Hey all! a few build questions.

[melancholydienasty]

so im building a pc for the first time, and i just need some clarification! so as a guide ill just post the links to the EXACT hardware im getting, i just need a few people in the know to check for me if they will all work together.

I also need to know that cables im getting for the parts, a list would be great, i dont know if everything comes with the corde/cables/wires or what. once i know that everything will work and i have all the parts my uncle is helping me build it! 😀

Everything you purchase should come with its own cables, usually they include more than you need. I have such a large collection of extra cabling simply because of this. Everything looks good, but I do not see any RAM in your list. The motherboard is ATX which is supported by the tower. The motherboard accepts the socket type for your processor. The motherboard has enough PCIE 3.0 slots for your two graphics cards. The only thing I am unsure about, is if the power supply is powerful enough. I would assume 600W is good enough, but I am unsure of what kind of power drainage the water cooling system has, so hopefully someone can give a second opinion on that matter.

Anyhow, everything looks good to go so far. Best of luck with your first build. - Sub

ah right forgot the RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?gclid=COzSibn9kb0CFewDOgod3jIAIQ&Item=N82E16820233265&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Laptop+Memory-_-N82E16820233265&ef_id=UxvNCgAABOt5hLHv:20140314120213:s

ok thats great, and the two GPU will attach to the motherboard, not the monitor correct? because i only have one hdmi slot on this monitor.

 

[SirSub42]

That RAM is meant for a laptop.

Also, I have no experience with dual monitor setups, but I would assume you can chose which output you decide to connect your monitor to, meaning it's either/or for whichever card you connect the monitor to. The dual monitor setup from what I recall was an option within the Radeon setup screen.

alright, so ive changed the graphics cards to http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?gclid=CI7w7vjYlr0CFRQaOgodLhMAWA&Item=N82E16814121779&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Desktop+Graphics+Cards-_-N82E16814121779&ef_id=UxvNCgAABOt5hLHv:20140316090214:s

and the psu to this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?gclid=CJfusLLclr0CFZJj7AodDg8ASg&Item=N82E16817139057&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Power+Supplies-_-N82E16817139057&ef_id=UxvNCgAABOt5hLHv:20140316091740:s

are these two compatible with everything else still? what ram do i need to be looking at? im not sure about matching up ram. corsair 16 GB preferably, links please?

EDIT, heres the RAM i picked out, cl9 is good for gaming plus the heat distribution. will these be compatible? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?gclid=CJ6LiMjglr0CFYuXOgodSCYAtw&Item=N82E16820233287&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Desktop+Memory-_-N82E16820233287&ef_id=UxvNCgAABOt5hLHv:20140316093619:s

Everything still looks good to go. Nice choice on the 80 Plus Gold power supply. Upping it to 1000W should be more than enough. Your RAM is compatible as well. the 240 PIN 1866 DDR3 is good to go for your motherboard.
