This is my first time building a pc and I'm looking for advice.
My budget is $1000.
As cheap as possible without skimping out on anything.
It's mostly for gaming; however I'm also playing around with Unity/UDK,
so I'd like a pc that can run those well.
Here's the build I'm thinking about:
PCPartPicker part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/13Bvh
Price breakdown by merchant: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/13Bvh/by_merchant/
Benchmarks: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/13Bvh/benchmarks/
CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G43 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 3GB Video Card
Case: Thermaltake Chaser A31 ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair CX 600W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V Power Supply
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8 (OEM) (64-bit)
Total: $978.86
Anything I should add/take out?
Also is overclocking worth the extra money for the K series cpu?
Thanks in advance.
