Hey guys. I am going to be buying a new computer this year. I was looking on Centre-com's custom build section and i put together these things. Will they all work together to make a nice high(ish) end Gaming PC that will last me for a while?


CPU- Intel i5 4760K
MOBO- MSI G45 Z87 Gaming motherboard
RAM-G.SKILL RipjawsX DDR3 16GB
HDD-WD20EZRX Western Digital 2TB SATAIII
Case- ThermalTake R21 Mid Tower Chassis
PSU- ThermalTake Toughpower 750W
SSD- Samsung 840 EVO Series 120GB
GPU- Gigabyte nVidia GTX 770 OC2GB

I added a 30 Dollar Optical drive from LG and the 90 dollar assembly labour and it came to $1620.50

Are any of these parts not gonna work? Will anything hold me back. And any suggestions? Thanks guys :)))

I believe that you'll be very happy with that build
One thing that I noticed was the 16GB of ram, at the moment most games don't even use 8gb of ram so unless you are doing a lot of video editting / photoshop then the 16gb of ram may not be used to it's full potential
Up to you though
My build is quite similar with 8gb and havn't had any issues with any games so far (playing at 1920x1080)

But aside from that it looks like you have a very nice build there

All of your parts are compatible, and you should be able to play games at 1080p without issues. I would go for the 256GB SSD though, 128 fills up very quickly. Also, a 750w PSU is way more than you need for that system. You'd be fine with about 500. If you plan to add another 770 at some point though, the 750 would be perfect.

Alright thanks guys. So i could pay less and downsize to 8gb of RAM and maybe buy a 2nd 770. I am 14 turning 15 and getting a job as soon as possible so i can hopefully pay for this by then end of the year. I want something to last me.
