Hello everyone,

I'm in the process of building a PC for gaming. I'll mostly be playing Skyrim with mods. The mods I'm looking at are texture mods like H 2K, Static Mesh Improvement, UNP female body, Better Males, Beards, Brows, Eyes of Beauty, things of that nature with CoT and RLO, possibly an ENB but not sure. I'm also planning to use Frostfall, Realistic Needs, Convenient Horses and an array of armor and weapons mods, some are high res as well, like Evil Mastermind armor and JaySus Swards.

What I'm wondering is if this setup will handle my planned 50 or so mods. I'm pretty new to PC gaming, but have been researching for the past month on what works best with Skyrim. I might play other games, but Skyrim is my main focus.

Thanks in advance for any advice you might have, or yelling at me because some components don't work together. :D

I'm also in Australia and plan to buy from PC Case Gear.

Cheers!
Nelly

build looks good only two points to look out for. one the ram that used be care full of the height of the heat spreaders. if there to tall with some aftermarket cpu coolers you loose the two back ram slots.
use ones like gskill aires or lp cosair 1600 or faster at 1.5v.
the only other issue is the power supply here in the use we use cosair or seasonic or a rebranded seasonic for gaming rigs. (know to have less issues over time). I would also if this rig going to do long long game times and be stress out to bump up the power supply to 750w. it be overkill for one gpu but under stress it run cooler and be more stable less chance of your rig locking up when stressed.

Firstly, thank you for answering, mate. :)

Would this RAM be fine?

I thought Antec was made by Seasonic? I might be getting my PSUs mixed up, though. haha. Too much information out there. My brain is about to explode trying to sort all this out. :pt1cable:

But would this PSU be better?
