I really like this build. It will play demanding games on Med/High and still option is open to overclock the CPU in the future...which you should if you buy a fx-6300.

TomSkini :

I didn't quite understand what he meant so I included a Ti in the build just in case.

Based on what you asked for. 650W is sweetspot for PSUs. I wouldn't use a 500W PSU like Joeteoh99 recommended for a Titan. Gonna cause issues.

This system is designed for easy overclock of CPU n Titan. Also, Noctua makes quiet fans.

Yous so what if I want to squeeze another gpu or maybe I cannot get it for some reason which gpu should be best. Should I sli gtx 780

Jaskirat Sanghera · Aug 10, 2014

How much power should I need

lightcloud · Aug 10, 2014

Jaskirat Sanghera :

At least 700W.

envy14tpe · Aug 10, 2014

If you are gaming on a 1080p monitor and have a Titan then you don't need SLI. I would only suggest SLI if you were using say a 760, and you wanted SLI for 3 monitor gaming or a 144Hz monitor. However, the Titan should max out your games already. No need for a second GPU. If you did want a 2 GPU system then you should get at least 750W but I'd suggest 850W. If you are using 2x760 then 750W is fine, but if you want 2x780 then 850W is safest.
