*UPDATE* *13 september*
Hi guys,
I'm new here, and spent the last days assembling parts for a new rig. Any advice, like incompatabilities and such would be greatly appreciated.
Some info in the links will be partly in dutch, but it should be okay, since most terms are the same as the english ones.
Sorry for that!
Approximate Purchase Date: as soon as possible (within this month preferably)
Budget Range: 1000euro Before Rebates; Before Shipping
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming, surfing the internet, watching movies, studies
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
Parts to Upgrade: Everything exept a mouse, i have a laptop now.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Please note that if you're using an OEM license of Windows, you will need a new one when buying a new motherboard.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: afuture.nl
Location: Antwerp, Belgium
Parts Preferences: Intel, Slight preference for nVidia, but ATI is fine too.
Overclocking: Maybe the GPU at later stage
SLI or Crossfire: maybe
Your Monitor Resolution:1920x1080
Additional Comments: Trying to assemble a future-proof gaming-pc, around 1000euro's,monitor included.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My laptop's GPU is failing, due to the voltage of the factory settings being too high. And i miss gaming
ok, so this is what i have:
Xigmatek midgard 2 case (67.30€)
Will this case be large enough for the components i want?
Asrock B75 Pro3-M MOBO (61.50€)
is micro-ATX an issue for graphic cards like the HD7950?
Intel Core i5-3570 processor (189.70€)
Corsair CMX8GX3M2A1600C9 2x4Gb RAM (35.10€)
Sapphire RADEON HD 7950 3072 MB (292.20€)
LG GH24NS90 dvd-player (15.70€)
Seagate Momentus XT 750GB SSD+HDD(117.60€)
Corsair CMPSU-600CXV2EU - 600 W Power supply (59.30€)
I think 600W is about enough?
LG IPS225V-BN 21.5inch monitor (128.7€)
For a total with shipping of: 993.98€
Okay, that's it i think.
Thanks for helping me out!
