First pc build.

SanderTH · Jul 14, 2014

Note this build is aimed highly towards gaming and ofc everyday use such as internet browsing movies etc.

Case: Corsair carbide air 540

PSU: Corsair RM850

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 780Ti 3GB "SC" "ACX cooler" (It's either the 780ti or the amd r9 290x lighting, dont really know the difference between Cuda cores and stream prossesors)

CPU: Intel i7 4790k 4ghz (wanted the best out the box cpu and i dont really know to much about the amd cpu's so thought this one mugh be a good option. dont know to much bout overclocking and dont really want to fiddle around and break the cpu.. )

Motherboard: Msi Z97 Gamin 9 ac ( I know close to nothing about motherboards so i might need some help on this one P: )

CPU cooler: Corsair H100i

Storage: Seagate 2TB SSHD (dont know to much about SSHD but looks like it performs close to an ssd but at a much lower cost?)

Os: win 8.1

Thx for any help/tips in advance!

It's good, just don't get that psu. Get the Corsair HX850 850W psu, RM series isn't that good. If you want corsair link, go with an AXi 850W psu.

Also, that case is overkill unless your doing a full custom loop.

Could you tell me your Budget please?
So i could get you the best out of it?

Giving an exact budget is hard for me i tried that earlier and it did not work out to well because the price diference in my country and the currency.

joker50060 · Jul 14, 2014

SanderTH :

What is your currency i believe that i could make you a nice build with anycurrency as i see that the build that you posted up there is like 1500$+

SanderTH · Jul 14, 2014

TechyInAZ :

What kinda case would you recommend for maximum airflow and fits a h100i ?

My currency is Norwegian Kroners (NOK) and remember components here is more expensive

I'm not a fan of the SSHD's but that's just my personal choice. I prefer having two separate actual drives, but that's just me.

My opinion of the guy who mentioned about the case being overkill, don't really listen to him. If that's the case you want, go for it. I love Corsair cases and if I had the money I would throw my build in a 750D but that's just me. It's going to house all your components, and future components if you ever plan on upgrading. That's just a heads up.

Stick with Intel, it's going to benefit you in the long run and you're running a great closed-loop system for the 4790k.

I have the Z87 MSI GD-65 I believe and I like it, but I would go with Gigabyte or Asus if I had the choice again. I don't like the layout of the board now that I have it and I have ran my cables multiple times. Just my personal opinion.

Maybe go with a AX or HX psu.

SanderTH :

Well if you have a site that i can build you a build from that would be great.
other than that i'd go with an Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO , an I7 4790K
the Cooler is great just keep it
For the GPU i'd go with a 290X which is the titan killer and can max out all games in 1080p and 4K
for the storage just go with a normal Seagate 2TB HardDrive
PSU go XFX ProSeries 850W 80+ Gold
CASE go Corsair 750D

Well www.komplett.no is the site im using but it's in norwegian so unless you have a translator or something you're going to have a hard time. and my budget in Norwegian Kroner is about 18000.
and i feel like the 750d is to big for me i want something in the range of a midtower (The nzxt h440 looks amazing but no 5.25 inc bays is a downer

Ya am having a hard time reading anything there -_-
Well 18000 kroners are 2950$
so i could build you like a 2500 build or something on pcpartpicker.com and you look for it in your site.
will that work?

Yeah that would be great

. (you could try right clicking on the www.komplett.no page and it should be something like "translate to english". it is for me atleast.
