Will these components work together?

ptrelka · Jan 9, 2014

I have a
Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD SATA 6 Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive ST2000DM001

Corsair Vengeance 8GB (1x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10)

Intel Core i5-4670K Quad-Core Desktop Processor 3.4 GHZ 6 MB Cache - BX80646I54670K

EVGA GeForce GTX760 SuperClocked w/EVGA ACX Cooler 2GB GDDR5 256bit, Dual-Link DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI,DP, SLI Ready Graphics Card (02G-P4-2765-KR) Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2765-KR

and a Asus p7p55d-e Mother Board and I was just wondering if all these parts are compatible and if these components would run Skyrim on ultra with some heavy texture mods.

P.S. I am about to build my first pc and was wondering if you guys had some tips for me. Like should I get a hard drive and an ssd or a hybrid, what should I be careful of when building the pc, etc.

Everything is compatible except your motherboard. You need an 1150 socket. Once you get an 1150, Skyrim will run on ultra. D/L the geforce experience for the 760 and work with the recommended settings first then tweak and check FPS until you get the highest quality you can with the lowest FPS you will settle for.

d1rtydeedz :

what do i need the 1150 socket for? what is not working on this motherboard?

d1rtydeedz · Jan 12, 2014

Your motherboard is an 1156 socket type [old technology]. The i5-4000 series is 1150 socket. You really should upgrade your motherboard. What's your budget?

d1rtydeedz :

Like $1000 dollars or so. My brother said I could have this motherboard and I was just hoping I get slide by with it. Thanks for the information though.

d1rtydeedz · Jan 12, 2014

Let me rephrase, what is your budget for the mother board?

ptrelka · Jan 12, 2014

d1rtydeedz :

150 maybe 200

d1rtydeedz · Jan 12, 2014

That's plenty, let me take a look and send you some links.

Alright, from the upper end of your price range:

Still great, and from the lower end of your price range:

These are all reputable brands, great performance, rock solid.

There's no need to go higher than $150.00, you can get a decent mobo for $100.00. I didn't go higher then $150.00 in the above links. If you really want to spend more, you may just be buying extras you'd never use.
