Hello,
I am planning to build a new pc able to run cryengine 3 (Star Citizen) in ultra settings in 2k resolution, and I need some guidance. Bassically I don't know if I would need SLI or a more powerful PSU. Also I cannot decide from 2 motherboards, and maybe the CPU is overkill. The RAM brand is unknown to me, so any positive or negative feedback would be appreciated. Here are the parts:
CPU: Core i7-5820K, LGA2011-V3, 3,3 GHz,15Mb
MOBO: Asus X99-A, LGA2011-v3, Intel X99, DDR4, ATX
Or
Gigabyte X99-UD4, Intel X99 Mainboard - Socket 2011-V3
RAM: Crucial 8GB (2x4GB) Ballistix Sport DDR4 CL16 1.2V
PSU: XFX 650W XXX Edition Semi Modular ATX, 80+ Bronze
GPU: Gygabyte GTX 970 Gaming, 4GB GDDR5, PCI-E 3.0
CPU Cooler: Cooler master Hyper 212 EVO LGA2011/1366/115x/775, AM3/3+/2/2+
Chasis cooler (x4): Silverstone SST-AP121-RL
Total price: 1693.32$
I have thought of going for an I7 4790k with Asus sabertooth mobo and DDR3, it would reduce the price about 300$ but the additional 2 cores of the 5820k make me want to take the leap. What would you reccomend?
