New Build, any other recommendations? Trying to keep it within my budget

IIAJaayII · Jan 25, 2014

Hey guys, thinking about this build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2Hxd1
Does anyone want to add anything, or do you think its a good build / what to get rid off and add instead I want to try to keep it under 1100$ this time.

I think if you cut back on the psu a bit, the paste, and the tower you could maybe get a 780 in there...only *recommendation*, since that's going to help with gaming more than anything else in the build..what exactly are u usin the rig for? just games?

Why the 750W PSU? With one GTX 770 a 650W PSU will do all right, and with two GTX 770 you should have 850W.

Nice build you dont forget an hdd or ssd though. At that same price point, I would go with the Silverstone power supply

Cut the ram back to 8gig and put the extra money into something else. A gaming rig is not going to need any more than 8gig it would just be a overkill.

Unless you are gaming on a resolution greater than 1080p a single GTX 770 will do just fine. No need for a GTX 780 it would be overkill for 1080p.

bryonhowley :

a 780 will still beat a 770...and leaves 14K as a better option too. just saying the budget allows it.

Thanks for the help guys, Update: I really didn't fully think about it, my mistake. But I decided to increase my budget and getting a 1440p, I was wondering if you guys think I should get a 780 / ti, r290x, or wait till the 800 lineup. What card do you guys recommend that will has 2 or so generations within a bang for buck value. I appreciate it, and I picked a 750w PSU in case i ever decided to SLI / Crossfire.

I plan to OC the CPU, the Use of the new build will be used for Gaming and Photoshop. With Max to high settings with 45+ FPS (Goal). Trying really hard not to go over 1500$.

If its in your budget snag that 780

1440p you want a 780 or a 780ti if you can. the 770 can handle it but the frames will take a hit
