Hi,
I'm planning on building a pc my budget is around 1000 euro but make it 1000 dollar if thats easyer.

I already had some things so here is what i came up with

i5-3570K or the non k version
evga gtx 670 ftw signature 2
Corsair GS700 2013 Edition
Zalman Z9 Plus
MSI Z77A-G45
Western Digital WD10EZEX
Geheugen DDR3-1600
Kingston HyperX 8 GB DDR3-1600 Kit KHX1600C9D3P1K2/8G, Genesis PnP
and a dvd burner

now i wonder if this is compatable or not like will the motherboard support the ram and gtx 670?

Do I really notice any difference between the k and non k version of processor?

If anyone could give me some advise on what to change or what is better.


I most likely order this from http://www.alternate.nl/html/index.html

The non K i5 3570 or i5 3470 is still a very powerful cpu for gaming if you get that than you can also buy a less costly H77 motherboard.
The gtx 670 ftw signature 2 is fine as well with either
The MSI Z77A-G45 mobo is for K uinlocked cpus which involves overclocking. Normaly that board with 3570k oc to 4.2-4.4GHz Max
Thanks

Edit: Heres some H77 motherboards :

The system should be fine. The 3570k has the unlocked multiplier, so if you want to OC later you can EASILY do that. It would allow you to extend the PC life a bit more down the road, but it's up to you. Even the 3350P is a good option, if you want to save some $ and still have a Quad core CPU. The 3350P just doesn't come with a working iGPU, so keep that in mind if you go that way.

thanks for those alternatives the http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0081AHXE2/ref=asc_df_B0081A or http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B007NOYCZ0/ref=asc_df_B007NO seems to be some pretty good aswel for that price altough the prices from amazon are different where I wanna buy it. the cheapest for me is the MSI.
Altough I am not sure if I want to go with SLI later on .
And I don't get it why a mothermord does dupport crossfire but can handle 1 nvidia card. Just doen't make sense to me!

And a friend of my came up with this ASRock B75 Pro3 ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/B75-PRO3-B75-Motherboard-Gigabit-Graphics/dp/B007RQ0H3K/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1364215592&sr=1-1 ) maybe that is something?

Yes both are Good motherboards get any from any reputable shops where price is good.

NVIDIA has largely pulled out of the chipset market, so there remain cases where two boards share a chipset but only one supports SLI. You can assume that multi-GPU support means AMD Crossfire support. You can’t assume the same for SLI.

GTX670 is a very good card after a year or two you might not want to SLI it anymore as there will be two to three times powerful card at todays GTX 670 price. :)

Think of those who in 2011 bought GTX 480 for £300+ with SLI in mind now they can buy a gtx 680 for that :)

I guess its always best to go for whats the best buy @ the time instead future proof.
8GB is enough for gaming but some buying 16gb thinking future proof, while its true to some extant but who knows what lies ahead after a year or two maybe 32GB will be required. Not to mention a 16GB set now cost nearly £100 After few year might cost £25 only.

This is the reality my friend.

Good luck




Edit: Heres the difference between chipsets feature.

B75 is a business work oriented more economy chipset but I don't see any reason why it wont work either. But my recommendation is still firm unchanged. Thanks

seems like I can only find see these MSI boards for around : MSI ZH77A-G43 and the MSI Z77A-G43 both are between 80 and 90 euro. The MSI Z77A-G43 is not the same as the (MSI ZH77A-G43 LGA) it is like the little brother of (MSI Z77A-G45) the ASUS is 88 euro. But when i see the table at http://hothardware.com/articleimages/Item1835/chipset-chart.png then i think that z77 chip might be better so I can oc the processor when games get even heavier and I dont have the money to upgrade.

so you actually say i should go for the MSI Z77A-G43 or the MSI Z77A-G45?
but what are the pro's and con's of these mobo's. I guess the only difference I see is the price and that the MSI Z77A-G45 does support SLI but the G43 doestn't wich with 1 GPU isn't a problem?!

Personally I think that SLI/Xfire is not really needed, unless your going with extreme resolutions (usually more than 2 screens).

I dont go with 2 screens maybe I buy a bigger screen later.
But when is look for support list of that MSI Z77A-G43 mobo there is gtx 570 but not 670 is there any difference?
I think I go with the MSI Z77A-G43 mobo take a supported ram and the Corsair Carbide 200R case.
The GPU I don't know I would love to go with the gtx 670 ftw signature 2 but it the price wnt up this week to 400 euro.
So if you know a nice alternative... preferable a gtx 670 tough but maybe a cheaper one.

As long as your Mobo has a PCI-e slot (which they all do now, except maybe some really old/cheap ones) you will have support for any PCI-e GPU. As far as a comparable GPU, I would look at the 7970 GPU. It's usually cheaper by a little bit over the GTX 670 and usually performs equal to or better than the GTX 670.
