First Computer Build! Thoughts?

[Fluxify]

Any recommendations on my new build?

I decided to not go with a power-line due to bad wiring near my house.

(I am pretty sure we have bad wiring but I will check in with them and double check.)

Always run RAM in pairs. 2X4GB instead of one 8GB. $5 more gets you some nice G.Skill: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231544

Running RAM as a single stick has no downsides other than running in single channel mode as opposed to running in dual channel mode with 2 sticks. Dual channel is slightly quicker than single but not noticeably so.

The rest of the computer looks great though! Not necessarily a fan of Thermaltake power supplies but it will do what it is supposed to.

What is you budget limit.

What is you budget limit.

I don't really have a budget limit, just no higher than 850.

I want it as cheap as possible, and as powerful as possible.

So I would change you video card to the Sapphire Radeon R9 270X 2GB Tri-X Toxic Video Card you will get the same performance for a few dollars cheaper and a faster clock speed. The 3gb and 2gb cards show little to no difference when running at 1080P. Unless you are going to be running at greater than 1080P resolution or multi-monitor then go with your current card because at that point the 3gb and 2gb start to show a difference.

It looks good to me. I personally like the NZXT 210 case better since I like the look, but the Corsair case you chose has always gotten high marks.

I mean...it looks good as it is. There's not much else to change.

Try an fit an R9 280x I. It or an r9 290 if you can.

 

[camohanna]

If you can try go for the current-gen cards such a GTX 770 or R9 280x. otherwise a solid build.

 

[Fluxify]

Thanks for all your opinions.

I am still looking for some more.

May I recommend you take the SSD away and fit a GTX 770 instead or a r9 290.

I've decided not to go with this build.
