Here's my build everybody I think this should all work together, if there is any room where I can shave some money off then please let me know. I want to build a pc powerful enough to run BF4 on ultra with 60+FPS

For storage, I plan on getting a Samsung 840 EVO 256GB SSD coming out this week

I changed the link I hope it works now

You can save some money and take cheaper mobo like gigabyte X-D3H or UD3H

Asus PRO is better choice than sabertooth.
Samsung PRO SSD is maybe cheaper? Good buy is sandisk ultra plus 256GB
I think samsung EVO is made for servers?

That corsair psu is cheap. But take better. It maybe bit more expensive. But you get more reliable psu then.
Seasonic ,XFX , Rosewill are good. And some others but brand do not tell yu what is really good. You need to pick right model too.

This was cheap 550w http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1550sxxb9

ryanthsin · Jul 31, 2013

Thanks a lot man. Is 550w enough? I wasn't sure how much power I would need for my setup. I was hoping to save 15-20% for upgrades in the future.

AxlFone · Jul 31, 2013

450w can do the job easy. So 550w is really enough

Good 550wPSU like rosewill capstone gives over 600w to full load. So it really good for your build.

For SLI you need 750w PSU.

ryanthsin · Jul 31, 2013

I see.. so let's say in a few years I stick a GTX780 in there and maybe another 8GBs of ram and 1TB HDD drive I should get a 750W PSU now?

I've also updated the link, please see whether that's okay, I'm still deciding on the PSU

AxlFone · Jul 31, 2013

That seasonic is good psu.

In few years there will be new one gpu that will do same job as the SLI set then in 2016

ryanthsin · Jul 31, 2013

haha I see thanks a lot

My build is complete then

When the Intel processors that support Turbo Boost 2.0 are using it, they can benefit from significantly overspec'd power supply units.
- The benefit is not huge, but it does add up and you can tune it.

They can micro-burst and draw insane amounts of power (over 300 watts, sometimes over 500 watts) for very short periods (fractions of a second).

There is no shame in using a 720+ watt PSU with any 2nd Gen Core i5 or 2nd Gen Core i7 processor.

The 1866MHz rated memory on the other hand, will probably be running at 1333 to 1600 MHz for the most part, and may not benefit from fast timings at those clock speeds if it was actually engineered for 1866MHz; sure the timings will be faster, but they may not be significantly faster.
