Need someone to look over my gaming rig before purchase!

nxcxmxsxsx · Nov 18, 2014

Should i change anything or am I good to go? Do I need that much watt? I don't think the motherboard has wifi either? Will this be a nice quite gaming rig?

For your setup you only need 500watt PSU and 700 if you want SLI 2 x 970. I would look at a higher quality PSU than the CX, both XFX and EVGA have good units reasonably priced.

So the Corsair models are not good? I'm just the type of person to like to have as much as possible from the same brand hehe. Since I have corsair fans, ram memory etc

Corsair is good if you go TX,HX and AX anything with C or R is not as good as it could be.

For someone with a limited knowledge in this. What makes them better/worse?

rolli59 · Nov 18, 2014

Higher quality parts but here is a tier list https://community.newegg.com/eggxpert/computer_hardware/f/135081/t/45344.aspx the XFX I linked is a tier 1 the Corsair CX is tier 3

I changed to this one instead since it's platinum! https://www.komplett.se/corsair-ax-760-psu/769192

This is what the computer looks like in full now

Looking good! That is a top of the line PSU.

rolli59 :

Great to hear. Now the last thing before I press buy button is wifi and bluetooth. How do I get that? I guess I have to get an OS as well hehe

rolli59 · Nov 19, 2014

Just get any PCIe or PCI wifi adapter that fits your router I use n adapters 300Mb/s, on the bluetooth you will need something similar.

rolli59 :

Do they come with the new wifi standard?

rolli59 · Nov 19, 2014

Fastest today is AC but n std is plenty fast. Faster than my current Internet connection.
Here examples of cards that will do the job;
PCIe X1 https://www.komplett.se/tp-link-tl-wdn4800-11n-wireless-adapter/771418#!tab:extra
PCI https://www.komplett.se/tp-link-tl-wn851n-11n-wireless-adapter/617281

And here top of the line AC adapter https://www.komplett.se/asus-pce-ac68-ac1900-wireless-adapter/800007

I just came across this one with both the new wifi and bluetooth 4.0. It was that dongle thing that I guess just hangs but I think it should be ok http://www.intel.se/content/www/se/sv/wireless-products/dual-band-wireless-ac-7260-bluetooth-desktop.html

rolli59 · Nov 19, 2014

Yep that will do the job, dongle is basically extended antenna for better reception.

nxcxmxsxsx · Nov 19, 2014

rolli59 :

Well then I think it's a wrap! I saw that the dongle is not in stock anywhere though gaaah! I'll just look for another card probably. I know it has to be pci or pci-e not at least. Thanks for all the help dude!
