Hi guys I want to build a gaming PC under 1200$ (Including Keyboard Mouse and Monitor). Please suggest me best brand for the following
Processor: Intel i5 3570K (For overclock)
Mother Board: P or Z series Mother Board (Under 200$)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB DDR3 1600MHz
HDD: 80GB SSD + 1TB (Confused in Selecting Brand and model)
GPU: Want 1080 resolution - 3DmarkDX11 with Nice performance (360$)
PSU: Need best 80plus for These Config (or) Under 90$
Cabinet: Any brand for 90$ (My Suggestion is Cooler Master CM690, Corsair Carbide Series 500R Mid-Tower Case, Corsair Carbide Series 400R)
Monitor: 1920x1080 + LED + HDMI ( My suggestion Samsung or DELL)
Keyboard Mouse: Logitech G100 Gaming Desktop.
I'm not sure if this is US, Canadian, or Australian dollars and do you need Windows? I would hold off on the SSD for now and pick that up later on. Focus on your gpu for now (FPS). Also any SSD smaller than 120 - 128GB is a total waste imo. In fact 240GB on up is the way to go. 120GB fills up quicker than you would think. That and the prices on SSD's keep on dropping so the longer you wait the better.
