Ok, so it been about 5 yrs since i last got a PC, mine still works fine but is slow on most modern games. I am completely not tech savvy so i could use some help on checking what i got so far, and some suggestions on where/how i can improve. BTW this is almost strictly for gaming/web surfing, maybe a touch of game recording-via Fraps.. This is what im looking at so far:
Processor: i5 3570k quad (dont know if im going to OC but would like the option if i decide to)
MoBo: thinking something w/z77 (heard its best for gaming. suggestions welcome. (possibly something SLI)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 670(x2/SLI) unless u think i could game max settings easy with something else. (perfer to stay w/Nvidia, not a fan of AMD)
Storage: 128 SSD & 1TB HDD, (i heard using both will decrease load times, could use some clarification on this)
RAM: 16 GB DDR3
Cooling: Thinking Liquid, not sure though (always been skeptical of Liquid in electronics)
PSU: not sure here, could use some advise.
OS: Win7 (64bit) could use recommendation on what kind IE: Ultimate, Pro, Home Prem. etc (not sure if this would effect gaming at all)
If there is anything i am missing or something i could improve/change please let me know. This will be used 95% for gaming, and im looking to run games in Max settings for some time (atleast 5yrs to come). I would also like it to be fairly quiet.
Thank you for help in advance =)
