Are these parts compatible and will they make a good quality gaming PC?

idekanymore · Feb 28, 2017

So I am planning on building a new computer, I know how to put most of the parts all together correctly and keep pretty safe; however, I do not know if these parts will be any good or will work well without bottlenecking? I have got a computer case already suitable for the sizes of the parts.

Intel Core i5-7500 3.80 GHz QuadCore 6 MB Cache CPU-Black

Cooler Master Hyper 412s CPU Cooler (RR-H412-13FK-R1, 4 Heatpipe, 1x 120mm Fan with Silent mode adapter, Intel / AMD)

430 Watt PSU

GIGABYTE Z270X ULTRA Gaming 1151 7th Gen DDR4 2 Way SLI RGB Fusion USB Type C ATX Motherboard - Black

MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 GAMING X 2G 2 GB GDDR5 128 Bit Memory HDMI/DP/DVI PCI Express 3 Graphics Card - Black

HyperX FURY 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) 1866 MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM Memory Module Kit - Red

If this is a gaming PC then no.

Either way you need ddr4 memory not DDR3

Drop down to a cheaper b250 motherboard and either get a 1050ti or a 470 graphics card with the savings. The z270 board is only for overclocking and your CPU can't be overclocked.

Don't get the 1050. You'll want something above. If your budget can handle it, also upgrade that cooler to a cheap $60 Corsair H60. I'd recommend the 470 instead of the 1050.

Thank you!

You can't use ram speeds above 2400 on this setup. If you like the look of that ram or something that's fine, but I'm sure you can do the job for less. (They will run fine at 2400 mhz) so that's only if you want to save a few bucks.

Cheers, I will stick with this for the pure fact that i like the way this one looks compared to the other ones that are available, but i do appreciate your help bro.

Supahos · Mar 1, 2017

No worries was just letting you know you could trim the budget a bit of needed. I like the way they look too.

Ah yes, the beautiful B250F. Great choice!

Supahos :

Not 100% sure, but would a 700 watt psu be powerful enough to run all of this? Been trying to figure it out just not too sure

Supahos · Mar 7, 2017

A good 450w supply would be enough. I'd get a really good rated 550/650 watt supply.

Seasonic RM/EVGA supernova g2/3 type stuff

Supahos :

Well I have a corsair 430w psu already

If it's one of those old CX models throw it in the trash before it burns your house down. If something else list it
