There wasn't much info on the 800W PSU. It was only a bit more than a 650W EVGA PSU. I'm not too familiar with PSU's. I did see the new Ryzen CPUs but they weren't on sale and I didn't know if the performance is worth the cost. As for storage, I'll only be using the 500GB SSD for a couple of...

Hey, I'm looking to build a PC mainly for streaming from consoles and would like to know if what I have come up with is... (not good enough, just right, or overkill). I will do some gaming from the PC (Escape From Tarkov, Insurgency Sandstorm, Squad,etc) and am looking for Ultra settings while...

I'm just about to build my very first build and I'd like to get better aftermarket fans for my case with brighter LED lights. I don't know exactly how fans work in cases as I'm still in the early steps of my computer knowledge. I have a FX-8320 w/ M5A99FX, 8GB RAM, HD 7770 GPU, 2TB HDD and 650W...

I had ordered an ASUS M5A97 but it is now on backorder so I cancelled which is ok due to my budget has increased a bit. The M5A97 was about $99 and I can prob bump up to around $150ish now I'll be running a FX-8320, 8GB RAM, HD 7770 GPU, 2TB HDD, and 650W PSU I know the Sabertooth 990FX is...

Thanks for the help everyone. I'm going with Corsair Vengeance http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=40739&sku=C13-5720 Unless someone has a bad review on it

It's a Corsair. Little pricey for a 500W I think, $80 but blue LED lights get me and it actually has that haha. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=581015&sku=C13-2608

Literally what the title says, what RAM should I use? I know there will be a lot, so really, how do I figure out what RAM I can use? I'm about to buy my first build and can't find the info on the motherboard from tigerdirect where I'm buying it from. I want at least 8GB, no real preference on...

Wicked! Well I appreciate it. I have finally found all the parts to my first build so can't wait til I get em here. Quick question, since we are running almost the same set up, will a 500W PSU be fine since I don't plan on overclocking anytime soon?

I didnt like the review on that one. I found this Corsair 500W one for $80 It got good reviews, little more, less wattage but I know Corsair is a good brand http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=581015&sku=C13-2608

ya stupid tigerdirect doesnt carry the 8350 and thats the site i gotta buy from due to billmelater haha buuut im guessing the 8320 and 8350 arent drastically different

For my new build I'm running... FX-8320 ASUS M5A97 XFX HD 7770 Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600MHz Don't plan on any overclocking or crossfire... So my last step is PSU. I'm still a noobie and I don't know how to figure out what kind of PSU I should get, so any advice on how to figure it out would...

oh ok cool thanks. i guess ill just go with what im going with and if i need to upgrade for that game then i will. for now, this should work fine :)

well lets say, if i do want to play like arma 3 when it comes out, would i be able to run that at least mid level with what i got or would i need something else?

well since my budget is $800 max for everything I need this is what I have just figured out I can probably go with... FX-8320..... $159 ASUS M5A97..... $99 XFX HD 7770..... $119 all from tigerdirect.com This good for what I plan on doing?

thanks! i appreciate it
