Hello everyone!
I am building a computer to do a little bit of everything, soft core gaming (maybe some fps but nothing too high quality), watching videos, using photoshop, office, and some music software. I usually run multiple programs at once, and like to keep my computer busy. I would like to use a pretty high resolution on my screen maybe a 27 inch monitor.
I made a list on newegg and I came up with this:
Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K
ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Rosewill CHALLENGER Black Gaming ATX Mid Tower Computer Case, comes with Three Fans-1x Front Blue LED 120mm Fan, 1x Top 140mm Fan,1x Rear 120mm Fan, option Fans-2x Side 120mm Fan
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL
Corsair Force Series GS CSSD-F128GBGS-BK 2.5" 128GB SATA III Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Seagate Pipeline HD ST1000VM002 1TB 5900 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
SAPPHIRE 100358L Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card
LG Black Blu-ray Drive SATA Model UH12NS30 - OEM
CORSAIR Builder Series CX500 500W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply
As you can see I would like to have both a SSD and a regulard HDD. I am a rookie when it comes to most of this stuff, but I did do some research to make sure stuff fits. Is anything on this list not compatible? Will I need more than 4gb of RAM? Will the graphics card run a newer game on decent settings? Is any of this stuff overkill for what I am trying to do?
Thanks for looking over my post I appreciate any responses, and have a good day.
