So this is my first build I have been collecting information for a while now and this is what I have come up with
case: NZXT phantom 002 OR - $125
HDD: seagate barracuda 1tb 7200 RPM - $85
GPU: Asus HD7870 - $350
CPU: Intel I5-2500K - $205
PSU: rosewill hive series 750w, 80 plus bronze - $75
ram: Corsair vengeance 8 gb(4x2) - $45
SSD: Crucial M4 64 GB
mobo: ASrock z77 extreme 4 - $140
optical: asus - $15
comes out to $1157 on newegg. I am trying to order tonight or tomrrow because there are some specials and sales that end tomorrow that I am taking advantage of. The 2 parts that I am somewhat unsure of are the motherboard and the power supply, I originally had a seasonic power supply that was twice the price of the rosewill one then found this one and it had good reviews so I went with it.
If you have any advice or recommendations please let me know. Also if anyone can tell me just so I am totally sure, if all of these parts are compatible, I am pretty sure, But better safe then sorry.
and yes I realize the case is expensive but I really love the look of the case and the features it offers.
help is greatly appreciated
