Hello. I am a new member and was wondering how well the following components can run:
CPU: AMD FX-8320
Cooler: Corsair H100i
Motherboard: Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0
Memory: 2 of the following: Crucial 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
SSD: Crucial V4 32GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
HDD: Western Digital RE3 1TB 7200rpm
GPU: PowerColor Radeon R9 280X 3GB TurboDuo Video Card
Case: Azza SIRIUS ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU: Thermaltake SMART 750W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
ODD: Asus DRW-24F1ST DVD/CD Writer
I am going to use Windows 10 when it comes out and I will be overclocking the CPU and GPU. I want to play all games at 1080p 60+fps ultra/max settings. Mainly, I want to play GTA ank Skyrim, but will play Call of Duty and Battlefield and Assassins Creed games too.Here is a link to my part list:http://
I posted this as a question earlier and wanted it to be a discussion. The first response was from HertzKnight, which he said this:
I think you can do much better than that. Here is a quick build Its over by $8, but honestly a lot better build.
I would get rid of the PSU. This PSU should have enough room for overclocking, but will not support SLI or Crossfire. Upgrade to an i5 4690K. If you are getting an SSD you might as well get a 128 or 256 size one. I didn't put one in yet. I would say wait a bit and buy it later. Also I would upgrade to a GTX 970. If you want the SSD, you can always downgrade the GPU to a R9 290 or R9 280X You don't need 16GB of RAM at this time for playing games. You should go with 8GB for now and upgrade later.
EDIT: This will play all the games max and if you want to save some money, maybe you should go with an air cooler instead of the h100i.
