I possibly found a buyer and now my budget is about 2760$

Philip1997 · Dec 13, 2013

I am gonna buy this rig, unless you guys have some improvements, or some money i can save!

I want this system to be pretty future proof and run most games at ultra with stable FPS and no lag

Anyways, here's the rig:
i7-4771
2TB HDD, and 250GB SAMSUNG SSD
16GB Kingston RAM
GTX 780 3GB
750W Seasonic PSU
Cisco wireless network card USB
Asus Z87-A
Is this futureproof enough, and is it too good or bad?
Will it max out games?
THANKS

Looks good and will max out games. I would though get the 4770K because it can overclock.

Or get a B85 chipset since you can't OC that processor. Will have basically the same functions just No oc and will save money. I would either get the K model, or change boards.

you should be good....although i would suggest you spent a little bit more and get either:

or

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131989R

a lot of people are having problems with the Asus Z87-A

Tho probably not the open box version of the hero

siddharthmukul007 · Dec 13, 2013

he he he...yeah....surely not the open box....just poped up as price order (ascending)

Philip1997 · Dec 14, 2013

Would it be better to get i5-4670?
I don't know how to overclock, and don't wanna ruin my pc?
Isn't overclocking bad for the system?
Without the Asus Z87-A i can't get SLI 780's?

Philip1997 · Dec 14, 2013

I'm gonna do gaming and possibly some editing on it

Philip1997 · Dec 14, 2013

I want to be able to put another GTX 780 in it at some point

And i don't want to overclock my processor, if it's bad for the lifetime of my system

Is overclocking even worth doing?

siddharthmukul007 · Dec 14, 2013

if you want to do a bit a photo and video editing....the i7 is perfect....but if it id just for gaming the i5 will suffice

as for the motherboard, if you are looking to save some money you can go for:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128590

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157373

if you like to sli or cfx

oc ing indeed helps a lot.....as for the life of the system,it surely effects a bit (nothing alarming if you don't overdo it)

Philip1997 · Dec 14, 2013

Alright, i still don't get why the ASUS Z87-A is so bad?

siddharthmukul007 · Dec 14, 2013

ASUS Z87-A is not all bad....just that a lot of people here are having troubles with it.

you will understand better if you become a regular visitor of tom's

rolli59 · Dec 14, 2013

There is nothing wrong with the ASUS Z87-A and I have not seen any more problems with it than other boards in here. It is what it is an entry Z87 board supports Dual GPU's but is not a top overclocker. At std clocks or with a mild overclock it works fine.
