Hey guys, I need your help. I have spent around a month looking at reviews, and comparisons on parts to build a system i can keep for a long time. Last time I built a system I was pretty broke, so I want to get one now that will be able to run anything i throw at it for the next couple of years.
This PC will be used more for gaming with games like SC2/ BF4/ TitanFall (when it comes out)/ and so on. I also want to be able to use iTunes when I play Starcraft 2 which i hear is harder on Windows. I do use my computer as my media center which is why i chose such a big hard drive.
Here is what i use:
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($279.99 @ Micro Center)
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14 65.0 CFM CPU Cooler ($73.75 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Hero ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($189.99 @ NCIX US)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LP 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($144.99 @ Amazon)
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" Solid State Disk ($169.98 @ OutletPC)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($114.99 @ Newegg)
Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 780 3GB Video Card ($505.91 @ Newegg)
Case: Corsair 600T Mesh (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case ($139.99 @ Newegg)
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($94.99 @ NCIX US)
Optical Drive: LG WH16NS40 Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer ($75.98 @ Newegg)
Monitor: Asus VG248QE 144Hz 24.0" Monitor ($263.99 @ Amazon)
Total: $2080.54
