My Ivy Bridge Build

[Nate369]

My Rig is about 5 years old and I have an itch to build a new one. So I am looking at building an Ivy Bridge Rig. This is what I am looking at so far, let me know what you think

CPU: i5-3570K

CPU Cooler: COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO

Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme6
*was looking into the Extreme9, but I talked to the Sales rep and I am not sure it is worth the 350 price tag he said it would have.

GPU: EVGA GTX670

RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 1866Mhz

SSD: 2x Crucial M4 128GB (picked up for 87.99 each at Staples)

HDD: 2X Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM (From my last build)

Power Supply: Not sure

Case: CoolerMaster HAF X

Any suggestions would be well received. The only thing in set is the i5-3570 and the SSDs. I dont really have a budget, but I would like to keep it under or around 2000

I would have just gotten one 128GB SSD as they are fast enough without RAID.

800W.http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/message.php?config=tomshardwareus.inc&cat=31&post=346530&numrep=2601409&ref=1&page=1&p=1&subcat=322&sondage=0&owntopic=0&new=0#formulaire

My Power Supply from my old build is a Odin GT 800W. Would that be fine for current builds? Or should I look into getting another?

Get another. No-name brands have pretty high failure rates.

 

[Nate369]

Well it hasnt failed in 5 years. And I think Odin is/was made by Gigabyte.

I guess it would be fine to keep it then.
