Hello,
I am considering a small build, spending around 800 $ and 900 $. It's not for gaming.
In particular
With those things in mind, it is perhaps possible to spend more on RAM and the processor.
(I am tempted by the i7 4790K.)
I live in a very quiet place (no cars in my street), and would prefer silent cooling and HD.
(Prices below are from amazon, newegg and pcpartpicker.)
I am really unsure when it comes to power supply, motherboard and case.
Naturally, I'd rather have a small case, and a basic motherboard.
I thought of
Which totals (+ 350 40 110 60 40 75 150 60) = 885 dollars...
Is this sound? Am I missing something important?
Perhaps it is possible to get better prices in some components, especially the last three or in RAM.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
