I've spent a lot of time trying to do all my homework on this build and I think I've got everything right. My main concerns are:
1)Will this be a good gaming pc
2) which gpu should i use

120mm Blue LED Case Fans (x6)

Hello gamerkila57;

Only 1 extra case fan please. And use the stock AMD CPU cooler.

Get the best video card you can afford. Use the $30 from the Hyper 212+ and what ever 5 of the six case fans would have cost.
Plus what you would have spent on the other video cards.

Everything else looks 'OK'.

 

[gamerkila57]

the highest i can pay for a gpu is $95

 

[ghostmann]

If you are gaming at that resolution you would need a much better GPU. HD5670 and GT430 won't cut. You need at least HD6870 or Nvida eq or higher.

 

[WR2]

I really don't think he has a 30" LCD display.

 

[gamerkila57]

what video card do u suggest from newegg.com

 

[WR2]

The $60 for the Zotac, $30 from the CPU cooler and 5x LED fans... is only equal to $95?

 

[WR2]

What video resolution is your monitor?

 

[BLUE0534]

If i was you, id wait and save my money up. If you spend $430 on a pc, it wont be a great gamer. It will get you by, but i promise you wont be happy

 

[gamerkila57]

my monitor resoluton is 1280 x 1024

[gamerkila57]

what about this
ASUS ENGTS450 DC OC/DI/1GD5 GeForce GTS 450 (Fermi) 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121415

 

[WR2]

That's much more powerful than the HD 5670 but it's also $115 a/r w/ shipping added.
Plus taxes if any.

is it a good gaming gpu
