New PC Build thougths?

[Shery999]

Hi guys, just built me new pc, wanted to know what you guys think of it. I didn't build this pc for gaming , it was more for a good performing system which can do do editing and rendering as fast as possible. So here are the specs:

Intel i7 4770K,
Asus Z87 Pro Motherboard,
12GB DDR3 HyperxBlu Ram,
Zotac Geforce GTX 970 4GB DDR5,
256GB Kingston SSD (Windows 7 OS)
1TB WD Caviar Black,
750w PSU (cheap one - came with the case)

So what do you guys think? Is it good enough?

Few things here.

One, not sure it matters what we think, if you've already built it, as you say.

Two, if you value the rig, and want to keep it for long, get rid of the cheap included PSU and get a quality unit. The PSU is the most important piece of hardware in the case. That's a nice homebuilt system and I'd hate for you to lose it. You want a Tier 2B or higher PSU for that build.

And here's why: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/low-cost-psu-pc-power-supply,2862.html


Three, change the PSU, unless the brand and model number on the label of the PSU lands it at or above Tier 3 on the list.

Ok, I know I said that part twice, but I felt it was necessary to reinforce the fact. Do that and it will last you a good long time. Don't just go by brand or watts either, the model number and series are everything.

Looks good - but why the 4770k rather than the newer, higher clock rate, same priced 4790k? Just asking. Also, you might want to replace the PSU if it is a cheap crappy one as it might fail - you don't want that happening
Other than that, it looks great!

Might not be the same price where she's at. Just a thought.
