Hi all,
I am building my first system and have finally chosen all my components. I'm going for a gaming build and would like comments about compatibility and maybe even parts that can be replaced with cheaper parts without any negative effects on the system. I am not thinking of overclocking at this point in time and it is purely a gaming system.
I've done research on the parts I have chosen. However, as I said, I'm a first time builder and may have made rookie errors!
Thank you in advance.
Parts are as follows:
CPU - Intel Core i7-5930K 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor
CPU Cooler - Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler
Motherboard - EVGA FTW EATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard
Memory - G.Skill Ripjaws 4 series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory
Storage - Samsung 850 EVO-Series 1TB 2.5" Solid State Drive
- Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card - EVGA GeForce GTX 980 4GB ACX 2.0
Case - Corsair 760T White ATX Full Tower Case
Power Supply - Corsair 850W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive - LG BH16NS40 Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer <Not too concerned>
Windows 8.1
Probably looking at a monitor with 2560 x 1440 resolution also.
Let me know if I have missed any details,
Thanks,
Matt.
