I am getting ready to build my first computer. I have decided on some components, but not all and it's essential I order the correct parts because I am living in a foreign country and returning parts will be close to impossible.
So far I have decided on the following: (I am not installing an HDD or Optical Drive)
Case: ??
MB: Asus Mini-iTx Z87I-PRO iBORA
RAM: G.SKILL DDR3 8G PC3-19200
GPU: AMD R-280x
CPU: Intel i5 4670K
PSU: ???
HD: Samsung 840 Evo SSD 250MB
Now, i have a few questions about the build. One, as far as overclocking is concerned, are the RAM, GPU, and CPU good choices. I know a bit about RAM speeds, but have heard that overclocking RAM can make little to no difference at all. Maybe this particular RAM selection is overkill.
Secondly, I am between the Bitfenix Prodigy and the CoolerMaster 130 for cases. I've seen reviews and understand their differences pretty well, but I am interested in water-cooling so I am leaning towards the BfP.
Lastly, I need to be spot on with the PSU i buy and im guessing that i'll need around 600W to OC.
I would do a DIY water-cooling system, but the parts are hard to come by so I would need to settle for all-in-one parts, though I get the impression that if you want to run water to a block on your GPU it is only DIY.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
