First Time Build Need Help

Hartyy · Aug 19, 2014

I'm making my first gaming pc and I have the list complete but I wanna know if everything is compatible together and if the build is solid. I'd also appreciate any suggestions of different parts. Thanks in advance!

Nice build!

I would change the PSU to this:

Or if you really want fully modular (the capstone is semi) then get this

That's pretty good.

I'd look at i5 4690k (newer) and a lower price mobo eg Asus Z97-A or ASRock Z97 Extreme 4
