Going to buy this pc**

will you be overclocking the CPU?
you dont need 16GB of RAM, 8 will be enough.
the power supply isnt good quality for a gaming rig.

 

[Harry Pickel]

I already have a CPU cooler and what power supple would u recommend for $79

 

[Talesseed]

1) This rig is good but:
2) The Samsung 840 Evo is a better SSD
3) The PSU isn't good, if you want to go Corsair then take a TX, RM or AX

 

[Harry Pickel]

My price limit is $1380 edit to a good build

you can change the case if you want. or get more case fan cooling.

also dropping the 780 to a R9 290 will give you $100 extra for your budget with very similar performance

 

[Harry Pickel]

It has to be at least 650 watts

 

[Talesseed]

I think 620W will be fine

I never like spending that much money on a PSU and still having only a bronze one.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151119
Seasonic 550W G series. $87 shipped.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182068
Rosewill Capstone 550W. $70 shipped.

Both of these are 550W gold rated units. Nearly the same 12V power output as the 620 (3A/36V less.) and will be cheaper to run in the long term. They will all be fine to use as long as you aren't doing any major overclocking.

Looks fine, have you considered a r9 290x though? it's roughly the same price but offers 780 ti performance

 

[4745454b]

Pretty good. PSU is fine as long as that rebate comes in. If it doesn't, you overpaid. Do you need the 16GBs of ram? I also stopped buying DVD drives. Bluray readers are minimum for me. Though I use my PC for nearly everything. I would also consider the R9 290x, though it's really a personal preference call.

 

[Harry Pickel]

I would but I want the stuff nvidia offers like shadow play

ahh okay, amd do recording software too that comes with their amd cards but nvidia are more stable and reliable, not to mention lower temps and quieter

How much fps will I get on next gen games

 

[legend001523]

How much fps will I get on next gen games

on a 1080p monitor? currently, 60-80fps , games like witcher 3 will probably be a stable 60fps on ultra, if that's what you consider a next gen game

 

[Harry Pickel]

Yep it is thanks for the help man
