Hey everyone,

I'm recently building a new PC. These are the components I would go for and I was wondering if they are compatible with each other and fit in the case I'm buying. I think the answer is positive but before I order everything I would like to check with you guys.

My parts:
Spoiler

ASUS H81M-E
eVGA GeForce GTX 760 ACX
Samsung SH-224DB
Corsair Graphite Series 230T Window
DeepCool GammaXX 300 (CPU cooler)
Corsair VS650 (650Watt)
Corsair Vengeance (2x4Gb)
Western Digital Red WD10EFRX (1T)
Intel Core i5 4670 / 3.4 GHz


Any remarks on the build are always helpful.
Thanks in advance!

Yes it will all work out flawlessly :) , but I would give you a few suggestions. Go for a regular 7200 Seagate 1TB HDD since it's a couple bucks cheaper and works great (I use it personally) & maybe a motherboard with SLI support or a smaller PSU if you're not going to be doing any SLI. If you're not going SLI you can use CORSAIR CSM Series CS450M & if you plan to SLI you can use a ASRock Z87 Extreme4 motherboard & probably Hyper 212 EVO for your cpu cooling :)

Hi,
Every thing is compatible, just don't get WD RED. That HDD is more for storage than using it for OS. Better get the WD Caviar Blue or Seagate Baracuda, they are much faster HDDs.

Thank you for the fast responses and the help you offer.

As for the HD, I would go for Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 then.

I'm not really interested in SLI since I can't afford 2 GPU's. So I guess I should get a smaller CPU?

The Seagate is good, no need for changing the CPU. i5 4670 is perfect

Great. Last question...
Would my gaming experience increase drastically if I would go with the GTX 770 instead of GTX 760?

Yes, GTX 770 is much more powerful, but more expensive. GTX 760 is still good option for 1080p gaming. GTX 770 will give you more futureproof overall gaming experience

Is it still viable for gaming if I change the processor for a Intel Core i5 4570 / 3.2 GHz...
And then go for a eVGA GeForce GTX 770 ACX?

Not much difference between i5 4670 and i5 4570 or the cheapest i5 4430. Any one of them will do the same job in gaming.
