My very 1st gaming build

cinceprutie · Apr 3, 2013

Here is my incomplete build..

Chasis - CORSAIR CARBIDE 300R w/ window
Processor - Intel Core i5-3570K (3.4G) 6mb 22nm
CPU Cooler - CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO
RAM - any 2x4GB 1600
Motherboard - Asrock Z77 Extreme 4
Grapic Card - Evga GTX650TI SC 1GB GDDR5 128bit hdmi
Hard Drive - 1TB Seagate 7200rpm

Here is what I would do
System Usage : Gaming
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
Overclocking: maybe in the near future
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080

And now here's the questions..^^
1. What budget-mid range PSU can you suggest?
2. Is this build correct? (are there any compatibility issues)
3. What are your suggestions? (any suggestions are open)

Im asking this from a noobs perspective coz this is my very first build and does know little in hardware or building a PC..

Thanks in advance for any comments, suggestions or opinions..*bow*

1)get corsair cxv2 500w psu

2)build is correct

3)i suggest get 2gb vram of gtx 650ti as for 1080p 2gb is important

Depending on your budget your system looks okay. The CPU, Case, Mobo, CPU HSF, & HD look pretty good. The GPU is a bit weak, IMHO, for the CPU that you selected. Depending on your total system budget, I would consider a bit less budget on the CPU and more on a better GPU.

lunyone :

I still dont have a PSU, can you suggest?
Would ASHISH65 suggestion (corsair cxv2 500w psu) suffice?

And about the GPU, would the GTX650 TI 2GB would be enough or a (Willing to spend more) Asus HD7850 DC 2gb ddr5 256bit would do the trick?

yep hd 7850 is your best choice.if you can get then grab it without thinking much

lunyone · Apr 3, 2013

The 7850 would be my choice, or even the 7870 LE version, if at all possible. The Corsair CX V2 500w PSU is fine also. I also suggest the XFX 550w Pro also, if it's close in price to the Corsair.

Get the gtx 650 ti boost edition over the normal 650 ti

Sorry to have waste your time guys but I've change my mind..I think Im gonna go for a budget build coz while searching I found out that there's gonna be a new processor from Intel codename 'Haswell', so I'll go budget for now..

Thanks very much BTW guys..^^
