2 if the budget allows it).

ugggg power supplies so exspensive....twice what I was originally planning to spend, but I realize its THE BACKBONE of the system so ya, kinda important. What does the continuous power supply mean? arent they all continuous?...

Good quality PSUs should be always continuous, otherwise they'll be in the same tier as crap ones. Continuous PSUs mean that the PSU should deliver a set amount of wattage for a long periods of time.

 

Got a store/website you show me and budget for the PSU so I can find you a good one?

newegg is what im going to use for everything. they seem pretty legit. uhh the cheapest, bestest one you can find that can handle a 390 with later overclocking and a bit to spare just in case. The price is just whatever, no real budget, just best bang for buck.

Ehh, rebate cards might be a bit of a hassle, since you have to mail it back to get the discount...

 

Any chance you can get it from Amazon? Since I'm assuming you live in America, correct?

Nice, good to hear.

 

The EVGA SuperNOVA 750 B2 is a good quality PSU - Japanese capacitors, good ripple control and voltage regulation, made by SuperFlower, and it'll handle whatever that R9 390 throws at it.

Nah, it'll be okay. Unlikely that'll happen to make you worry about it.

Sapphire Nitro would be my No. 1 choice, closely followed by MSI.

 

XFX and Powercolor are also good budget options.

 

Just avoid Gigabyte for their poor coolers and their voltage locked AMD cards and ASUS for their crap coolers.
