Hello!,
I'm planning on buying a new system soon but I'm having several doubts with some of the components.
My plans in the near future include getting the Acer Predator XB271HU (currently own a Samsung 226CW @ 1680x1050).
I'll play mostly BF3 / 4 (FPS in general), TPS's (Hitman and the likes), and occasionally some racing games (NFS, GRiD, etc).
Usually i use Photoshop, Illustrator and Lightroom quite a bit for my photography work (no video editing).
I just want to play games as close to max as possible, and I never use any anti alias, so that setting can be ruled out.
Also, i don't update often and tend to use the same system for several years (at least 5); i've been using my current build since the beginnings of 2010 or late 2009.
I can't decide if i should get a 6500, 6700, or either the 6600k or the 6700k (i have NO idea how to OC a CPU, but I've read that doing OC on K's is easy enough without fiddling much).
The rest of the components:
- Asus Z170M-Plus (is it a good and reliable enough mobo?)
- 16GB (2x8) DDR4 2400Mhz Gskill Ripjaws-V
- Samsung 250Gb 850 EVO
- WD Blue 1Tb sata3
- Zotac GTX 980 Ti 6Gb GDDR5 AMP! OMEGA
- CoolerMaster CM690 III
- CoolerMaster Hyper T4 (here i'm also not sure if i should get the hyper 212 EVO instead)
- SeaSonic 750W M12II 80 Plus Bronze Modular (is it a good PSU ?)
Thank you very much!
