Hello everyone,
I am new to this community and have a couple of questions regarding a new computer I just built. It was my first time ordering parts separately and building a computer. Here are my specs:
CPU--Intel I7 6700K 4.0 ghz
Power Supply--850 W Thermaltake Smart M
Case--Cooler Master Storm Trooper Stryker
CPU Cooler- Corsair H100I-GTX
MotherBoard--Asus Z170-Premium
RAM--DDR4-3200 G.Skill Ripjaws V 1.35 V CL 16-18-18-38 4 X 16 GB so 64 GB total.
GPU--2X EVGA gforce 980-TI SC edition 6GB DDR5
Monitor-Dont have yet still need.
Samsung SSD 850 pro
I ordered all of these parts from NewEgg and Amazon. I am thinking about sending one of the video cards back, and 32 gb of the ram back because I think it was overkill. Also, I wish I would of got a Haswell to have more than 4 cores. I will use this computer for Gaming, a few VM's, and running a youtube channel so a little bit of video editing stuff.
I am asking the community for their opinion on what monitor to buy, and if I should send back 1 graphics card and 32 gig of ram. Also if I should maybe send back the motherboard and processor and get a has well and X99 chipset instead. Money isn't too much of an issue, I like to have the best but I don't want to be wasteful either. Also I only have 1 SSD so i should prob get another to boot windows 8.1 only from 1 right? What about these U2 options for SSD. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks
