Hello Everyone, I need a little help with a gamin/HT Mini ITX build.
Here's what I have so far: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/fbermea/saved/3KO2
And below is other relevant information:
Approximate Purchase Date: April 2014
Budget Range: (e.g.: $900 - $1,100): After Rebates & Shipping
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming, streaming movies, working (3 screens at a time)
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Amazon.com, newegg.com, ncix.com, bestbuy.com
Location: Austin, Texas
Overclocking: No
Additional Comments: This is my first build. Will this hardware work together and fit inside a mini itx case?
I'd also like this build to play blue-ray disks. Here's the optical drive I plan to purchase:
Panasonic UJ240 6x Blu-ray Burner BD-RE/8x DVD±RW DL SATA Drive (Black)
Link: http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-UJ240-Blu-ray-Burner-DVD%C2%B1RW/dp/B003AXW2YQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1392397315&sr=1-1&keywords=Panasonic+UJ240+6x+Blu-ray+Burner+BD-RE%2F8x+DVD%C2%B1RW+DL+SATA+Drive+%28Black%29
Any other blu-ray player suggestions for this build?
I'm trying to get the most bang for my buck. Will there be a noticeable difference in performance between i5 and i7 CPUs?
Do I need the cooler for this build?
Here's what I put together, but I'm very open for suggestions: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/fbermea/saved/3KO2
Thanks!
