Pc build compatibility check

ryanmstc · Feb 27, 2015

Will my pc build work? I checked with pcpartpicker.com and it said no issues were found but I would like to double check as this is my first pc build.

if your close to micro center they have lowest cpu and 40.00 combo off there mb. on pc try not to use two lower end cards to crossfire or sli. your better off using one high end card and then adding another if needed.

Better water cooler. Low latency memory at 1.5v. Single 1TB SSD instead of two 512GB drives. Dual 24" monitors instead of a single 32". Add a second GTX 970 in SLI later if desired / needed (or replace with an R9 290 / 290x). There is no reason to build a new rig and immediately do CF with a pair of med / large sized GPUs. There is no upgrade path outside of replacing both cards...
