Hello there, first let me say that I am new to posting on this website, so if I break some unwritten rules or something, don't hesitate to let me know!
Anyways, my name is Matt, and I plan to construct my first build soon. Now I've done the standard research, but with only acquired knowledge and no real practical knowledge on the subject, I was hoping some far more experienced users could give me some pointers. Are these components all compatible? Will I be bottlenecking anything?
P.S. This is a gaming build, and my budget is $1000.
CPU - Intel i5 4670k (if I decide to overclock, I don't wanna have to upgrade cpu. so K from the start) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CO8TBOW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_8?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
GPU - Asus GTX 760 -
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DBPKEOI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_6?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AN8LN2YPKS7DF
Mobo - MSI B75
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008S8WA18/ref=ox_sc_act_title_7?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
RAM - Standard Corsair Vengeance 4Gbx2 ddr3 @ 1600mhz (no link required, right?)
HDD - Seagate Baracuda 1TB
Power Supply - Corsair CX Series 500w modular Power Supply
**I have some questions here. Is 500w enough to efficiently power my system?
Case - NZXT Phantom 410 in white. This will easily fit all my components, hopefully?
Also, I might pick up an aftermarket heat sink in the form of the CoolerMaster Hyper212 plus, or maybe evo. Let me know what you guys think.
Again, this is my first ever build so for all I know, these components could blow up when used in conjunction. Okay, i'm not an idiot and I know that probably won't happen, but you get the point. My knowledge on the subject is, at best, basic. So Thank You so much in advance for any tips/pointers/advice/suggestions.
So please, if you have any thoughts at all please post. I would love to hear them. Thank you so much for reading and have a great day.
