Hi everyone,
I am building a PC for first time in my life and I want your opinion about the components I am going to order. Are they compatible? And have I made the best decisions? I am planning to use it for gaming (not extreme gaming) and no 3D Editing or something. Here's my build:
CASE: Rosewill THOR V2 ($90) / NZXT Phantom 410 Mid-Tower ($80)/ Cooler Master Haf 912 ATX Mid Tower ($40)
Which is the best case or can you suggest me something better?
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($98)
After searching, I think that's the best value for money in comparison with FX-6350 or FX-8320
MOTHERBOARD : Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 ($116) / Gigabyte 970A-UD3P ($75)/ Asus M5A97 R2.0 ($90) / Asrock 970 Pro3 R2.0/ ASRock 990FX Extreme3 ($100)
Which one to choose? Or do you suggest a tottaly different MoBo? I am not planning to overclock but I want a MoBo including this option if there will be a need to overclock in the future.
RAM : Corsair Vengeance 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($54)
For now, I want a 4GB RAM and i will upgrade to 8GB in the future. I'm open to other RAM suggestions.
GPU : Sapphire Radeon R9 270 ($160) / Sapphire Radeon R7 260X ($124) / SAPPHIRE R7 250X ($100) / Sapphire Radeon R7 240 ($83)
Which GPU of them or should I go with NVIDIA?
PSU: Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($20) / Corsair CX 430W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($30) / Corsair Builder 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($45) / Corsair CX 600W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($55)
HDD :Toshiba 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($55)
I do not know anything about Coolers. Any suggestions would be overwelcomed.
