I would like to for you guys to take a look at what I have so far.
http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=17577391
How I plan on using this computer- 1920 by 1080 resolution hardcore gaming with 60+ FPS while recording gameplay with fraps, watching youtube, web surfing, video editing.
Some of the games I plan on playing- Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3, Command and conquer generals 2 and many other games that require fast computers to play them.
I do not need a keyboard, mouse, monitor, Operating System, speakers or anything other than the bare computer parts. (I have these already)
My opinions (PLEASE READ what I have to say it took me like 30 minutes to type all of this)
-------------
Case- THOR V2 has 3 230mm fans and 1 140mm fan installed already, it has 2 fan controllers and the case is pretty cheap (The only thing I don't like about it is that it is huge but I will probably deal with it)
CPU- I5 3750K $110 cheaper than the 3770k and the only difference is hyperthreading (I love Intel and I plan on overclocking to 4Ghz or higher)
CPU cooler- HYPER 212 EVO is a cheap cooler has lots of positive reviews and I'm pretty sure I will be stable at 4Ghz overclock (My original plan was to go with an H100 but they cost like $100 and I would want to buy extra fans which would really make it cost like $120 or more)
Motherboard- MSI Z77A-G45 is just what I was looking for, a quality motherboard that supports 2 graphic cards in SLI with gen 3.0pci (I really like this motherboard and probably won't use any other one)
Video card- GIGABYTE GV-N670OC-2GD This is a 670 video card that is cheap and has 3 fans! I plan on overclocking this card to perform like a 680 or better. (I plan on buying another one in like a year or two will they still be making this card?)
SSD- Corsair Force Series GT CSSD-F120GBGT-BK I know it only has 120GB but that is plenty for my OS and most of my games I plan on playing (I also have external hard drives)
Ram- CORSAIR XMS3 8GB Not really much to say here, it's just ram
(Don't really care about my ram as long as it 8gbs and has a latency of 9 so anything cheaper will do)
Blueray drive- LG makes some pretty good products and it reads and writes I believe.
Power supply- CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 V2 It says it has long enough cables for full tower cases but what if I wanted to do all that fancy neat wiring behind the motherboard? (I want a good quality power supply that has at least 80+ bronze and long enough cables I am up for any recommendations.)
---------
I do not plan on getting corsair commander link it just so happened that I picked a lot of corsair parts so feel free to recommend me to something else.
The current price is about $1,250 right now without all these extra rebates.
Any help at all is apreciated!
