Hey everyone,
I'm going to replace my old gaming rig with a new one next week. I will be using it primarily for gaming (obviously) and I hope it will handle games on high details for at least 2 years. After some research, I came up with the configuration listed below. My budget is not limited but I also don't want to purchase overpriced components that bring just a marginal performance. I haven't assembled a PC for a few years so I'm not sure if I missed on any trends that I should be aware of.
I would appreciate your thoughts on the configuration and/or experience with the components below. Thank you.
Motherboard: MSI Z87-GD65 GAMING
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K
Graphics: MSI N780 Lightning
CPU Fan: NOCTUA NH-D14
SSD: Kingston SSDNow KC300 120GB 7mm
HDD: Western Digital Black 4000GB 64MB cache
RAM: Kingston 16GB KIT DDR3 1866MHz CL10 HyperX
PSU: Corsair RM750
Case: FRACTAL Define XL R2 Titanium Grey
Display: 27" ASUS PA279Q
Cheers,
Martin
