Hi,

I am building a rig with the following setup:

Intel I5 4590 processor
asrock b85m pro 4
GTX760 (either these 3 -> msi twin frozr / gigabyte Windforce / ASUS)
1 tera 7200 rpm hdd wd blue
2x4G Kingston HyperX
cooler master silencio 352
Thermaltake T.Power 650W 80+ Gold SM

I was wondering which graphic card and PSU(if not suitable) to choose with this configuration.

Thx for the advice in advance

You might need a motherboard BIOS update if you buy a B85 motherboard for it will support your CPU (i5 4590 is a Haswell Refresh CPU). I would suggest that you take a look at H97 motherboards since they are newer (although more expensive). They will support your CPU out of the box like the Asrock H97M or Asrock H97M Pro4 (examples only, you can choose others ^_^).

The 3 GTX760 will perform roughly the same. Most of the time, the difference in cooling and the noise they produce is the biggest factor between them.

The PSU (Thermaltake Tough Power Gold 650W) should be enough to power the whole system.

choose the cheapest one they are all more or less the same asus has a tiny bit of lower clock speed than the other 2......i will say go with the gigabyte one....The psu wattage wise would be more that enough for your system u need a 500 watt psu for your current system so no worries though i cannot say about the quality of thermaltake psu.....
