Hi, I am trying to build a new PC for the first time and have decided on few components but am not sure about few others, so please help me choose the right ones.
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate Professional 64 bit
Processor: Intel Core i5 2500k
Monitor: Dell Ultrasharp U2312HM
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
HDD : Will be using my old one for now, but am planning on buying 6gbs/s sata III in few months.
Graphic Card : For now not planning to buy any, but in near future will go for an higher end one.
System Usage : It will double up as my Work computer running Photoshop,Illustrator,3DSMax, visual studio, Apache webserver, mysql server and similar apps, all latest versions, and as a gaming computer, though I am not considering a graphic card at the moment. Most of the time I will be multitasking.
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: No
USB 3.0 : Yes
Choosing between :
Mobo : MSI Z68A-G45(B3) and Asus P8Z68-M-PRO
RAM : G.Skill RipjawsX or G.skill Sniper or Corsair Vengeance (all 2x4GB or 4x4GB depending on the cost back here in India)
PSU : Seasonic 520W Power Supply (S12II-520) or Seasonic 620W Power Supply (S12II-620)
Cabinet : NZXT Gamma Black Steel Mid-Tower ATX Cabinet or Cooler Master 690 II Basic (RC-692B)
It would be much helpful if you let me know why you chose what you chose. My knowledge about computers is almost zero and the pc will be assembled by some assembler. I would like to save if the difference in performance is not significant.
Thanks a lot
