Hello everyone!
I have visited this forum a thousand times for numerous issues, but this time I have a question of my own. First of all, excuse me for any language mistakes I make, I am not a native speaker.
Thing is, I am planning to buy a new gaming budget rig. Here are the parts so far:
CPU: AMD AM3+ FX-8350 Box (FD8350FRHKBOX)
MoBo: Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 Mod SoAM3+ GBT (970/ATX)
PSU: XFX Core Edition PRO550W P1-550S-XXB9
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 - GHz Edition
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB WD10EZEX 7200rpm 64MB
RAM: G.Skill DIMM 8 GB DDR3-1600 Kit (F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL)
Case: Cooler Master Elite 431 Plus + Window (RC-431P-KWN2)
DVD: CD DVRW Samsung SH-224BB/BEBE
I'm sorry for posting so many details, but since I am from Greece, i don't know if the versions of the items available here are the same around the globe.
So, here are my questions:
1) Will the motherboard have any compatibility issues with the other parts (e.g. CPU/RAM)? I have read many articles stating OCing issues with this mobo.
2) Is the PSU good enough for this system?
3) Will this case (or any midi-case for that matter) fit these parts, or do I have to look specifically at the dimensions? (Note: I will be buying a cooler for the CPU later this year, for OCing purposes).
4) Recommended cooler for this CPU (for oc purposes)?
5) What's your opinion about the build in general? Over here I will get it for about 700€.
6) (changed) I am between these monitors:
LG 23EA53V
LG 23EA63V
LG 24EA53VQ (24")
They are about the same price (the 24" about 10€ more than the others)
Which one would you suggest?
(I care more for quality than for size, that's why I am not going straight for the 24", I am having a hard time going through LG's site and comparing them)
I am sorry for the length of my question, it's true that I have been looking into the best rig I can get for some time, and I thought i should ask the pros.
Thanks to everyone that will spare their time to help me!
