http://pcpartpicker.com/p/K9WVf7

What in the cart should I make
Better? (Upgrade)

How many FPS would I get on minecraft high settings?

Fps on battlefield 4 ultra?

Does the motherboard contain the USB to plugin like a phone charger or something?

How do i make it a wireless pc not just wired?

How do i build it?

Anything else i should add like bluetooth or anything? (I want it to be like a prebuild pc with like wifi, usb, and stuff)


Will it work like any other pc?


What will i need to build it (screwdrivers) or anything??

My new build

Are these compatible??
There is like an error or it says something that says its not in the bottom "The G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory operating voltage of 1.65V exceeds the Intel Haswell Refresh CPU recommended maximum of 1.5V+5% (1.575V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.5V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum."

Also will this PC have a HDMI/Ethernet/USB connections??

Should I make any changes?
Budget $1,300

I would go with 1866mhz ram instead to resolve that issue, the difference in speed isn't noticeable while gaming.

I tweaked the build a bit, and I got you a black/red colour scheme for the Case, gpu and RAM so enjoy the awesome colours. Even the motherboard has a bit of a colour scheme.

^ looks good expect that PSU. Despite being GOLD certified, the EVGA G1 units are not very good quality. Change it back to an XFX, Antec, Seasonic.

 

[sora]

i would use 550-600W PSU for single GTX 970

Wouldn't that be pretty tight? I'd prefer to use a 650W or 750W power supply manufactured by Seasonic or XFX.

 

[tiny voices]

Nope, 500-600w is more than enough for a 970. It can only pull 164w under MAX 100% load.

An overclocked i5 build with a 970 will use between 300-350w under FULL gaming load.

 

[Zombehh]

So should I just change the PSU and I'm good to go?
Also
Does the pc have USB/Ethernet/HDMI connections??
does it come with ALL of the cables to turn it on and stuff?
And will i be able to use it excessively?

 

[tiny voices]

YEs the motherboard has all those connections and it will come with sATA cables. The PSU has all the other cables.

Yes, change the PSU and you are good to go.

What do you mean "use it excessively"? Yes, it is a computer. Just use it. It won't like break down if you use it too much.

 

[Zombehh]

Alright Thank you so much! so thats all i need? all those parts will make a pc i dont need no other parts that aren't there right?

EDIT: Forget it, I was wrong.

No...that was TOTAL SYSTEM POWER CONSUMPTION. NOT just the GPU. The GPU pulls 164w MAX.

*Massive facepalm*

My bad.

 

[tiny voices]

Many review sites use "total system consumption" because it is WAY easier to measure accurately then just the GPU. This is very common with reviews and trips people up ALL the time. Easy mistake. They should state it more clearly.

Yeah, especially since the graph SAYS 970 power consumption 😛

Anyway, I've just seen the rather small writing that says "total system power consumption"...

YEah, then with little test it says total system power consumption in watts. Confusing.

 

[Zombehh]

Do you know any good USB wireless adapters? if you do can you send me a link from pcpartpicker? ive been trying to search but many of them have bad reviews on how they lose connection alot

Bets all around one without spending like $70. This is the one I always recommend to everyone and people seem to really like it.

 

[Zombehh]

thanks!! 😀 is it good for online gaming? or downloads?

 

[tiny voices]

I would not really consider any wireless connection "good" for gaming or downloads. It will work fine and let you game and download stuff perfectly acceptably. Will it be as fast and reliable as a wired connection? No certainly not.

 

[Zombehh]

Alright thank you! 😀 I have 1 more question
I posted my cart on twitter saying that Ima build it and someone tweeted me back with "8 gigs of ram? have fun putting the cpu cooler in haha"

Also how would I know if everything fits in the tower or even how would I know where everything goes? 🙁

 

[tiny voices]

Yes everything will fit fine. The RAM is low profile so the cooler will fit easily. Whoever said that has no knowledge of anything.

 

[Zombehh]

Thank you so much tiny voices!!!!!! Is it easy to know where everything goes in the tower?

 

[tiny voices]

Just watch the video posted above. It clearly shows you how to assemble a computer. Just take your time any have fun.
