comment and tell me what you think thanks BUYING TOMOZ
 
*Everything seems ok but why are you buying a 850w PSU??? unless you're planning to add 2 extra GTX 660ti in a close future (2 months) there is no point to buy such an overkill PSU, a 550w will be enough...i want to point out that 99 times out of 100 people say that they're going to add a second or third car when the next gen of GPUs come out...usually that NEVER happens.

*Asus Sabertooth is an OK board, it has nice features but its waaay overpriced and overated, either buy a Gigabyte G1. Sniper 3 (for 3way SLI) or a simple but extremely good Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 (for 2way SLI only)

*That SSD is ok but there definetly better options like the Vertex 4, Samsung 830, Crucial M4 or Muskin Chronos deluxe.

*That CPU cooler is going to brutally kill ALL your system aesthetics, buy a H100 that performs a bit better (if you replace the fans it will perform waaay better)

*I doubt you need 16GB (unless you're going to do heavy video editing) buy 8GB, that will way more than enough and use the money saved somewhere else.

*That case is nice but for a little bit more you can buy a BitFenix Colossus or for a bit less you can buy the NZXT Phantom or NZXT Whisper.

i am going to get 2 GTX 660 ti
i will take a look at the mother board
everyone keeps saying the Corsair gt ssd is very good
16gb i put down to 8
going to keep the case i got
and also about the CPU Cooler i hear the Corsair h100 is very LOUD want to overclock to 4.00GHz so will the cooler master 212 evo WORK?
 



*do not listen to what anyone says, only listen to those who have prof of what they say and i say that any of the SSDs i mentioned are better than the Corsair GT, you can Google it yourself, i dont feel like looking into benchmarks right now.

*That case isn't bad... keep it if you like it 😀

*The Corsair H100 under full load with stock fan IS LOUD but not if you replace the fans with quality ones... you can also buy this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/thermaltake-cpu-cooler-clw0217 that cooler comes with pre applied high quality fans, it performs better than the H100 and it does it while been quieter.

*You should have said that you are only planning to overclock to 4.0 before...the Coolermaster 212 EVO is more than enough for that.
 

cool thanks man so going to get the coolermaster 212 evo and change the Corsair GT ones i look at benchmarks 😀

Thanks for the Help
 


lol, easy, next to any of my anwsers there is a small golden title that says "Pick as best anwser" or something like that.

Its not that... imagine if you and i both give advises to the same person... is that person going to trust more in you or me??? obviously you because you have higher rank
