Need some opinions on my first build

maxymax80 · Nov 20, 2016

So I'm going to be building my first pc soon, I'll mostly be using it for gaming. Games like bf1, overwatch, csgo, h1z1, and gta on max setting over 60fps. I'd like to keep it under $800 and I'm hoping to get some nice deals during Black Friday/ Cyber Monday which is around the time I'll be buying the parts. It's a white and black theme and I want the pc to look great (to show off to my friends and stuff xD) but also be great for gaming. Any suggestions on parts and stuff would be great. Thanks

the cpu is missing because I'm putting in a i5 4460 from my pre built and a hard drive as well but hoping to upgrade to an i7 4790k in the future

Heres the build http://pcpartpicker.com/list/JQ4MTH

Your build looks good.

If you want a completely white build then for PSU i suggest Seasonic Snow Silent 750W.
specs: https://seasonic.com/product/snow-silent-750/
pcpp: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/LgJkcf/seasonic-power-supply-ss750xp2s

Seasonic PSU does cost considerably more than your picked EVGA but it also fits perfectly into your white themed build while having 80+ Platinum efficiency.
With Seasonic PSU, the total would be $805.94.

Aeacus :

Thanks I'll look into it but wouldn't 750 watts be way too much since 650 is already kinda overkill

750W is much, unless you'd upgrade your build and use 2 GPUs in a 2-way SLI (e.g GTX 1070).
Regardless of wattage, your system will run just fine.

If aesthetics is important to you then the Snow Silent would be perfect fit though.
