Hey guys,

I'm thinking of upgrading my pc but I'm not into building from scratch. So is Cyberpower a good choice? This is my pc I customized :

I am mainly going to use it for schooling and playing games like Bf3, Fifa 14, Shogun 2, Rome 2, and other similar games! Feel free to make any suggestions or alterations! Thanks in advance.

Dont opt for a haswell over ivy
Reasons
1. Only 5-10% marginal increase in haswell from ivy
2.haswell produces more heat than 6 core sandy bridge e processors so ivy cpu would b better overclocker
3.there is no news that the 1150 socket would support further generation processors as broadwell would be bringin ddr4 most probably so it will be a new mobo

Not a bad system, but of course it's more expensive than building it yourself.

Also note that you selected liquid cooling and it's more maintenance than air cooling. You could change to CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Evo and save 59$ and still get great cooling.

Ok! So the Ivy processor's socket will support future generations? And is memory express a good choice to completely customize?

Thanks I will look into that! But how much more expensive is this than building myself?

Honestly I would probably build it myself but I have no experience from starting from scratch!

No offence but i would disagree to ur last 2 points
yes, Haswell does run hotter, but not more than those massive 6 core CPUs
and what does RAM have to do with socket?
