Is this a good build?

[ndainballer]

I was wondering if this is good for a gaming build (first one)
I have a budget of 600$ and this just fits it
I want to make sure the parts are compatible, and all good for the price

The roswill challenger has proven to be better than the good old HAF 912 and HIS is a really good brand but this 7870: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121624&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= is only 10$ more but it has a MUCH better cooler so more OCing potential...

You'll get more responses if you don't make people visit 8 different web pages to see what your build is.

Get a phenom II x4 if still available. They are cheaper and stronger. Then get a 7850 which will allow a cheaper power supply.

WTF kiddo???? are you suggesting the OP to sacrifice performance for a lower TDP?? dafuq?

I'm sorry, kiddo? He wants a 6950. A 7850 is around a 6970 and about the same price plus less power equals a cheaper psu (Not necessarily lower quality). A phenom is as strong as an FX and cheaper.

 

[TheBigTroll]

you are better off with a i3 over a phenom or a fx.

 

[CaptainTom]

If it's cheaper or the same price yes. Otherwise an OC phenom trades blows with a SB 3 and kills it in threaded apps. IB may be a little stronger, but also more expensive.

 

[TheBigTroll]

yes the phenom does perform better under multiple threads but it would require 3x as much power as a i3

wo wo wo wait... an i3 3220 is NOT an i3 2120. Ivy bridge might only be a die shrink with small improvements but Ivy bridge's Hyper threading was improved too.

 

[TheBigTroll]

you get around 5% more CPU power. and 30% more graphics given hd2500 is the same as hd3000

BS, not in heavily threaded apps or any app that uses 4 cores (games), the HT feature was improved in Ivy.

if you compare a i7 2600k and a 3770k, they arent a hell of much of a difference. it would kinda scale accordingly to the i3s as well

 

[ndainballer]

Okay... Well I have literally no idea what to get now.. I want to get the parts pretty soon.. So could someone help me make a build and tell me EVERYTHING I need... Because like I said I want to do it in a few days.

 

[TheBigTroll]

you can stick with my build and it would be fine
