Hey guys

I am building a PC. I was wondering if you guys could tell me how much it could OC or tell me cheaper things that have good performance as I am a bit over my budget. I am also not sure if everything is compatible. I dont think the hasewells are compatible with the mobo but I haven't had time to check.

Specs:

CPU: i5 4670k (hopefully can OC to 4.5ghz)
CPU cooler: Cooler Master hyper 212
Case: Haf 922
RAM: 16gb corsair 1600mhz
HDD: 1tb
SSD 128gb
MOBO: Asrock extreme 4
GPU: Nvidia geforce 670
PSU: SeaSonic X-1050

You don't need a 1050W PSU. Drop it to 500W if you only plan on having that one GPU or 750W if you plan to SLI. That should hopefully bring you back within your budget.

Also, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO may not handle 4.5GHz overclock on that chip. You will need something stronger.

As for the motherboard, if it is a Z87 one, then it's compatible.

How about the H80? I heard that can handle about 4.8ghz.

I don't think it will handle 4.8GHz well, but it should definitely handle 4.5GHz.
