last check before ordering

[Krabbers]

hello guys, just wondering if everything is compatible and optimal before ordering the build:

EDIT: I know crazy amount of ram, but it was requested.

I made a few adjustments to your build:

I switched out the power supply, the Seasonic model I selected has an excellent reputation
I also switched out your memory, picking a kit with 4 matched moduals will give you more stability because kits that are sold together are given extra testing for compatibility. I also selected 1600mhz units for you as your CPU is only rated for 1600mhz RAM and your motherboard wont see anything higher then 1600 without overclocking.

I am assuming this build is for gaming? If you plan to overclock you will need a differnt CPU and motherboard.

The XFX PSU that OP had selected IS a Seasonic unit..

a some kind of universal build. playing high end games and working with programs connected with creating music or something like that.

There is no way he needs that RAM. I promise. Get 16gb max.

I know. but im not building this for myself, and the person its going to insisted on 32gb ^^ so I don't really care if he cannot take advice

As Tiny Voices Suggested, 32 gigs is proabably more then you will use if you dont have a specific need for it. If you go with 16GB then I suggest this kit:

Its actually quite a bit faster then the other RAM kit I suggested.

@Tiny Voices: Yes Seasonic makes power supplies for XFX but the quality is not the same, The unit he listed is a notch below the Seasonic M12 II unit I suggested. Both are excellent units, dont get me wrong. but the Seasonic M12 II has a slightly better rating.

 

[tiny voices]

No it is not any worse actually. They both share about 90% of the same internal parts. They are effectively the same quality.

Also remember user reviews mean nothing.

 

[DHFF]

ok.
