Hello,
This was my first time building budget gaming computer.
I did some research as I bought the components, but now that I have everything and ready to go I was wondering if there's no problem with this build.
Here is the list of my components:
CPU - Intel Core I3-2100 LGA 1155
MOBO - Gigabyte H61MA-D3V
GPU - Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 OC edition
RAM - Ballistix (2x2gb) PC-12800 DDR3 - 1333
PSU - OCZ ModXstream Pro 600W 80 Plus Certified.
HDD - None
SSD - OCZ Agility3 90GB
CASE - Cougar Solution + 140mm Cougar case fan
I was not really looking to oc since I am a newb. but the fact that I have oc edition GPU worries me. Do I need OC-able cpu and mobo for GPU?
I think 600W should be enough to run my build. please correct me if I am wrong. I do have external Storage so did not include HDD and decided to give SSD a try.
I did not get any Optical drive since I can install Windows 7 from a USB and do not think it was necessary to have it.
