Build Check

[AdmiralScript]

Hi there, this is my build:

CPU: Intel Core i5-3450 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor ($149.99 @ Microcenter)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3V Micro ATX LGA1155 Motherboard ($64.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($33.99 @ Newegg)
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon HD 6750 1GB Video Card ($112.94 @ Compuvest)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (64-bit) ($90.65 @ Amazon)
Total: $452.56

Please give thoughts and opinions on whether these parts fit well enough. Please can someone also give me a sort of idea on what kind of PSU I should be looking at

Thanks a lot.

Pretty weak video card for a gaming rig. Other than that, its a good foundation. You might want to consider a cheaper CPU in order to fit a stronger video card in the budget if gaming is what you're after. Although for 452 bucks, its hard to argue with.

If you could go up $10 to $43.99 you could get these G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL from (HERE - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231311) It might only be at the 1333 speed but you will notice more difference with the amount than you will with the small speed boost with the 1600.

But if you want to shave a little off the price you could get these G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL for only 29.99 from (HERE - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231427)
