Advice on final build

[clanbear]

I opened a thread a bit a go and got some good information. Since then I have built a complete system and would like to know what people think. My main goal with this build is to have it last 3-5 years and be able to run a new Kepler card when they come out.

Approximate Purchase Date: Tomorrow

Budget Range: Whatever is necessary

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, movies, internet

Parts Not Required: Keyboard, mouse, OS

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com // amazon.com

Country: US

Parts Preferences: intel // nvidia

Overclocking: Maybe

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe

Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080



Case: Corsair Carbide Series 500R

MOBO: ASUS P8Z68-V Pro
I would really love some more ideas here. Again main purpose is being able to upgrade to a new Kepler card and maybe Ivybridge.

CPU: i5-2500K

GPU: EVGA 012-P3-2068-KR GeForce GTX 560 Ti (448 cores)

PSU: Corsair Professional Series HX750
Would this be powerful enough for two Kepler cards? Or is that just an impossible to answer question?

RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB

SSD: Samsung 830 Series 128GB
Seems like good read/write speed + reliability

HDD: Samsung Spinpoint 1TB

Disc Drive: Samsung blahblah
I would like to be able to play my Blu-ray discs

Heatsink: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

Wireless adapter: Rosewill Wireless Adapter

Monitor: ASUS VH226H Black 21.5" 2ms
I will be getting two of these. One for gaming and one for keeping a web browser open.

~$1900

No idea how much those new keplar will require, but seeing how Nvidia cards almost always require more juice than the AMD cards I would say you would want to go with a 850w min. A decent modular Corsair TX 850w can be had for around $130 w/free shipping @ amazon.

Also if you plan on going with one of those new cards, then save yourself some money and pick up the Gigabyte 560 ti @ newegg for around $205.

Alright thanks for the input. I'll upgrade to an 850W PSU.

Not sure about the graphics card yet but thanks for the advice.


Going to buy all these parts today... unless somebody has anything to add or there is major conflict in parts.
