Yes it is. It should have no problem maxing all of those games at 1080p 60fps (far more than 60fps in cs go and LoL).

damnson · Apr 9, 2015

Can i get 120 fps in lol and cs go so i can run it at a 120hz monitor?

Dunlop0078 · Apr 9, 2015

damnson :

Yah it will probably go higher than 120fps in both of them.

damnson · Apr 9, 2015

nice! is it anything you would change?

I might buy a small SSD. I am personally fond of the Patriot Blaze. It will have enough room for OS and the games where you really need speed.

damnson :

Maybe the hard drive, the WD Greens are pretty slow they are meant for low power servers, a WD caviar blue 7200rpm or seagate barracuda 7200rpm would be a bit better or even an SSD if you have the money for one. And is that ram split up? You want 2x4gb so you can take advantage of duel channel mode. Other than that i wouldn't change a thing.

but ssd is so expensive!

damnson · Apr 9, 2015

and i dont really see why it is so good anyways!

Dunlop0078 · Apr 9, 2015

damnson :

I could never go back to a hard drive after using an SSD i have been spoiled by it, but you dont really need it is only going to help with boot times, load times in games, and how fast applications open other than that it wont do much. I just like having my computer boot in under 10 seconds and being the first one in a match in multiplayer games, its unnecessary sure but it is nice to have.

Do you need a hard drive when you ahve an ssd?

JasonL265 · Apr 9, 2015

You dont have to get a large SSD, just get a 128GB SSD (about $50) for your boot drive (install your OS and stuff on this) and then get a 1TB+ Hard Disk drive for your games and media. An SSD will make your system alot more responsive. I built a budget PC recently and before it use to take like 2 or 3 min for the system to boot up. Added a SSD for the boot drive and the boot time change to 10 to 20 seconds and everything was alot more responsive as well. You really have to use an SSD to notice the difference.

Well i love you guys for helping me! But the rest of the build is good?

Dunlop0078 · Apr 9, 2015

damnson :

No.

JasonL265 · Apr 9, 2015

For me I recommend getting a Hard Drive mainly for media like videos and stuff and for games (mainly steam). I have like five 2 TB hard drives, four of which are for videos. One is for all my steam games, Two of them are for my Anime, one is for my TV series and the last one is for "other" stuff.

damnson · Apr 9, 2015

What should i buy betwenn an ssd and hd then?

damnson · Apr 9, 2015

Well thanks guys for everything! according to you i did pretty good on my first pc build i think! And i will not have an ssd and i will change the Hard drive with a seagate barracuda 1tb 7200! Cheers!

You did do a good job you got an H97 board for a locked cpu which is the cheapest and best way to go and you picked a good power supply which is where most people like to skimp out i cant tell you how many people i have seen with a nice system like that and some 20 dollar ebay power supply.
