ok, fixed link

 

[TheBigTroll]

cant see your build

 

[zznelsonzz]

Link doesn't work?

 

[TheBigTroll]

no it doesnt

 

[azeem40]

Cuz it is a shopping cart. You have to make a public wishlist.

 

[zznelsonzz]

hmm lol how do you do that?

 

[azeem40]

Follow this.

 

[zznelsonzz]

OK, finally got it

 

[azeem40]

Not a good combo for CPU and MOBO. You can easily fit in an i5-2500k and a GTX 670 in that.

 

[zznelsonzz]

What would you recommend for a motherboard then?

 

[azeem40]

Here is what I'd do:
i5-3570k BX80637I53570K $240
ASRock Pro3 Gen3 Z77 MOBO $110
2x4GB Crucial Ballistix BLS2KIT4G3D1339DS1S00 $43
MSI N670GTX-PM2D2GD5 $410
Antec NEO ECO 620C 620W $70
Corsair Carbide Series 400R Graphite grey $100
CM Hyper 212 EVO $30

Total: $1003.
Add whatever peripherals you want.

Alright cool ill take a look at it thanks!

 

[TheBigTroll]

i5 3570k+ asrock extreme4 if you are in the us and gigabyte z77x-ud3h.

gtx 670 from asus or gigabyte

mushkin blackline is lower profile and slightly cheaper

dont get that hard drive. get the seagate barracuda 1tb with 64mb of cache. its alot faster

i recommend the seasonic m12II because it is almost completely silent and you guys have a sale for that on newegg

cheaper case is antec 302 or the antec one. both are about the same


although it is safe to do so, i never use the anti static wristband. just follow the newegg build guide and touch the side of your case to discharge static electrcity. it saves you 15 bucks

Alright cool ill take a look at it thanks!

Yeah, games will not be using 8 cores and threads for many many years.

 

[zznelsonzz]

I appreciate all the feedback! oh and azeem would i need the bracket for the CM Hyper 212 EVO?

 

[TheBigTroll]

I appreciate all the feedback! oh and azeem would i need the bracket for the CM Hyper 212 EVO?

ill reply for you. it doesnt. its included

 

[azeem40]

The EVO comes with a bracket and a retention plate.

 

[zznelsonzz]

Oh ok cool!

 

[zznelsonzz]

What do you recommend for thermal compound?

 

[TheBigTroll]

the evo from what i heard comes with arctic cooling mx-4. it is very good stuff and is better than the silver 5 and without curing times

 

[zznelsonzz]

ok thanks!

 

[zznelsonzz]

Oh, what would you recommend for an optical drive such as dvd drive

 

[farsuka]

Pretty much any optical drive will be fine for you, as long as it's a sata
