Hello again guys
Because the problem with my previous build still remains unsolved ( and I desperately need a new computer for work ) I decided on buying necessary new components.
You can find the whole story behind it here if interested: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-3441954/mobo-boot-loop-caused-gpu-psu-wattage.html
I would like to ask the opinion of experienced users here, whether the components I have chosen will be fully compatible on the go. I already checked on Pc part picker, but to double check I thought I would ask around here
First of all this is my current build ( after 2 MOBO and a PSU change )
CPU: Intel - Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
MOBO: Gigabyte - GA-Z97X-Gaming 3 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Storage: Seagate - Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ( 2 pieces )
Corsair - Force LS 60GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ( 1 piece )
Memory: Kingston - HyperX Fury Red 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory ( 2 pieces )
GPU: Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 970 4GB G1 Gaming Video Card
Case: Corsair - SPEC-03 Red ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU: Zalman ZM700-LEII 700W
Windows: Windows 8.1
Peripherals: Asus Cerberus keyboard and mouse
Speakers: Logitech - Z506 155W 5.1ch Speakers
Optical drive: LG - GH24NS95 DVD/CD Writer
I would like to keep some of the components from my current build because of limited budget at the moment.
This is the build I'd like to go for ( I put the components I'd like to swap out in bold, the rest remains the same )
CPU: Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor ( Kaby Lake )
CPU Cooler: Noctua - NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler
MOBO: Gigabyte - GA-Z270X-Gaming K5 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Storage: Seagate - Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ( 2 pieces )
Corsair - Force LS 60GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ( 1 piece )
Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 Memory
GPU: Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 970 4GB G1 Gaming Video Card
Case: Cooler Master - 690 III ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU: Zalman ZM700-LEII 700W
Windows: Windows 8.1
Peripherals: Asus Cerberus keyboard and mouse
Speakers: Logitech - Z506 155W 5.1ch Speakers
Optical drive: LG - GH24NSD1 DVD/CD Writer
Later on I will upgrade some of the parts, like GPU, SSD etc.
For future reference which 1080GTX or GTX TI GPU would you recommend?
If case fans are needed, would the Corsair - Air Series AF120 do the trick?
Would I need a bigger PSU in the future ( or the one I have is good enough? ), if so what type and wattage?
For extra info, I mostly use my computer for extreme gaming and making vector illustrations.
So what do you guys think? Will the above selected components be a good enough and problem-free build?
Thank you very much for your time and answer in advance!
