$1100 build. What do you think?

[rkowalk]

Hey so I have spent some time researching this build and i was wondering what everyone on here thinks of it.
It will not be used primarily for gaming, but i would like it to be able to run most recent games very well.
It will be run on a 24" monitor at best, most likely a 19"
Video editing and processing is important to me.
Alright here is the system:

looks pretty good, can the rosewill PSU be trusted with those components?

Check out this power supply;

That's a real nice build, don't take any chances with your PSU.

I went a website where they stress test PSU's and many other tests and this one came out in the top with many other more expensive psu's he personally recommends it

 

[Silverion77]

what website? Generally Rosewill tends to be a crappy maker of PSUs. I would feel bad if your PSU died and took your other components with it.

jonnyguru.com, i believe he is a pretty truted reviewer

If your not in a hurry you may wait a month for the Q9450

CORSAIR CMPSU-620HX ATX12V v2.2 and EPS12V 2.91 620W Power Supply

Do yourself a favor and replace that Rosewill PSU with the OCZ Silencer 750W from www.buy.com.
http://www.buy.com/prod/ocz-silencer-750w-quad-sli-ready-power-supply-black/q/loc/101/204839780.html
It will cost you only $0.86 more, shipping included.

If you are curious about the Silencer, read this:

The Corsair 620HX is also a top quality PSU and strong enough for your build.

Everything else looks very good.

Thank you for correcting me gravemind

It won't work. The mobo you chose doesn't have a slot for PCI-e 2.0 x16, just PCI-e x16. Your GPU is a PCI-e 2.0 x16.

If I am wrong someone please correct me.

PCI-E 2.0 is backwards compatible with older PCI-E standards.

For the power supply, check out the Corsair HX620 or PC Power and Cooling Silencer 610W, 750w is complete overkill.
