Hello, My name is Tiago and in 4hours i have been looking around and putting some stuff together, however i need to know if it will be safe :p i know the motherboard will accept the components but im not sure if im picking the right PSU and Graphic Card! The Pc is for gaming however not the kind of game where it uses much CPU. I do like too keep the PC Running for about 3 to 5 days a week and give it about 12 to 14H rest

This is my current computer:

Case: Unkown
Hobo: Foxconn G31mx
PSU: Unkown
Ram: DDR2 240-pin 1GB X2
Intel: No idea i think is a Pentium but i dont know wich
Graphic card: Really bad one forgot the name
Optical Drive: Unkown name (Standard DVD-RW)
HDD: 320GB

(this is not that important, all im keeping from that is the Optical Drive)

What I am planing to build, this is the important part, also tell me what I am forgeting Thank you! And give me opinios on a cheaper PC Built!

Case: NZXT H59 (Black)
Hobo: MSI H61M-P31 (1155)
PSU: OCZ OC2600 HXSP
RAM: DDR3 16BG (8BGX2)
Intel(CPU): i7 Quad Core 1155
Graphic Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 640
Optical Dive: N/a
HDD: Hitachi 1TB

This Will cost me arround 565.68Pounds

Thank you for reading :D Post your opinions

That case is old, so get something better such as the antec 300 or the cooler master elite 430.

Your motherboard should be an ATX and have a z77 chipset.

You don't need 16 gb ram, get 8gb instead.

You don't need an i7 for gaming. Get the i5 3570k.

Use all of the money I just saved you to get a better graphics card. Get at least a 7850, preferably a 7870.
