Need one final review

Asabra61 · Jul 10, 2014

Hi, can someone do a final review on this before i buy the parts, some notes:

-although i bought the 4790k.. i dont plan on doing any overclocking, just bought it for the hyper threading
-if i can improve this computer in anyway related to gaming please let me know
-is my psu enough to support the gpu?
-do i still need a cpu cooler even though im not OC'ing?
-any way to improve on this? (budget $1100)

Here's part 1 of the post, if anybody is interested:

Welcome to TomsHardware.com!

If you will only be gaming, get an i5-4690K instead. It will be plenty. However, if you also do some video editing or other CPU-intensive task, stick with the i7.

I would skip the CPU cooler. Just stick with the stock cooler.

Just so you know, that RAM is overclocked. 1600MHz is the highest RAM frequency you can get on a LGA1150 motherboard without overclocking.

You might want to get this PSU instead, simply because it's a great model and it's cheaper:
SeaSonic S12G-650

If you can afford it, I would get this graphics card instead:
PNY VCGGTX7704XPB-OC
The 4GB will come in handy, especially a few years from now.

Everything else looks great!
