Hello everyone!
First of all I would like to thank you all for viewing this post, and a special thank you to those who took the time out to help me out with building my first ever gaming rig.
After months of researching the right hardware from various sites, I have made a list of the components which I have shortlisted to include in my build. Any comments and/or suggestions with regards to the compatibility and longevity of my PC.
THE LIST:::
1. Casing | Cooler Master Scout 2
2. PSU | Corsair AX760
3. Motherboard | GA Z77X UD5H (I was also thinking about UD3H, but whichever is more compatible with the other hardware)
4. Processor | i7 3770K 3rd gen
5. Graphics Card | GTX 770
6. Ram | Corsair 8GB 1600Mhz
7. Cooling System | Cooler Master H100i
8. HDD | 1TB (Any available brand)
9. SSD | 256GB (any available brand)
....................................
I had uploaded the above specs onto a website gooeypc.com. It mentioned that my graphics card cannot be mounted onto the motherboard i.e. compatibility issues. This is quite strange because both are from Gigabyte and are more or less new hardware, so I found that abit strange.
Another question, do you all think is is a good gaming rig that would last me for about 3-4 years to come? I dont have that much money to constantly spend on upgrading my PC so i would like this to last me for years to come. Any and all help will be appreciated !
I had posted a thread seeking help for a build and one user was kind enought to help me out... the link is here http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1759603/configuration.html
I have spent far too long researching on hardware, I now need a gaming PC that I can be proud of building myself, and most of all a rig that is fully compatible and wont let me down.
Thanks all!
