Make sure to get a 660Ti that comes with Borderlands 2

 

[lazyaznricicle]

Yes. I would get an aftermarket cooler for your CPU(212 EVO, I'm looking at you). Otherwise, your build is good.

 

[bigcyco1]

Your build looks solid to me if your planing on overclocking your cpu add this and your good to go
CPU Cooler:COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO RR-212E-20PK-R2 Continuous Direct Contact 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler Compatible with latest Intel 2011/1366/1155 and AMD FM1/AM3+

Wait!Pump the breaks!Your going to need to change that ram it will conflict with 16gb of ram unless you get two 2x8gb otherwise you need low profile

 

[bigcyco1]

Also, don't buy a wireless mouse if you play games. It's slower!

 

[lazyaznricicle]

Oh yes, i was wondering about the ram too.

thanks for the suggestion but do you think the 4x4 or 2x8 is better

 

[willyroc]

2x8

I usually just get whatever cheaper at the time :lol: if you ever wanted to add more ram 2x8 is better also better when using aftermarket cpu coolers.

Ahh thanks big, i opted for your ram suggestion. Totally forgot about it interfering with my after cooler, those darn ram profiles
