Hi everyone!
I'm studying software development en I want a PC that's good for me for the next 5-10 years. I game a little bit, but nothing serious. I like to play games like GTA V now and then but I'm not the type of guy who wants to play everything on Ultra settings etc. The most important thing is that I can work efficient, my PC must have enough power to calculate heavy stuff. So what I basically want is a PC that is future proof for software development. My budget is €1500,-. This is my current build:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Case: Cooler Master N300 (€46,95), I think this case looks nice. I'm not sure if it's a high temperature case, I want a low temperature case to keep all the components on a low temperature, so I need a good air flow.
PSU: Antec High Current Gamer HCG-620 (620 watt) (€91,10), is this enough for a system like this?
Motherboard: MSI Z270 GAMING M3 (€157,95), it's not a cheap motherboard but I've got great experiences with MSI (and ASUS too). This motherboard seems to be very good(?)
CPU: Intel Core i7 7700K - 4.2 GHz (€334,90), this seems to be a beast of a CPU. I think this CPU will really be future proof. I has enough power for my for sure.
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212X (€37,85), is this a good cooler for the i7 7700K? Currently I have a stock CPU cooler (from AMD) and it makes so much noise and it doesn't even cool that good. My CPU reaches temperatures of 60+ degrees easy (Current CPU is a AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition). The cooler for the i7 has to be quiet and has to cool the i7 really good.
GPU: MSI Radeon RX 570 ARMOR 4G OC (€235,95), this seems like a good GPU for me. As I said, I'm not a die hard gamer but this GPU seems to be future proof for me.
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200 16GB (€163,76), this seems good to me. Nothing else to say about it...I've got great experiences with Corsair
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO Series 500GB (€168,45), I did some research and this seems to be a great SSD. 500GB is enough for me.
HDD: Toshiba P300 3TB (€81,86), I'll be using this HDD to save some data (like movies etc.)
Drive: ASUS DRW-24D5MT (€16,99), seems like a good drive.
Assembly with 3 year warranty will cost €120,-
Total cost: €1.455,76
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What do you guys think about this system? Any tips?
Thanks a lot!

Robin
