Confirming my build before i buy.

[tofraz]

I'm at my final stage before i buy the components for my new computer, so i'm gonna check if everything are going to run smooth once assembled.

Please remind me if there is something i have forgotten anything or if there is anything not compatible with each other.



Do i need anything else like a network card or something?

Are you sure you want that expensive case? There are other cool cases that are cheaper such as the:

and the Corsair Obsidian 650D

Everything else looks fine, although you really don't need a 850W PSU, a 750W would be more than enough for SLI in the future.

Finally: You don't need a network card if you're going to use the ethernet cable. If you are going wireless, then you need a wireless adapter, although if you're gaming, I do not recommend wireless

I guess i buy a cable fir my network. Im investing in a complete computer for the last time so ill spend a little ekstra, total it cost around $3000 but now i dont have to update my computer for years and i plan to use that case for a long time.

You are missing an operating system. You do plan to use windows right? Or do you already have an os?

 

[tofraz]

Alredy have w7 ultimate so don't need to spend money on that. Altough i might buy water cooling if the default fan isnt good enough.

 

[zolton33]

If you plan to over clock then a new better cpu fan is recommended. I doubt the one that comes with it would work very well (it is designed to handle the cpu under normal running not oced)

 

[tofraz]

Yeah im aware of that, but with this computer i doubt it would need overclocking at all.

If you want, you can go down to the Intel i5 2500K:

It is similar to the i7 only with a 100Mhz lower stock clock and cannot hyperthread. Gaming performance difference btwn the i5 and the i7 is negligible so it's better to save around $100 for a cheaper CPU since games don't utilize more than 2-3 cores.
