Alright guys, I've decided to jump over from the now seemingly dark and seedy "prebuilt computer" world to the sunnier, happier "homebuilt computer" world.
I will be using this computer for gaming (BF3, Crysis 2, GTA, WoW, hoping to try out Witcher) and high school assignments.
The only problem is that I need more opinions on my build list, as this is only my first time
CASE - Don't really know much about this field. Right now I have the "Antec Nine Hundred," but if there is something better and/or sexier then please tell me
HDD - I've settled on a Crucial M4 2.5" 64GB SATA III MLC Internal SSD for my main boot and some of my most used programs (Are ALL SSDs 2.5"? I thought that was the size for laptop hard drives. How am I going to fit a 2.5" SSD into a desktop, where the smallest bay is 3.5"?)
GPU - EVGA Superclocked GTX 680
CPU - i5-3570K (i don't plan on overclocking any time soon so i want good base speeds)
RAM - 2x4GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600
MOBO - Asus P8Z77-V (I don't know much about motherboards, so PLEASE help me out here!!!!)
PSU - I don't have one picked out - I was hoping you guys would help me out
Please leave a comment about what you think! Thanks a lot for helping me out!
