New build

Alda14

A buddy of mine is is selling parts of his old build. He is selling an I7 4790k, an ASRock Z97 Killer motherboard, and 16 gb of DDR3 G.Skill Trident X RAM at 2400 Mhz. I have my former GPU an EVGA 970 SSC w/ ACX 2.0 that i can use with the parts as well as a Corsair RMx 650 psu. Would theses parts go well together? Are there any issues i might run into by using these parts? There is a note on pc part picker that says the RAM exceeds the recommended voltage of 1.5v and that the RAM will be running at  lower clock speeds or higher voltage is required. I would be building this pc for my younger brother who wants to get into pc gaming. It would be used for 1080p gaming at above 60 fps.

Pc part picker isnt perfect, ask your friend if he has trouble with the ram in the past, also it would do pretty well for gaming, also get the cost you may be able to get sonething better if he is charging a high price

It's fine, though what exact EVGA PSU is this?

sticks this well built can hold even 1.8V easily, it's not a problem at all.

He said he hasnt had trouble with it, this also happened to me and my first build. All i did was ran my RAM at a lower clock speed and it worked perfectly fine. He is asking 300 USD for the three components

sounds like a deal.. cheaper would be better, but sounds like a good system for brother. slap a HDD/SSD in and he's rolling.
