Hello, I searched through a lot of the configurations reviewed, applied some changes and have come up with this final build. I am not a gamer, but I do video / slideshow processing.
Thermaltake Armor A60 Gaming Mid-Tower Chassis With Cable Management Water Cooling SSD Support And Tool-Less Installation ...
CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready
GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard Intel Core i7-950
(Qty 2 for 8GB) CORSAIR XMS 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000 (PC3 16000)
EVGA 012-P3-1470-AR GeForce GTX 470 (Fermi)
Crucial RealSSD C300 CTFDDAC128MAG-1G1CCA 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC
(qty 2 in raid 1) Seagate Barracuda XT ST32000641AS 2TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5"
LITE-ON Blu-ray Burner with 3D Playback SATA AFT PRO-35U All-in-one USB 2.0 Card Reader
I debated between this Gigabyte MOBO and an ASUS. Reviews on ASUS memory problems steered me towards the Gigabyte, but I am concerned 20 percent of reviews were a 1 egg on Newegg.
This is my first build. Are there any concerns with the build? Any receommended changes?
Thank you,
Dan
