Hello,
About to start building 2 computers in Australia with only $2000 AU budget.
Already have the HD (2x 1TB WD Caviar black for each + Samsung SSD 120GB for each) and the RAM (16GB Ripjaws high profile).
computers will be for intensive programing and image analysis (single core in many cases), and do not require high end GPU. Both machines may end up overclocked
Do not need OS (have both linux and windows available)
here is what I had in mind:
3x Monitors (2 for one machine, 1 for the other) -- Samsung 22" ~$134AU/ea
2x GPU EVGA GT620 (have 2x DVI outputs) -------------------- ~$66 AU /ea
2x PSU Corsair CX-500M ---------------------------------------- ~79 AU /ea
2x Optical LiteOn IHAS 124 -------------------------------------- ~$21 / ea
2x Hyper EVO 212 coolers --------------------------------------- ~$34 / ea
Now...
Machine 1 I was thinking of using:
i7-3770k + Asrock Z77 ------------------------------------------ ~$436
+ Fractal Desigin R4 ---------------------------------------------- ~$143
Machine 2:
i7 3570K + Asrock Z77------------------------------------------- ~$334
+ Antec P280 ---------------------------------------------------- ~$128
The grand total is ~$1,841 -- shipping and handling will be about $100
Can you guys think of improving the current system both on quality and performance?
Help would be much appreciated!
