Hello, everyone i am going to finally upgrade after so many years with this old as hell pc; Pentium 4, GeForce 6200 (yeah its really old).
I have a Ivy Bridge build on my mind right now, and i would love to get some advices from you guys, hopefully to identify any issue that, you know... may or may not end in a catastrophic fail xD, so, here is the build:
Motherboard:
MSI B75MA-E33 LGA1155/ Intel B75/ DDR3
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/B75MA-E33.html
CPU:
Intel i5-3550 Ivy Bridge
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116505
Video Card:
GIGABYTE Super Overclock Series GTX 560
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125390
PSU:
Cooler Master eXtreme Power 500W ATX12V
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171031
RAM:
Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR3 1600 (x2)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104173
HDD:
Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKX 500GB 7200 16MB SATA 3
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136769
Case:
Sentey BlackBox BX1-4284 V2.1
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811322020
Monitor (right now i still have a big heavy RCT monitor lol):
LG Monitor LED 21.5" E2251VR

And that's pretty much it, the thing that i am worried about is the video card (the newegg owners siad that their card died after 8 months or even less),i live on the north of Chile (i dont intent getting the parts listed here on newegg obviously), near the atacama desert, right now is winter, and summer here, tends to get really, really hot so it might not be the best card to have on this kind of climate.
I might decide to grab a Twin Frozr II.
The other thing that worries me is the Motherboard itself, i think that is new on the market right now, is not even on newegg (that or i am a complete moron and i haven't found it on newegg).
Also it's looks like the PCI-E 3.0 slot it's too close to the CPU, and i have no clue if the videocard is going to fit there.
So yeah those are my concerns so far, that build equals to US 1200$ on my currency, i have about US 85$ extra that i can spend on the build in case of having to replace any part.
Well hopefully this build is good enough, but if it's not please let me know, i would really appreciate any advice from you guys.
Thanks for your time, and also i apologize for every single grammar mistake that i've committed thus far.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that i have no plans of doing OC, the parts are quite good already, considering that i am upgrading from a Pentium 4 and a GeForce 6200 xD.
