How will this Work out?(PC Build)

Mortale · Feb 22, 2014

Hello I've decide to scrape up some more cash to build a new pc. I have these parts selected already and shipped. I was wondering to many people if this was a decent computer as to me it seems perfect and optimal. I was wondering what coolants/ should i replace the fans and with what as I don't usually overclock my PC. Here it is

why aren't you getting a 4th gen i5?

Mortale · Feb 22, 2014

I asked my cousin for help and he recommended this i5 for my budget range(Already exceeded it as my budget was $1000.) I also didn't want the integrated graphics and the ivy bridge is also greatly reviewed with the quad core, as I multitask to the extreme. Was my choice that bad on the i5?

so for everything except an OS your budget is $1000?

Mortale · Feb 22, 2014

Well, it was $1000 but as you see. It went overboard a bit.... I have already bought windows 7 OS Thankfully as I just don't want 8 and Ubuntu doesn't work for all games sadly. The accesories like the Steel Series costed me only $12 cuz i bought a refurbished one and had $30 newegg giftcard, however the keyboard still costed $54(Bought an open box one from amazon). The diamondback 3G i've had for awhile now. I was just worried that my Rosewill wireless adapter wouldn't work as I don't want to have my ethernet go to the upstairs OR open a hole in the wall to connect. Do you think the 550W Will be enough? Ik if I overclocked it( probably won't until buy new CPU Fan) id get around 3.6 ghz. And as I've said I've bought the parts and am in the process of building it. I just wanted to know if I should overclock or replace the fans as I'm already over budget,and the issue with the wireless. Ik that i have 3 usb ports( 2 2.0s and 1 3.0s) and I know i can use my keyboard and mouse on the 2.0s i was just curious if the USB Adapter would have issues with the 3.0
This is my first build which is why i was curious.
