Build with 7950 and i5 3570k?

Castanosaur · Aug 24, 2013

Hey everyone, my current build with an fx 6300 and a radeon 7950 is at the $650 range and I'm looking for more with the 3570k. Can anyone suggest me a build with the i5 3570k and the radeon 7950 or the nvidia equivalent of that card at the same price range? And if I go with the i5, what differences will I see in terms of performance?

No. You can't expect a 3570k and 7950 at the $650 range unless you plan to skimp on all the other parts.
You already have a nice build, only thing I would change is the psu. The Corsair CX non-modular series are crap.
Get this one instead: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1550sxxb9
It's more expensive but definitely worth it for the extra quality you're getting.

Seconded, but they're not crap. It's just that they're average. They're tier 3s. which are average, they'll supply what they're rated for safely, but no more, no less.
