Can you all review my first-time PC build and let me know if you have any questions, comments, thoughts, or concerns? I mostly plan on playing BF3 and BF4 and hope to play with a decent frame rate but don't expect to have huge numbers - this is meant to be a budget build. And I don't plan on overclocking anything and don't necessarily have to play on "ultra" settings to enjoy. Here's what I'm thinking:
Case: Rosewill Challenger
PSU: Seasonic Bronze 520W
Motherboard: ASRock Z77
CPU: Intel i5 3470 (do I need an aftermarket cooler if not overclocking?)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB
SSD: Samsung 840 120GB (for OS and games)
HDD: WD Black 500GB
GPU: EVGA 650 Ti Boost or EVGA 660 Superclocked (any suggestions?)
I'm just looking to make the switch from PS3 and be a decent Battlefield player - I don't want to spend a lot of extra money to only get a small return.
Thanks in advance!!
