Hiya guys, my current pc is due an upgrade so ive been browsing my options! Im trying to keep the price as low as I can while still getting something that will last and be fast and this is what ive come up with:
CPU: Intel Core i5 3570K 3.4GHz Socket 1155 6MB Cache OEM
MOBO: Asus P8Z77-V PRO Z77
RAM: Corsair 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz XMS3 Memory Kit CL9 1.65V
GFX: Asus GTX 660 Ti DirectCU II
HDD: Seagate 1TB Barracuda Internal Hard Drive
SSD: ??? (will be installed month later due to finance)
PSU: Antec 620W High Current Gamer PSU
Cooler: Zalman CNPS11X Extreme
Case: Coolermaster HAF 912 Plus Case / Cooler Master Cm Storm Scout 2
Im torn between the cases theres a £20 difference between the two anyone who has experience with either case, feedback appreciated.
I added links to website im using as im from Europe and its effected some choices such as PSU as I read reviews on here about Rosewill PSU's being great for my price range, unfortunately I cannot get them in the UK.
Few things I would like some advice on:
Are there any components that cry out as needing changing? (Bad brands/bad choices)
Any advice on a decent cheap SSD would be greatly appreciated as I have absolutely no experience with SSD.
Anything I went overkill on that I could save some £££ by getting a reliable cheaper version?
Note I will most likely be doubling up the RAM next payday due to finances. I am a gamer, I like to run things in max but I have no need to go silly.
Thanks in advance.
Ben
