Hi all! I am building a desktop PC after my poor laptop's graphics card fried. Now I can game at 1080p!!! FINALLY! Take into consideration that I do live in Australia when posting your own suggestions on builds as prices are always fluctuating and changing here.
Here are the parts I have chosen. Don't worry about peripherals, I have got them sorted.
CPU: i5-4690K (Might try my hand at overclocking when games demand more performance) = $297 (cheapest I have seen in Aus)
GPU: ASUS STRIX GTX 960 (Heard great things about this card, really quiet, good performance etc.) = $297 (cheapest I have seen in Aus)
MBO: H97 Fatal1ty Performance (I have used this board in my previous builds and it has been great! Unfortunately, no SLI.) = $135
RAM: HyperX Fury (2x4GB) 1866MHz RED = $95
Case: Corsair Carbide SPEC-03 = $85
PSU: CX-500M = $95 (I do want my PC to look somewhat decent XD)
OS: Windows 7 64-bit = $112
= $1143 all up.
What does look to you guys? Decent build or no? Suggestions?
