Help With PC Build

[Ambivalence97]

Gaming is my priority with some non extensive video editing. I thought the gforce titan was not efficient?

The price-to-power equation does not smile on the GTX Titan, that's for sure. On the other hand, it doesn't have the same issues that CrossFires, SLIs, and dual-GPU cards have.

What card should I get? would the geforce gtx 680 be good for gaming?

As you see, I advocate a CrossFire of 7970 ghz. Editions. Other efficient options include an SLI of 670 FTW editions, and, to a lesser degree, both of the flagship dual-GPUs. It's hard to be less efficient than the Titan.
The 680 is an acceptable card, but the gains compared to the 670 are fairly small.

It's not. But running Crysis 3 with everything maxed out and not using more than one GPU and being efficient and in-budget are goals that have a lot of conflict with each other. To get the best build proposal, you're going to have to outline goals you prioritize.

Jack and Transmaniacon have both given you excellent advice on multiple GPUs, but if you need settings as high as possible without going to SLI/Crossfire, your choices are going to be less efficient in some ways.

What can I do to make this prioritized for Gaming and trying to stay withing 2500 ?

 

[Transmaniacon]

Drop that 680 and go with dual 670s.

You don't need more than 8GB of RAM.

Unless you want to do 3D gaming, you don't need to spend $270 on a monitor. You can get the VE248H for $160.

You will need to bump up the PSU, something like this would be great: http://pcpartpicker.com/mr/newegg/corsair-power-supply-cmpsu750txv2

This only adds about $200 to the cost of your build, keeping you well under your $2500 goal, giving you GTX 670 SLI, a very capable power supply, and you get the i7-3770K and all the peripherals you want. You will see zero gaming performance difference with 8GB of RAM vs. 16GB. And you can still go back to the nicer monitor if you want.

Oh and no reason to buy the full version of windows... Get the OEM for $130 bucks and save yourself another $140.

Other than using some variant of the two builds we've presented, you could cut down to an OEM copy of windows (saving $180), use a cheaper optical drive such as this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135204&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= (saving $30), improve you cooler to a Noctua DH14: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835608018&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= (costing $50), and replace your CPU with either an SLI of EVGA 670 Signature FTWs: http://us.ncix.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=77327&vpn=02G-P4-3677-KR&manufacture=eVGA&promoid=1168 (costing $363.52) or a CrossFire of Sapphire Vapor-X Ghz. Editions: http://www.superbiiz.com/detail.php?name=AT-7970GHZ&c=CJ (costing $451.5)

Total: $2,483.46 (670 FTWs), $2571.44 (7970 Vapor-Xs)

Edit: Transmaniacon makes a good point, you'll need to upgrade your PSU as well.

 

[Jack Revenant]

Unless you want to do 3D gaming, you don't need to spend $270 on a monitor. You can get the VE248H for $160.

I humbly disagree. A 144hz monitor can be a significant quality of life improvement over a 60hz.

Edit: Also, to the RAM, given that this is not a pure gaming machine, he may have applications which require more RAM.

Sure, but if gaming his priority, I would rather have the extra graphical horsepower; to each their own.

He mentioned non-extensive video editing, I would wager he won't ever use up the 8GB of RAM, but he is going to have to make some decisions to stay in budget.

Oh, I'll definitely grant you that graphical horsepower is more important for me, but we can't really be sure of his needs, particularly given how vague he was. If he plays competitive shooters, for example, a higher refresh rate could actually be more important.

Sacrifices must be mafde, it's true, although he had previously implied that his budget could flex as far as $3,000. Not to say that we should take that as an invitation to spend that much, but sometimes it's better to flex than to cut.

 

[Transmaniacon]

Yeah agreed, he did mention he wants to max crysis, which I think is asking a lot from a single 670.

Personally, cut back on the RAM first, its easy to upgrade later on. Same can be said for the GPUs, get one now and another a little later if need be. Things like the monitor and PSU you will want to buy for the future because you will have to replace those completely instead of just adding.

Oh, we are completely in agreement about maxing Crysis. Frankly, I just don't see it happening on a single-GPU setup.

Fair enough, RAM's definitely not the most important thing to future-proof on. On the other hand, you don't save terribly much on it. However, if it comes down to it, you're right that he should cut RAM first.

Definitely a functional build, though I'd like to see 670 FTWs or 7970 Vapor-Xs, myself. That said, it should be able to pull down 60 FPS on Crysis at max settings, to my understanding. If you want to upgrade your graphics, you could cut back the 3770k to a 3570k.

Looks good to me. Happy gaming!

How well with it run heavy games on max settings?

 

[Transmaniacon]

You will crush everything with SLI 670s.

 

[Ambivalence97]

And how well will the parts fit in the case since I am having two graphics cards?

 

[Transmaniacon]

Yes the GPUs will both fit, as well as your CPU cooler. You can verify the dimensions for yourself on their product website, but I just checked.

GPU length = 242mm, Clearance = 325mm

CPU Cooler Height = 158mm, Clearance = 165mm
