Building a Pc need help please

LunaSea · Apr 24, 2014

Hello all ,

I'm building a new rig soon and have a list of what I'm buying though I need some help with what else I will need ! Alright so

Motherboard - MSI Z87-GD65
Processor - I7 4770K
GPU - GeForce 780
RAM. - 16gb cheapest I can find
HD - Western 1tb
SSD. - 120gb

I just need to know what case is good for that setup and what cooling gear I need etc & anything I have missed

How much do you have to spend on the rest of the parts?

LunaSea · Apr 24, 2014

Probably about 500 - 600 dorraz

Aspire77360 · Apr 24, 2014

I would reccomend a NZXT H440. You could then make a custom watercooled loop if you have that much money to spend. PSU would then be a Corsair AX860i

What is this computer for? If only gaming then you only need i5/8gb ram

numanator · Apr 24, 2014

Also make sure the ram is 1.5v to be compatible with your cpu/mobo.

I would like to run the division and watchdogs in ultra smoothly and I'm starting a game dev course so need some beefy hardware

LunaSea · Apr 24, 2014

How hard is it to run your own watercolor loop?

Aspire77360 · Apr 25, 2014

Reasonably hard and quite expensive to set up, but there are sevreal threads and videos on youtube that will help

Anyone heard of this ram before?

Rubbish. As it is not branded, it is probably factory rejects. Best go for quality RAM from companies like Corsair or G-Skill

So I was browsing ebay and found this ....

It's what I would like to spend on a build and it has a gtx 780ti! witch are 1500 alone, would I be better off with this build ?

LunaSea :

The motherboard is likely not Z87 / bad at overclocking. It is always cheaper to build your own (99/100 times)

EDIT: it has a H87 mobo, so yeah you cant even overclock.... Lame sales pitch tbh. Just build you own.

780 ti's are like ~$700?
