Hello,
I have recently decided to build my own computer to save on costs of buying one from PC World.
The questions I have are regarding whether the parts will work with each other; and the PSU requirements, as a lot of the parts I have decided on I cannot easily find the actual power or wattage requirements.
Furthermore, if anything is missing could you let me know?
Here is a list detailing the parts I have chosen (for the build only, no peripherals), I think it works, its just my confusion over the GPU, power and motherboard compatibility.
1) AMD FX8350 Black Edition 8 Core Processor (4.0/4.2GHz, 8MB Level 3 Cache, 8MB Level 2 Cache, Socket AM3+, 125W, Retail Boxed)
2) Sapphire AMD R9 270X OC 4GB 256 Bit GDDR5 Lite Retail Pci-E Graphics Card
3) HyperX Genesis 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 CL9 DIMM Memory Kit (2 x 4 GB) - XMP Ready
4) Corsair CX750 Builder Series CX 750W ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Bronze PSU
5) Asrock Socket AM3+ 970 Extreme4 5200MT/S Motherboard
6) Cooler Master Hyper T4 CPU Cooler
7) NZXT Technologies H2 Classic Silent Midtower Chassis CS-NT-H2-B (Black)
8) Asus Blu-ray Writer Drive (S-ATA, BD-R: 12x, DVDR: 16x, CD-R: 48x, Drag and Burn, QTS Technology)
9) Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound 3.5g Tube
The GPU has written on the description OC does this mean it is over-clocked, or it can be over-clocked; would this impact power consumption?
All of these components are on Amazon.co.uk, and I literally just copied and pasted the product name off the website.
Thanks for reading my thread, if you have any answers please contact me.
Thanks.
