What can my future PC do?

theawolwarrior · Dec 3, 2013

Hey guy I ordered this PC in Black Friday and it will be arriving this Friday, first off id like to thank this amazing community of members who helped me pick out th parts and answered all of my stupid question, I'm afraid I have to ask alittle more so here we go with the specs:
I5 4670k CPU
Gtx 770 OC
8 gb ram
120 gb ssd
1 tb hdd
Corsair 400r case
Z87 sabertooth
750 watt psu

The questions are:
-how well will this build run games like crisis 3 and bf4?
-how well will this build live stream?
-opinions about parts?
-what can I expect it to feel like for ppl who have similar parts?
-lastly any build tips to make me less nervouse about this whole thing?

Thanks guys

It should max all those games.
Live streaming will be a breeze.
It will feel fast and game very well.
I might recommend a slightly cheaper motherboard as the sabertooth board tend to be overpriced.

The only reason I picked the saber tooth was because I heard it is a very reliable motherboard and it's also hard to break, I tried to pick parts that are easy to build, and thanks for the inspiration of how good the PC will do!

The sabertooth boards overheat easily due to the "thermal armor". It is a hoax, a marketing ploy. Get a board for $75 less. ASUS is good as is Gigabyte. You won't break the motherboard. Don't worry about that.

Well the sad part is I already ordered last Friday, but hopefully it won't break or mess up anything, I thoght that if I buy the pricy board it will be better, again I'm a newbie with this stuff

Well, buying pricey gets you quality (sometimes) but it also gets you very similar boards to lower priced boards that don't look flashy. That board is designed for MASSIVE overclocking of the CPU. Not really for the average build. You could have saved $85 and lost zero performance or quality.

Talking about overclocking, how much could I overclock that CPU with a cooler master 212 EVO?

tiny voices · Dec 3, 2013

Some definitely. Don't expect to to get any performance increase from overclocking though. It is a hobby. On high end CPUs that can easily max all games at stock settings, overclocking does nothing. Just for fun.

You might want to consider getting another 8GB of RAM. If you only have a game running you'll be fine, but if you want other apps open or browser windows open or whatever open at the same then you'll start paging. 8GB isn't what it used to be!

Oh alright haha, what about some build tips? First timer here and I've actauly watched a bunch of videos on how to build, but I'm still nervous with thermal past, installing CPU, and also cable management!

theawolwarrior · Dec 3, 2013

I am defenetly going to upgrade, more ram, another gpu, more hard drives so thanks for the advice

tiny voices · Dec 3, 2013

You don't need more RAM. There is no benefit to more than 8gb RAM in gaming and won't be for years. Its a waste.

Just take your time with the build. Everything will go fine.
