Tip for pc and monitor

[Hariz28]

So the config is:

Motherboard: ASUS H81M-K INTEL H81 1150
RAM: G.SKILL 1x8 GB DDR3-1600 Mhz RipjawsX
CPU:INTEL Core i5-4460 3.20GHz 6MB
GPU:VGA SAPPHIRE R7 260X 1GB DDR5
HDD: WD 1 TB BLUE SATA-6Gb, 7200 rpm, 64 MB
Case: Cooler Master Gaming K380
PSU:ATX SilverStone( 700W, 80 Plus Bronze (SST-ST70F-ESB Strider Essential)

Is the confg. ok or should some changes be made ?

And what monitor is better to take:
Monitor BENQ GL2460HM, 24" LED
or
Asus 23,6" LED Monitor VS247NR

POwer supply seems like overkill. save some money and get better video card if possible (assuming this is a gaming build)

also maybe 2x4GB of RAM to take advantage of dual channel, unless you're planning to add 8 more gigs later.

What is this setup going to be used for.

In general:
Get 2x 4GB Ram for dual channel
That is a fairly expensive PSU for your components. If you got a high quality 450W PSU with that build you would be set.

Gaming:
Get an i3 and increase graphics performance

Productivity:
Keep what you have

Mostly gamin and some edit.

Yeah i am planing in the near future to upgrade another 8gb .

The i will go with ATX SilverStone SST-ST50F-ESB 500W will that be ok, and having to much W in psu can that damage PC ?

What would be the best GPU low-mid budget for this PC?

 

[gilbadon]

If you went with an i3 and bumping the GPU up to an R9 280 would show HUGE boosts in gaming performance.

The reason to lower the PSU is purely to save money. There is no reason to get something larger than you need that does not boost performance but at the same time, if you skimp, boom goes the computer.

Also ram is very unimportant when it comes to gaming. 8 GB is enough. Just get 2x4 GB IMO.

Also I do not know much about monitors. Maybe you should post it again as its own thread.
