Hi All,
So this will be my first build ever after deciding consoles just did not do it for me anymore Here is what i am building after much research.
Advantage Case, cheap i know but the reviews on this with its 4 fan system are pretty incredible as far as cooling and reliability goes, some reviews stating its better than there more profile expensive cases. Water cooled ready but from the reviews i have read this just don't need it.
Going inside xD
AMD FX 8350 8 core black edition, after much research this seems to be right up there
Sabertooth FX990 R2, once again looked at many boards but the rating on this just swayed me to it i have not found a site where it's ratings go below 9.2
2 x 8GB corsair DDR3, 1600 ram sticks , compatible with the board and also great reviews
XFX 750 80+ rated PSU
I have purchased windows 8.1, i know some people hate it but the reviews again are just as mixed as any microsoft OS, so i bought this one
Now with regards to the graphics cards i think i may put 2 into this, Funds right now wont allow this SO do i get the GTX 660ti or HD 7950 and twin them up later, My budget for the cards has dwindled due to unforeseen circumstances otherwise i would have gone more extreme.
Will my psu cope with 2 doubled up at a later date or do i just get a 1000w psu when i upgrade ??
Also the games i will be playing will be GTA IV, Fifa 15 when its out 14 for now, COD ghosts, maybe BF4 and some MMORGS, will these cards handle them solo for now and will adding the extra really make it that much better at a later date.
Thanks for reading any input would be good pro's and cons and criticism is always valued by me in a positive way.
