My First Custom Build

[DJNemesis03]

Hello everyone. I wanted you guys to take a look at my custom built gaming pc that I'll be ordering within the next week or so and wanted to get some feedback and opinions before ordering all the parts. Without any further a due, here's a link to the specs.

The case that I'm going with wasn't on pc partpicker, but here's a link to it as well.

Now, with the case, I kinda want to get a mid tower because I didn't really wanna spend as much as I'm going to spend on the case I've selected, but I'm not sure if all of the parts will fit. Any thoughts regarding that as well are greatly appreciated. Anyway, let me know what you guys think.

Your in the wrong forum for this kind of feedback, but anyway.

The rig is fairly good, just a few things small things.

- The RAM, would bump it up to 1600Mhz.
- EVGA use a reference design cooler on most of their cards, including that one. It will run loud and hot. Newegg are currently having an amazing deal on an ASUS card with a DirectCUII cooler on it, which is far better.

May want to consider having a look at the 660Ti's competition the HD7950 as well. I would say its a stronger card, and comes with a bunch of free games.

Are you leaving SLI as a possible upgrade later on?
- If yes, upgrade the motherboard to an ASUS P8Z77-V LK. When using two cards it has 8x/8x bandwidth across the PCI-E slots, while the LX will be reduced to 4x/4x which will inhibit performance by a fair bit.
- If no, then you only need a 550-650W PSU.
