I'm building a new gaming pc.

[ASSATONE]

I'm building a new gaming pc and I would like to see if it's all compatible and any good. I'm also open to suggestions, specs are:

-Gigabyte GA-Z97X motherboard
-Intel Core i5-4690K Processor
-Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 Overclocked
-Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB ram
- Apevia Warlock 900-Watt Power Supply
-WD Blue 1TB hard drive
-Kingston Digital 120GB SSD
-LG Blu-Ray Burner
-Gigabyte Bluetooth 4.0/WiFi Expansion Card
-NZXT phantom 820 full tower

All your parts are compatible and looks like it will be a good build when completed! 😀

What form of cooling are you going to be going for though? I'm assuming you want to overclock with that build

- Apevia Warlock 900-Watt Power Supply = Trash.

See Here:

Also see here for how much power you really need:

900 watts would be for 3 x GTX 970s.

I'm just going to use fans to cool it for now but when I do overclock it I'll switch to liquid cooling

Also you should start with DDR3 2133 RAM for that build as you didn't list a speed. DDR3 2400 would be optimal as it's cheap right now.

Wouldn't do a full tower unless running like 3x gpu's.

Why a blu ray burner? A dvd writer is sufficient.

Thanks for your help

I want a full tower so that I don't have to worry about space when I put another gpu in it and a liquid cooling system

The Phantom 820 is an amazing case. Had mine a little over a year now and I love it.

In fact had these from a build thread if you are interested.

The full RGB LEDs look great. Sorry for the crappy camera.

It's so awesome looking haha

I replaced an Antec 1200 with it and this is a much better case.
