Just about ready to pull the trigger on this build

Finalized a build that will work for me. No OC or Xfire. Budget was 775 (USD). Aiming for high at 1080p. Thoughts?

Plan to buy everything from Newegg (unless a significant deal in savings pops up). Price includes tax (for MY area) and shipping.

Drop that PSU and get either an EVGA b2, or an XFX, or seasonic. The CX/CS builder series of PSUs are not good for gaming systems

replace the Psu with a antec truepower classic 550w, its the same price but better overall

you can also save 10$ by going with these pair of Ram

Raiin :

I'll consider the PSU. The reason I went for the Corsair RAM is because it's blue to match the motherboard lol.

Raiin · Jan 27, 2015

there really isn't much to consider when the antec is that much better at the same price.

Raiin :

Why is it so much better? It's not modular while the CX600M is semi.

The CX and CS series of PSUs from Corsair are not good quality. They sometimes, can not provide stable power to all your components. Better be safe than sorry!

Tarek Itani · Jan 27, 2015

So would you guys say this is a better option? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817116023

Bossyfins · Jan 27, 2015

Much better than the Corsair one, so I say YES
