is this build compatible?

[lskdjf]

hi,

i picked components that were spoke highly of online, and within my budget, and i was wondering if all of the components i chose are compatible; the last thing i want to do is order them and have them not function properly

Case: http://www.amazon.co.uk/CiT-Vantage-Type-R-Gaming-Reader/dp/B0064LFTR8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=undefined&sr=8-2&keywords=CIT+VANTAGE
GPU: http://www.amazon.co.uk/GeForce-DirectCU-Graphics-Express-Display/dp/B00DWV3NM6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1410109416&sr=8-1&keywords=gtx+780
PSU: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-Builder-Series-Modular-Certified/dp/B00ALK3QRS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1410080571&sr=8-1&keywords=psu+800w

PSU is low quality. Change to XFX, Antec, Seasonic

CPU is pointless. Get an 8350. The 9590 is SO HOT and won't really game any better than an 8350. honestly I would recommend going intel and getting an i5. This will give the best gaming results.

IF this is a gaming build, 8gb RAM is plenty.

you are missing a HDD.

I would change the case and get a more well known one. The case doesn't have 3.0 usb slots as well. If your going for that cpu as well you will need an aftermarket cooler as the 9590 doesn't come with a stock cooler. Have you thought about getting an i5? it would cost the same amount as the 9590 and its batter for gaming at the moment. And you seem to be missing a hdd unless you all ready have one?

ahh right yea thanks, i am missing a hdd.

i always thought an i7 was better than an i5? and an 8350 better than both, what would you say?

 

[tiny voices]

Nope, not at all. An i7 and i5 are equal in games. And an 8350 is slightly worse than both. Get an i5 ALWAYS for a gaming PC.

 

[lskdjf]

right, right.

would the motherboard and gpu fit inside the case do you think? and do you maybe know of any cases which would 100% fit these compoents?

thanks

 

[tiny voices]

A Corsair 200r or Corsair 300r are both VERY good cases for the money that will easily fit everything.

 

[lskdjf]

okay great, so except the cpu, psu and case, everything is good?

i honestly just chose a random motherboard haha, that concerned me a little

 

[tiny voices]

Yes, everything else is fine.

Get an i5 4690k and a z97 motherboard.

 

[lskdjf]

thanks

 

[tiny voices]

Always glad to help. Feel free to PM me if you need anything.

 

[TomSkini]

Yeh get a z97 motherboard. Nothing stupidly priced though, I would recommend an Asus Z97-A or MSI Z97-G55 SLI. And by the looks of it you are planning to overclock so you must get a cpu cooler. The Cooler Master hyper 212 evo is the best value CPU cooler out there.

ahh right yea thanks, i am missing a hdd.

i always thought an i7 was better than an i5? and an 8350 better than both, what would you say?

Nope. The i7 does have hyperthreading but nothing really utilizes hyperthreading and it is only useful if you are doing some heavy workplace tasks.
