Hello,
The last computer I bought was an Alienware and... there was no way to open the case! I probably couldn't have cared less before but now for some odd reason it led to sleepless nights and sweaty mornings x.x
The only thing I can do with a PC like this is send it back for repairs, pay and hope they do their job... or get it back with the same exact problem and later on find out that the only thing they did was reinstall windows v.v
I decided to become self-reliable!
Now you may ask yourself: "Why the heck is this guy going through the trouble of telling me something I couldn't care less about?"
The answer is really simple: I couldn't bring myself to just post something like: YO! Here are the specs, advice please! lol
Honestly, I just feel uneasy demanding something without the chance to give anything back, so a big thanks in advance, really appriciate it.
To the specs:
btw what I plan to use this PC for is gaming, and by gaming I mean something with which I can play the lastest games at max settings.
Case: Corsair Obsidian Series 650D
Motherboard: Asus P9X79 Pro
CPU: Intel Core i7 3930K (I heard that an i5 is more than enough for gaming but I saw that the i7 has more cache, money thrown out the window?)
CPU Cooler: CORSAIR H100 (I'm not planning to overclock anything so maybe this is unnecessary, but when it comes to cooling I always instinctively think it's better to have more than less)
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 680
SSD: SAMSUNG 830 Series MZ-7PC128B/WW 2.5" 128GB (I know its not a lot of space but I never used more than this in the other computers I had)
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (4 x 4GB)
PSU: SILVERSTONE Strider Gold ST85F-G 850W (If in the future I would decide to run two GTX 680 instead of one, would this suffice? btw, the main reason I picked this one is that it's modular.)
Money-wise, I rather pay more for something good that is going to last than save a little on something that is gonna end up broken.
I almost forgot: I read that the CPUs that end up with the K in the end of their name (yes, this guy has no clue what hes talking about lol, sorry guys I hope I'm not too much of a pain) are the ones that can be overclocked. Is that the only difference? Should I go for another CPU since I don't want to overclock anything?
Really looking forward to hearing from you guys, again thanks!
