Help with a Gaming Build.

[Dan C]

Looking for a bit of help me my build. Will be gaming on a 1920x1080 Vizio TV. Need assistance mostly the G-card and Ram. Never overclocked before but was looking to OC the processor and g-card, possibly the RAM up to 1866 if i get 1600 ram. I know my Power supply is more then i need, trying to help for future upgrades. Now to some of my concerns. Any other input would be greatly vauled
Does the haswell architechture make 2400speed RAM worth it?
Is the gtx960 by EVGA over clocked enough to make up for the small 128-bit memory interface?
Would it be worth to get a cheaper case/SSD/RAM/Power Supply to get a more expensive card?
Total Budget $1050
Total Cost of my cart is $1055.90

everything is looking good but i dont know about that case tho. i would also get a aftermarket cooler for that cpu. that mobo is amazing i have it myself

 

[chrisb99]

for a case i would get a Corsair Carbide Series 200R or a graphite 230t. they are the same internally. the only difference is the fans and the outside

 

[Dan C]

I picked that case because of the included fans and cable management.

What would you recommend on an aftermarket cooler? I didn't even consider it. This is my first venture into PC building.

 

[chrisb99]

the graphite has good enough cooling and its cheaper and you could just add another fan. if you just want a cheap cooler that is very good bang for buck i would get the cooler master hyper 212 evo. it is comatible With the Corsair carbide 200r and the the Graphite 230t

Thanks for the assistance Chrisb99. Much appreciated.

Went with the graphite 230t and the evo. If i'm going to OC it, better safe then sorry.
