First Time Building!

Hey there this is my First post on this forum

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Im planning to build a PC myself so im doing this so maybe you guys can find a Bottleneck or FeedBack!

My buget is 1.600Euro and yes, you already guessed it its Europe!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The System

Lets get straight into the system!

Case: Coolermaster Mastercase Pro 5

This case is everything i need, every part fits and if i need to upgrade I have more then enough room!

CPU: Intel Core I5 4690K

This CPU is enough for my needs with gaming, If its needed I'll be overclocking it max to 4.2Gz.

MotherBoard: MSI Z97 GAMING 5

This motherboard supports everything I need in terms of overclocking, it supports SLI/Crossfire so 2 way SLI with X8 X8 and 3 Way crossfire X8 X4 X4 and M.2 and it has a Audio Boost thingy .

GPU: EVGA GTX 970 4GB FTW with ACX 2.0+

This GPU is well enough overkill for everything I'll be trowing at for atleast 5 years and my bugget fits it .

CPU Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

Thanks to the forums, i could chose this cooler instead of the CM v8 gts

RAM: DDR3-1600 16Gb

Nothing to special I know that 8gb is enough but if im planning to upgrade my ram i don't want some ram sticks to be rotten somewhere at my desk or something... and my motherboard supports 32GB in total thats why.

Storage: Kingston HyperX Fury 120GB SSD, WD Se 1Tb

I'll be using my SSD as OS drive and my 1tb drive as my main drive where I'll be setting all my games and documents.

Power Supply: CoolerMaster V750S

This power supply supports everything in my system and is ready if I'll be doing SLI (with i might not do).

OS: Windows 10 Home 64Bit

Just the basic OS to even use the Computer, Nothing to Special.

Keyboard/Mouse/Monitor:

Keyboard: CM Storm Trigger Z

Mouse: Razer Taipan

Monitor: LG 24MB37PY

For all the assortments here is just the basic things.

But I want to inform you about the monitor it has: 1080p resolution,60Hz, 24 inch and a DisplayPort with I'll be using no G-Sync

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This was my Post for Feedback/Bottlenecks

And yes it gows a littlebit over my buget but it's nothing to worry about

Thanks for reading and goodbye and have a nice day!

PS: Sorry if there are Grammer/English mistakes Please inform if there are grammer/english mistakes

There would be no bottlenecks, everything would work just fine. Here's a list of coolers that you might consider buying instead of the one you picked. They're all pretty much equal in terms of performance and would do about as well as the one you chose.

CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14 65.0 CFM CPU Cooler ($69.94 @ Newegg)
CPU Cooler: Phanteks PH-TC14PE 78.1 CFM CPU Cooler ($74.99 @ Newegg)
CPU Cooler: be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 67.8 CFM Fluid Dynamic Bearing CPU Cooler
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler ($88.98 @ OutletPC)
CPU Cooler: CRYORIG R1 Ultimate 76.0 CFM CPU Cooler ($89.99 @ Newegg)
CPU Cooler: Thermalright SILVER ARROW IB-E 73.6 CFM CPU Cooler ($79.95 @ Amazon)

You might also consider getting a cheaper cooler if you don't plan to do crazy overclocking, in which case something like that would suffice:

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($24.75 @ OutletPC)
