hi everyone.. here is my first rig for gaming,, I won't discuss prices just because where I live (Dubai) prices would be up to + 20-25% more than usual.
So here is :

CPU :4670k
CPU: cooling : hyper 212 evo
Mobo: ASUS Z87-PRO
RAM :Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) 1600MHz Low Profile
GPU :Asus Radeon R9 280X DirectCU 2 TOP
SSD : 120 GB Samsung 840 SATAIII EVO
HDD : WD FAEX 1TB BLACK EDITION
PSU : SEASONIC X 650W GOLD
CASE: Corsair Graphite C600T MIDTOWER

my question is whether these components will fit in that case I mentioned? I'm planning to overclock slightly to 4.4 max so do I need more fans and what do you think about that case generally..?


Many thanks in advance

I would always recommend corsairs quiet edition fans as well as their performance edition, they perform excellent and you get 2fans per pack, I would also recommend noctua fans although they perform excellent aswell they are much more pricy!

And yes your build will last you a good few years before you need to worry about any upgrades, your parts are good and with all the new Mantle drivers AMD are going to release performance GPU wise will increase over a number of new titles.
As for the $100 if you had some money around I would save it to be honest, PC wise for upgrading you won't get any good parts really for $100 although I suppose you could buy yourself a half decent keyboard/mouse or a new headset, I use the platonics 780 and...

Well all your parts are compatible and it's a good build, I personally would chose a different case, a full ATX tower case would be better for your temperatures and your GPU and CPU cooler will not be cramped, although it would work none the less, I do recommend more fans because it will dramatically decrease your temperatures.

Hope I helped :)

well thank you for reply in first place,, If I just sticked with the case if there any suitable fans you advise?
Another thing do you think this build would stand for few years gaming sake..?
I mean if I have additional 100 $ where should it go as a useful upgrade?
at last what ideal ups would serve this build? would 1000VA be enough? or I have to go with 1500VA?
In the store I found this ups would it do the job?

As for the ups the one you are looking at is good, I read a lot of reviews and about 98% were positive!

Have a great day, Hope I Helped! :)
