I'm finally upgrading from an old work-laptop, and I need something that can play the latest games at medium settings. I also will use it for video editing, some 3D work, and 2D design.
I already have all the parts planned out, but because this is my first build, I'm wondering if I missed something, parts wont be compatible, or if there will be a huge bottleneck.
So, here it is!
PSU: --------------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=60345 *switched brand*
CPU: --------------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=52067&promoid=1316 *upgraded to black edition*
MOTHERBOARD: -------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=62402
RAM: --------------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=59431 *switched brand/upgraded to 8GB*
CASE: ------------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=38039 *switched to way more awesome case*
HARD DRIVE: ----------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=63468 *switched brand*
GRAPHICS: ------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=56240&promoid=1316
SCREEN: ---------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=63278&promoid=1316 *added*
DVD: -------------------------- http://ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=60731&promoid=1316 *added*
*Items with stars have been switched due to suggestions*
Some other info:
-I'm not looking to overclock
-I will usually only use one screen, but sometimes two
-I wand my computer to look good
-I don't care about efficiency or noise very much
-I need great sound quality
So, am I set? Or should I swap some stuff?
The total cost is $850 (Not including shipping/tax)
