first i choose a 960 if you are on a budget if your not go with the 970 way better, second i changed the psu to something that can handle all the load of the system but it comes at a 80$ price tag i choose this psu because the one you choose was absolute crap for overclocked parts and it isnt a reliable psu at all more of a basic use psu. i also changed the ram because from what i read on review they are sometimes on wrong voltages one might be 1.3v and the other 1.5v and they will not work together so i wouldn't risk that. Also last thing do you know how to overclock a cpu before buying one?

 

[Jose8399]

I dont know how to overclock... This is my first build and I have zero experience with overclocking...

Also thx for the tips

 

[shadows1234]

well if you dont know how to overclock i wouldnt recommend you try it first know how a pc works settings and such before attempting to overclock

 

[shadows1234]

i made a revised build for non overclocking
