MY FIRST BUILD- Opinions? Advice?

Goodbye Ruby Tuesday · Oct 31, 2016

Hey guys,

So I am doing my first build So I'm kinda a newbie. I was piecing parts together on Newegg.com and came across a PC that was parted together ( and it's basically all the parts I want on my first PC)

The PC: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.3119137

On the bottom of the page it says " first make sure all the parts are compatible!" Well, why the hell did you piece it together if it MAY not be compatible!

my question is : Are all the parts going to fit and are they compatible (mainly the case and the CPU cooler/ GPU)

I've been thinking of switching out the Asus 1060 for the EVGA 1070 8GB-256 bit...

Thanks so much...

yes its all compatible, i hope its including assembly service.
otherwise selected them in pc part picker and you will save alot of money.

also: yes it are good quality parts just a bit expensive.

Yes enter this on pcpartpicker.com and save money. Do not get the new EVGA 1070 or 1080. They did not put coolers on the RAM and VREG and the boards can actually burn up. Sad and unusual for EVGA, normally the best of graphics cards.

EVGA really blew it. Look elsewhere.

Yeah that was an epic fail, I'm sure there will be a recall at some point.

That actually is a pretty good deal for that build, I would probably change out the CPU cooler and the SSD but that's just me.

I am going to buy the FTW 1070 direct ffrom EVGA, they are putting the thermal pads and doing a BIOS upgrade for all of the defective cards beginning 11/1. I will be getting the FTW , no doubt

Goodbye Ruby Tuesday :

If you're dead set on getting the EVGA that's fine. I have the Gigabyte G1 and that's a great card, the MSI TwinFROZR VI is also really good.
