After much consideration and feedback I've come up with a new build.
Also, I've decided to be the builder and am looking forward to my first build challenge.
What are all your opinions on this build?
I'll be using it mainly for gaming (GW2.)
CPU
Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core
CPU Cooler
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing
Motherboard
Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H ATX LGA1155
Memory
G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600
Storage
Samsung 830 Series 128GB 2.5" SSD
Video Card
???
Case
Corsair 650D ATX Mid Tower
Power Supply
Corsair Professional Gold 750W 80 PLUS Gold Certified ATX12V / EPS12V
Optical Drive
LG GH24NS90 DVD/CD Writer
Monitor
Catleap Q270 SEi
Operating System
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Full (64-bit)
Video Card: The reason I have ??? for the Video Card is I'm debating between an Asus GeForce GTX 670 2GB and a Gigabyte HD 7970 GHz Edition. Since I already purchased the Catleap I'm wondering if the 7970 will run better on that monitor? All I've ever gotten was NVIDIA cards, so I'm somewhat partial to them...
Looking for and open to opinions. Thank you!
