I'm looking to upgrade from my current build, and I'm wondering if the following specs are a good set up for gaming (I want to be able to get good framerates at 1080 while recording footage simultaneously, but as of currently I have little or no interest in going beyond that resolution)
I'd also be interested in the opinions on the case, as I have my doubts about it's quality, however it's a bundle deal, so if it's a bad case I may have to swap it out for another one. Still, if the case isn't good enough, alternatives would be much appreciated.
specs copypasted
Case : Galaxy Evolution Tower Case With Switchable Red or Blue Led
Power Supply : XFX TS650 Bronze Certified 80 Plus 650W Power Supply
Motherboard : Gigabyte Z97P-D3 (supports new 5th Gen Intel CPU)
CPU : Intel I7 4790K 4th Gen Quad Core CPU 4.0Ghz (4.4Ghz Turbo)
Hard Drive : 1tb Sata Hard Drive
Memory : 16gb DDR3 2400mhz Corsair Vengeance Pro Memory
Graphics Card : Latest Geforce GTX 970 4gb
As of currently, this build would cost me 1100 euro, with the caveat that a friend is buying my old system from me. In ireland at least, it seems like this price is actually cheaper than the components individual cost in local suppliers. However if people think I can get the componenets individually cheaper, then I'm perfectly capable of building it myself.
I'm afraid this is a repost slightly altered, as the last post received one highly irrelevant answer which was for some reason automatically chosen as the best solution, and killed the thread. I apologise if reposting is against best practice on this forum.
Thanks for any advice!
