If you are looking to game, this is all wrong.

tiny voices :

May I ask why? That is what I was planing.

tiny voices · Apr 28, 2013

You don't need an i7. It is identical to an i5 in gaming.

8gb RAM is all that is needed for gaming.

That GPU is WEAK. Look at the hd7870 for high settings in modern games.

That PSU is overkill. 550w would be more than enough.

You want an h77 motherboard.

that is a laptop HDD

Damn... I screwed up.

tiny voices :

With you all the way until that. Wouldn't a Z77 be more optimal for a 3570k?

Edit: Or are we assuming that he'd go with a i5 3350p?

tiny voices · Apr 28, 2013

Not a problem. Always good to learn!

Jack Revenant :

He didn't have a k series CPU so I figured he wasn't planning to overclock. In this case an h77 board is great. If he gets a k series CPU and wants to overclock it, a z77 board is needed.

Ah. Gotcha. My apologies. I read "i5" and immediately assumed 3570k.

Um, sorry to ask but could you (TinyVoices) pick out some parts for me. :pt1cable:

tiny voices · Apr 28, 2013

What is your budget?

Lee360TheCoder · Apr 28, 2013

tiny voices :

I'm planing to build part by part, so not like buying the whole thing at one time. Around $635.

tiny voices · Apr 28, 2013

It makes more sense to wait until you have all the money at one time. New deals will show up and parts will get older if you do it over time. Its not really a good idea. Is $635 the total amount you want to spend.

Lee360TheCoder · Apr 28, 2013

tiny voices :

I guess, but I could always get more.

Lee360TheCoder · Apr 28, 2013

tiny voices :

Oh yeah, you seem pretty smart man. Just asking but do you Xbox LIVE gamertag?

tiny voices · Apr 28, 2013

I don't have xbox live gold. My xbox isn't even hooked up anymore.

tiny voices :

Oh, that sucks :\ Either way thanks.
