Hi everyone, I am about to start building my very first custom build and I was looking for some advice. I should start off by saying that I have already purchased the case and motherboard so I'm 'locked in' on those parts but advice on any other parts would be greatly appreciated.
My main concerns are the Graphics Card and PSU. I have a feeling that I may possibly be going overboard with the PSU but I really want to make sure I am future proof so that in the future I can easily swap or upgrade a single part instead of having to completely rebuild. But with that bieng said I certainly don't have a lot of money so would prefer not to go silly and spend £200 on a PSU I won't need. In regards to the Graphics Card the 660ti is definetly my price range but do I break the bank balance for a 670 or not bother?
Case: Antec Nine Hundred Two V3
Motherboard: Sabertooth 990FX
CPU: AMD FX 4170 4.2GHZ
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
PSU: Corsair 1050HX or Corsair 1200AX
GPU: GTX 660Ti or GTX 670
Memory: Corsair 1866mhz (2 x 4GB)
SSD: Corsair Force Series 3 120GB
Hard Drive: Seagate 3TB
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Movies
Parts Preferences: AMD CPU, Nvidia GPU
Overclocking: Yes
SLI : Considering it as a future option
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Thanks for reading and any other advice or critique would be appreciated!
