Hi folks,
Just wanted your opinions on this build I put together. I haven't picked a GPU yet...thinking about using the iGPU for the moment and buy the GTX680 as its rumoured to be released in Feb. If not, then perhaps a 580?
Approximate Purchase Date: < a month
Budget Range: £1,600 ($2,500) max. I think parts in the UK are more expensive unfortunately!
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, movies and browsing. Doubt I'll be doing much else!
Parts Not Required: OS
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: From the UK so British sites. Novatech preferably.
Country: UK
Parts Preferences: n/a
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: Ideally not.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Monitor: BenQ XL2410T 24"
Case: NZXT Phantom Black Full Tower
Disc drive: LG GH22NS70
Mobo: Asus P8Z68-V Pro/Gen3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155)
CPU: i5 2500k
RAM: G.Skill RipjawsX 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit
CPU cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212
PSU: Corsair TX 750W....unnecessary?
HDD: Samsung Spin Point F3 SATAII 1TB 32MB Cache Hard Drive
SSD: Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s
Please let me know what you lot think, especially with regard to the GPU. I realise its a fairly run of the mill 2500k gaming build, but it's always nice to get some advice/criticism as this will be my first build
Thanks
