Hi,
I'm planning a build with the following parts:
CASE: Antec GX700 - $73
CPU: 4670k/8320 - $264/$179
MOBO: AsRock Z87 extreme3/ASUS M5A97-EVO R2 - $149/$125
COOLER: Hyper 212 EVO - $34
GPU: HIS 270X IceQ Boost - $253
SSD: Samsung 840 Evo 120GB - $102
PSU: Antec HCG 750W - $138
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws-X 8GB - $87
DVD: random optical drive - $20
TOTAL: $1126/$1010
Prices from www.allneeds.com.au which is typical for here.
Of course these prices will all be high to Americans (as they are Australian). So comparing more the ratio of spending between components what do you think should have a greater amount of the budget?
(I was originally looking at a 280X ($369) but $110 for 20% improvement... not so sure.)
I suppose the main problem is that I don't have a set budget. Anyway, what are your opinions?
Although originally planning the build in the next couple of weeks I am now postponing it for a month or so.
