How Does This Look?

[SkippTheFlipp]

Ok so this Is my first pc build and I am learning as I go and researching ALOT.... My question is how does this setup look will everything run good and will I have a epic gaming pc!!!!! If I am missing anything please inform me.

P.S. I know everyone has there own opinions but I am not looking to change my case unless it is necessary I like the look and think it should cool just fine......

I can honestly say I am outraged with the price of this beast!

The GPU is astonishing, The CPU is stunning.. I can go on and on about this elegant PC you got!

great value for a great pc, one of the best pc setups i have ever seen (seriously). good job 😀

Its a good build. only thing i would do is switch the corsair RM model psu for something better built. and possibly go to socket 2011 when building such a high end pc, it gives more upgrade options in future. Heres an alternative idea of what you could do for about the same price:

Looks very good to me

What do you mean by go to socket 2011..... like I said I'm still learning xD

I wouldn't pick a 5820k over a 4790k for a gaming build, you would need to go higher up the X99 food chain. The stronger single core performance of the 4790k means it often performs better in games or at the very least just as well as the 5820k.

they are going to be very similar for gaming, but then you have 2 cores left over for anything else.....I have seen the benches and there is no significant difference between them for gaming, so for the love of god i would chose the 6 core beast with quad channel ram. you would not have to upgrade that cpu for a very long time.

so what exactly are you saying I should go with a 4790k cuz 5820k would be irrelevant

ok I understand what your saying but I don't plan on doin much else other then 2way sli.... the next time I do more to my pc wont be for proly 3-4 years and I really don't think my pc will be that bad plus I looked at the benchmarks and the are only like 10fps better so I think I will stay

Its a fair view but keeping in mind this is a gaming build and games are barely using more than 4 threads today, some do benefit from more but the gains are small and by the time games start being able to utilise more than 8 threads I suspect both the 4790k and 5820k will be obsolete. The 4790k is cheaper overall and performs better today and for the foreseeable future. Either will be great but I would rather a 4790k setup and use the money saved on other components.

Running games off of Wi-Fi gives me nightmares...

Surprised noone has mentioned he's vastly overspending on the SSD:
500gb for $177 http://pcpartpicker.com/part/samsung-internal-hard-drive-mz75e500bam
250gb for $102 http://pcpartpicker.com/part/samsung-internal-hard-drive-mz75e250bam

but the build i put together actually costs slightly less than the 4790k rig....hmm, i'd take the 6 core rig anyday. Games are more and more taking advantage of more cores, not to mention if your playing large multiplayer maps of bf4 or similar the more cores the better.
