Hi, recently I bought an Intel Core i3-4130. Should arrive in 2 weeks or so, so I'm planning on ordering some more parts soon. This computer will be used for gaming, mostly, also some light ZBrush and 3dsMax work. Anyways, my question is, are these parts the best I could get for the price, and would they all work together the best they could? I've researched a lot but the amount of info I've read so far is overwhelming and I'm stuck. I need help. Pardon the
Motherboard: ASUS H81M-C/CSM: about $78: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132043
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 4GB: about $45: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231720
PSU: Corsair Builder Series CX 500: about $85: http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Builder-Series-Watt-CX500/dp/B0092ML0MY
Graphics Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti. Though I'll be getting this a month after. Looking for a decent card at the less than $140 price range, though could buy something a lot better at a higher price range (not that high though, let's say less than $200)
HDD: WD Red 2 TB NAS Hard Drive: $114: http://www.amazon.com/WD-Red-NAS-Hard-Drive/dp/B008JJLZ7G/ , I could do with a 500gb HDD, then upgrade when necessary
As for an OS, I already have a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, and I'm thinking about getting my case here as the shipping cost would kill me on anything more than 5 pounds. I'm getting these shipped in at $7 a pound, so it's literally killing me. Looking to cut back on as much as I can, any suggestions would be appreciated.
