I'm on sort of a low budget, and I'm planning on building a sub-1500 dollar gaming PC in about a month or so. I plan on playing a few online FPS games like BFBC2, BF3, BF4, and Titanfall on max settings and I also plan on playing Skyrim with 2K textures, a couple hundred fun mods, and project ENB. Here are the parts that I'm planning on using:
CPU: i5 3570k
CPU cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77-UD3H
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8 GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 memory
Hard drive: WD BLK 2 TB 3.5” 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive
SSD: A-Data Premier Pro SP600 128 GB 2.5” SSD
GPU: Asus Geforce GTX 770 2 GB
Case: Cooler Master HAF XB EVO ATX Desktop Case
Power Supply: Corsair Enthusiast 650W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
OS: Windows 8.1 (OEM) 64-bit
Keyboard: Corsair Raptor LK1
Mouse: (Not needed); I have one already
Monitor: (Not needed); I have one already
Wireless adapter: I'm using ethernet, so no need
I checked with a few sources and found that there shouldn't be any compatibility issues, but I was wondering what you guys think about this build. Is it good for my needs, or would different parts suit me better? If so, which ones? Thanks.
To clarify, I am planning on overclocking the 3570k.
