Ok so here I am making another AMD build for myself because i sold my last one to my Aunt ahaahahahh so i have grouped up a few things i want to have this time i would really appreciate to have some advises here



CPU: AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core Processor

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9

Motherboard: Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 ATX AM3

Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

Storage: Western Digital WD SE 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Video Card: Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 2GB GHZ Edition Video Card

Case: Cooler Master HAF 912 Combat Mid Tower Case

Power Supply: Corsair CX600w

Optical Drive: Any sata DVD/CD Writer

Monitor: BenQ RL2450HT or BenQ RL2455HM Monitor

gonna cost me somewhere around $1200 after getting a speaker and an ups too


so here i am a bit confused about the power supply and the monitor as to go with which ones
for the psu i was thinking of something below $80 and for the monitor something below $200 and those are what I came up with, maybe if someone knows some other better monitors under $200 and would like to share the info I'll really appreciate it, as for the psu i have chosen i am stil wondering will it be able to handle both the GPU requirements and a little bit of OC on the processor

[I am Assuming you're from India.]

The motherboard is very bad for overclocking. That too an 8core FX chip. Upgrade the motherboard to m5a99fx pro r2.0

Also i'd recommend this montior , [i am using it and can vouch for it]: Dell S2240L , it's available for 9,000rs

Also no point getting the 7870, get the R9-270X for 15,500rs

or if you can extend the budget

thx for the advice bro but i dont think i'll be upgrading to r9-270x there is'nt much difference in the performance for the money i'll pay and i dont think i'll go for the r9-280 either i guess till 7870 ghz edition is available in the market i'll go for it
and i was really considering to change the mobo i guess the pro one should be good enough for me

The 270X is cheaper than a 7870 [In India] and it performs 10% faster.



Thats why i suggested the Dell S2240L
