I'm in need of some people with knowledge in building computers... I'm looking to create a second '' test build '' for gaming with i7-4770K or i7-4930K with Corsair Air 540 PC Case including a GTX 780 Ti . . . I'm planning future builds and will decide in the end what I want between what I've done so far.


I'm looking for a black and white design such as this one: http://pcpartpicker.com/b/DCQ7YJ


My maximum budget is $2000 CAD. Please use http://ca.pcpartpicker.com !

The only components missing are:

-Motherboard
-Memory
-HDD & SSD (Most likely will be Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB and Samsung 840 EVO 120GB)
-PSU (80+ Gold @750Watts, I will be adding another GPU in the future)
-CPU Cooler

I also have to mention that the case has 3 fans so the motherboard will need 3 fan headers!

Please make sure that they are good components that will have durability, quality and performance...

Please make sure that all the components will work and fit according to the motherboard and case, etc... that you chose!


If there is space for case fans, feel free to! Just make sure that everything will fit.

IMPORTANT: I'm planning to play games such as Planetside 2, Battlefield 4, Call of Duty series, Crysis Series, ArcheAge, WildStar, FarCry Series, Ghost Recon Phantoms and a few other games.


No, I do not need SLi... I will be adding a second GPU in the future but it will not be a second GTX 780 Ti !


Thanks in advance! :lol:

You can use this build, but it is $20 more than your budget :)

Thanks for the build ! Really helps me figure out what to take or not...


Don't you think that these memory cards would be more suitable? http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-memory-cml8gx3m2a1600c9w


About the GPU I will find something else with white and black on it.

Ya, i chose the wrong color for the memory. You can give this graphics card a try.

I wish that was a 780 Ti . . . The only reason for me to take a normal 780 is if I would be using a second one but sadly, I'm not... :/

The reference version of the GTX780 would also fit your build, but there is a green glow on the logo

reference means that the card will not have 2 or 3 fans and without a factory overclock. Its the silver card with only one fan.

i want to put i picture, but i dont know how to xD

Oh, that's okay...

I know what you're talking about now... Yeah, I'd rather have 2 fans at most for precautions xD.

ya, getting a non-reference model is better.
