I have been planning my build out for a while. I need some tips.
Build Specs:
Gpu: Asus Strix GTX 970
Ram: ADATA USA XPG V1.0 OC Series 8GB DDR3 1866MHZ PC3 14900 4GBx2
Motherboard: MSI LG-1150 Gaming 7 Motherboard
Cpu Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Psu: EVGA 600B 80 Plus Bronze Certified
Case: Black/Red NZXT H440
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB
Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1 TB
Thermal Paste: Arctic Silver 5--3.5 Grams
Keyboard: CM Storm Ultimate Cherry MX Red
Mouse: Cm Storm Reaper
Controller: Xbox 360 Controller for PC
OS: Windows 8.1 Operating System On USB Got from a Friend
Total Price: Around $1500
I know that this will run any game at 1080p (which is what I play at). But I also want to know if this is the best setup for the price. I want to save money but still keep the red and black asthetic. I am not gonna switch out the case because I have fell in love with it. I am not gonna switch out the CPU or GPU because IMO the combination of both is just too strong. I will change brand for the 970 though. Thanks for the help!
