Hi, I currently own: http://bit.ly/18tHcQ6 and I'm starting to get seriously into gaming and want to have a computer that can run games on high settings!
I plan on salvaging the CPU - i5 3450 3.1 quad core, the ram - 8 gb ddr3-1600, and the disc drive from the HP, I also have a hard drive laying around that I believe can use (not sure if I'll be able to re-use the hard drive from my HP)
So what it comes down to is, I need a motherboard, a graphics card, a PSU and a case. This is what I have figured out on my own, but I am totally open to suggestions.
Current partslist:
Processor: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/intel-cpu-bx80637i53450 (owned)
Cooler: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rrb10212pg1
Motherboard: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-p8z77vlk
Memory: unable to figure out brand, but 8gb ddr3-1600 (owned)
Storage: Hitachi 1TB currently in my HP, can I reuse it? (owned)
Videocard: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/sapphire-video-card-100354oc2l
Case: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-case-200r
PSU: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/ultra-power-supply-lsp650
Is there anything I'm forgetting? I appreciate any help.
Edit 1: PSU will be changed to something more reliable (thanks jimthenagual)
