Looking for opinions on these components and if they will make a good system. Ready to order soon, so I'd love to know what you guys think!
Hey Guys,
I am about to order the parts for my build, and I'd like to know what you guys thought, and if theres anything I should change.
My build is primarily for Oculus Rift gaming, and 1080p gaming.
The oculus recommended specs state a 4590 as the recommended cpu or higher. Will the 4460 give similar performance?
I put a 970 in there, but I don't plan on actually purchasing the graphics card right away. I am waiting to see what AMD announces soon. However, I will likely purchase something similar or a bit more powerful, so I'd like a PSU that can easily handle whatever card I get.
I won't be OCing, or SLI or CF.
My questions are this:
Will these components work well together?
Is the PSU a good choice? Overkill? Underkill? I want a quality modular one, but on a budget.
Thanks for your input!
