Cheapest 3930k build

[werner25]

Hello all,

I have searched on different websites for cheap components for a cheap build with the 3930k processor.
I chose this processor because my chess-programs can use all the cores and plays the strongest with the 3930k.

I know it are mostly cheap components around an very expensive cpu, but will it give problems?

none of those are bad components. I have the same RAM, the PSU is OK, the mobo is OK.

That power supply is a no go look here http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/323050.aspx

Thanks for the replies. I'm checking alternatives for the power supply. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371031 this one looks better, but slightly more expensive.

its not too bad actually http://xsreviews.co.uk/reviews/power-supply-units/thermaltake-tr2-700w/5/ I'd trust these more than egg customers.

 

[bigcyco1]

I trust this Tier 5 - Other than the units listed above for any of these brands, NOT RECOMMENDED. Replace ASAP if you have one. http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/323050.aspx that's not newegg customers

the X79 has quad channel memory. doesn't make a whole lot of sense to put a single stick of ram in it. a ssd would also be good.
