Hello,
I am planning to build a computer with the following specs:
*Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz
*GIGABYTE GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 LGA 1155
*GIGABYTE GV-N670OC-2GD GeForce GTX 670 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
*CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
*Samsung SSD 830 Series 128GB 2.5"
*Fractal Design Arc Midi Tower Sort
*Sony Blu-Ray Writer BD-5750H
*Corsair HX 750 watt Power supply
My main concerns are with CPU and MoBo. I have read that the combination is good, but that the Motherboard has a "boot-loop" problem. Considering replacing with this:
ASUS P8Z77-V PRO, Socket-1155
Is it a problem using parts from different manufacturares (MoBo/GPU)?
Is the CPU good enough for gaming? I want to have a system that can play most games on ultra and hopefully last for a while. I was concidering buying an X79 MoBo with a i7-3930K CPU, but that might be overkill as I will use my computer for mainly gaming?
Is liquid Cooling necessary, and what kind is recomended?
What do you think, is it a good setup?
