Hi, guys,
Fairly new to this custom PC thing so please review and comment on any part of this build, whether the components make sense, whether the part I selected is not a good brand, etc. I'd like to play Diablo 3 and Skyrim on max settings, and possibly other new upcoming games as well.
NZXT H2 Classic Silent Mid-Tower Gaming Case
Default case fans (upgrade?)
Sound absorbing foam on side, top and bottom panels (worth it?)
Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4 GHz 6MB Intel Smart Cache (upgrade to 3770K?)
No overclocking
Asetek 510LC Liquid Cooling System 120MM Radiator & Fan, Single Fan
Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H Intel Z77 Chipset DDR3 ATX Mainboard
16GB (4GBx4) DDR3 / 1600MHz Dual Channel Memory, Corsair or Major Brand
GeForce GTX 580 1.5GB Video Card, EVGA superclocked (will this last 2 years?)
Standard case 500 Watts power supply
120 GB Corsair Force Series SATA-III 6.0 GB/s SSD, single drive (My files only consist of maybe 10 GBs of music so don't need that much space - this enough otherwise?)
No USB flash drive (don't get this - doesn't the case come with an USB drive?)
LG UH12LS28K 12X blu-ray player & DVDRW combo drive
HD on-board 7.1 audio
I intend on using my plasma TV (Samsung PN59D8000) as my display. Will the GPU I selected allow me to connect to my AV receiver via HDMI (both display and 5.1 audio?).
Thanks in advance for any help.
