PC BUILD (Error from PC PART PICKER?)

[Jose Colon]

Hello guys and thank you in advance!

Next month i will be building a new pc....

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/6wH2dC

For some reason its giving me this error
/// Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs.///

Will this cause me any problems?

Just trying to make sure i wont have any problems when putting it all together once all the components are delivered....I already have the o.s btw 😀.... any suggestions please do tell me! my budget is 1000 US$

That is not an error, but rather a warning from the earlier days of the AM3+ socket when the FX series just launched its third generation.
Honestly, that should be removed at this point, as the boards ship with the updated BIOS.

However, if this build is for gaming, here is a much better option for 1k.

The CPU is newer thanthe board its going to depend on what bios comes loaded on the particular board you receive. If it ends up being an older board you're sunk without an older cpu to update the bios with. I would say there is a 90% or better chance it'll work right out of the box, but not guaranteed

Ty for the quick response i have the above build due to where i live (dominican Republic) any merchandise over the price of 199 US (meaning 200 dollars and up ) they charge you almost twice what the pc cost in taxes wich id quite the hassle 😀 .....


So my build should work fine?

I see, your build is still fairly solid. An intel build with a better GPU would be better overall, however that may not be possible given your tax situation.
(I would recommend dropping the 8350 for an 8320, and getting a 990 chipset board such as: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-ga990fxaud3r5, as it is much better for OCing, I would also recommend making the switch to a samsung SSD, better performance, quality, and price)

 

[Supahos]

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/q24s23 also a fun skylake build mmmmm ddr4 memory and m2 ssd

Change out that r9 390 to a cheaper one and it will be closer to his budget

 

[Gam3r01]

Just because it is an M2 drive, does not make it better. In fact, that SSD is slower (just barely) than its sata counterpart.

 

[Supahos]

Didn't say it was faster, just no cables to route for power of sata cable, no ssd tray needed.... Just plug and go love it

this is a great futureproof build. drop the ssd if you want to save a few $$. Switch out the seagate for a WD blue or black because i dont like seagate, less reliable.

 

[Gam3r01]

Id rather deal with two cables and 4 screws for the extra write performance.
Neither the less, he is not located in the US, so prices are going to be MUCH higher on that build.

 

[Supahos]

I used to run only wd black drives in my builds then I had 4 to out on different pcs I've built for others in a 2 year stretch I've become less homer toward them since then (especially when one of the failures was on my own computer lol)

Thanks alot for the suggestion! I did some research on the options provided and they resulted better compatability and im no longer getting that annoying error.

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/JDXyMp so that is the updated link for the build what do you think?

Lol the price will be the exact retail price thats given on the pc part list//// All the items will be shipped to a P.O BOX in U.S and then sent to me here with a final delivery agent without any hassle.So the price should be accurate...or so i hope.
