Good Gaming Build?

[SixHunters129]

Hey! I'm about to build a computer and i was wondering if this is a good build for next-gen gaming.


CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming ATX LGA1155 Motherboard

Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory

Storage: Samsung 840 Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Disk

Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Video Card : EVGA GeForce GTX 770 2GB


Case : NZXT Phantom (Black) ATX Full Tower Case

Power Supply: SeaSonic M12II 650W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V / EPS12V



I will be playing games like Skyrim, Far Cry 3, And most next-gen games.

P.S. Is that power supply good enough? I've heard the GTX 770 requires a Power Supply that has 42 amps on its 12 volt rail (I don't know what that means) but does this Power Supply have that?

Thanks!

Id take the faster, cheaper Gigabyte w/ free game over the EVGA GFX card

WD Black over the Blue

Corsair 500R over the phantom

Id size the PSU for a 2nd 770 at some point on the future.

re: PSU, It certainly does. You can see in the product description it has 52A.

I think it's a very sensible build. The parts are well-balanced. The only think I would consider changing is the case. Full tower cases are huge. A mid tower case is more than enough. Truth be told, you could go as small as a mini-ITX with this build if you wanted to. Mini ITX is what I recommend for gamers, since its easy to move around and doesn't take up much space.

Yeah, I would get a smaller case but i really like all the perks of the phantom.
