looks pretty BA to me. i approve i assume it's mostly for gaming?

 

[Spyder171]

Mostly.... lol yea I ordered a Chromebook for taking to class (college) and this to make my friends *** haha.

not bad.

except u could of gottena cheaper case. cheaper mobo.

a 2tb seagate for that price.

for 30$ more a sandisk 256gb ssd ;P

cheaper ips panel just as good.

thats about it, but not bad

I think that parts list is golden

 

[Spyder171]

I went with reliability over price really. WD kicks seagate ass, the sandisk doesn't touch the 840Pro, the IPS I went with because I've always loved Asus and had good experiences, case is because I want my PC to look stellar vs a cheap black case that has my goodies hidden away and finally the Mobo I will give you in the sense that I almost went with a $145 MSI but the Sabertooth is proven, I didn't wanna have 2nd guesses in the end. But thanks for your reply and compliment

 

[Spyder171]

Thanks Rockdpm!!!

 

[iceclock]

nope in real world benchmarks the black really isnt faster than the seagate, im just saying if u wanted more storage the sandisk would of been a fine choice.

u went with good choices.

cheers

Thanks man! Oh and I'm on another forum and when I showed them this they absolutely tore me a new *** on my PSU. They said Rosewill is garbage and to 'have fun with my PSU'. Do you believe I will be having issues? It just makes me worried and after all the time that will be spent let alone money I don't want a fried computer.

the hive mind is fine, based off the ocz 550-650-750 ocz-z models.

Thank you I hate when people bash anything out of their realm of comfort

 

[iceclock]

somethimes they should advise something better instead of bashing, bashing doesnt accomplish anything.

 

[Spyder171]

Exactly. And truth be told I had an $1,886 budget and I spent $1,876. I didn't exactly have the room to spend the extra $50 on a Corsair or something
