Building my first computer

[Willy07]

Hello all. I'm building my first computer and I wanted to put the specs up to see if they all match.

Mothe board: Asus prime 270z
Cpu: Intel 7th gen I5 7600k
Gpu:geforce gtx 1050 ti 4g
Cpu cooler: enemax side flow ets t40
Ram: corsair vengeance lpx DDR4 3200
Ssd: Samsung pro or hyper x
Power supply: corsair rm750x 750 watts

Any suggestions?

They do match.

Thank you. I may be changing the I5 chip to an I7 for gaming. This will be an all around computer! Gaming, movies, entertainment. I will be getting an external Blu ray drive as well. Thank you!

You could also use better GPU for serious gaming.

Yes I meant to type that before. I'm looking at the MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6gb. Or should I find something better?

Well. as long as you can afford it, even best card would be matched by rest of the system. Even if you don't switch to i7.

So what your saying is keep the I5 with the better GPU I listed above and I will be able to run 90% of games just fine? I'll also have either 16 or 24 GB of RAM.

Not better but cheaper and i7 would be no better at gaming so it might be better to sink the money difference in a GPU.

Good point. Plus I could always just open the case up later and switch them if I needed to. So I'll stick with the second GPU I listed then?

You might as well, that platform will be viable for some time to come.

Thank you very much. On top of the ram, I shouldn't see any type of slow down during a heavy load. My case has sufficient ventilation. The crosair 570x. With the dual CPU fan should keep me running cool.

 

[CountMike]

Yes, and there's also possibility to OC if and when it may be needed.

Thank you! Now is time to search and find the best prices! Haha. I'll be nervous but I'm sure I'll be fine. I'll watch a YouTube video as I'm putting it together just to be safe.

And even better, print manuals as needed, they provide more particular information. I usually download manuals even before buying parts, they provide much more information about parts. More information, more understanding of capabilities.

Yes thank you! I just want everything to boot properly on the first go so I can install windows does 64 bit. And start enjoying my new build once I buy it.
