first pc gaming build

[downhill55]

i would like some people to review a build that i might build in the next couple of weeks

Intel Core i5-4460
ASRock Fatal1ty H97 Killer
Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB
Seagate Barracuda 1TB
Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX
Fractal Design Define R5
EVGA 600B 600W 80+ Bronze Certified
Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM (64-bit)

Get the ASRock H97 Performance instead of Killer unless you are actually going to use the M.2 port the Killer offers since it's the only difference.
That specific EVGA is not very good. I recommend a 550w XFX or Antec, but really any Seasonic or EVGA GS, G2, B2, or Rosewill Capstone are great too.

what about EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 750W 80+ Bronze is that any good

 

[CTurbo]

No the SuperNOVA NEX is a G1 model and is no where near as good an any of the ones I mentioned.

ok i was looking at the reviews for ASRock H97 Performance and they weren't very good any thoughts.

 

[CTurbo]

The Performance and Killer are literally the same except the Killer supports M.2. They are both very good boards. Better than most sub Z boards. The Killer is not worth the extra $15.

How màny watts should i have in this build

 

[CTurbo]

550w is plenty, but grab this 650w unit as it's a good deal right now

Is this a solid build for 1080p 60hz and the upcoming game star wars battlefront?
