Good evening gents, this is a list of components that I have selected for my first build.
CPU: i5-3570k
Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth Z77
GPU: ASUS Radeon HD 7970 DirectCU II
Ram: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 2x8GB (16GB) black low profile
Case: Corsair 600T White
Heatsink Cooler: Either a Noctua D14, Zalman 9900 Max, or Corsair H100i
SSD: Samsung 830 (120gb or 256gb)
HDD: WD Cavier Black (1TB)
PSU: Corsair HX-750 (Chosen this as I may have anotherr 7970 in the near future)
OS: Windows 7 Home 64bit
Others: BitPhoenix Spectre Pro (White LED) 120mm x2 or Yate Loon D12SL-12 (White LED) 120mm x2 depending on my Heatsink cooler. BitPhoenix or NZXT white extensions to color match my case, NZXT 200m light strips to light up my case.
Notice: I'm currently using a single Asus VE279Q in 1080p so I may get a 2nd one perhaps 6 months from now.
Feel free to offer any suggestions or if you see anything that is not compatible.
Keep in mind I'm located in Taiwan so prices may be differen't than the states or other countires.
So far the suggestions I got was to change the Sabertooth to a AsRock Extreme 4 and get i7-3770k instead but newegg reviews for the Ex4 has not been really stellar. The same could be said for the Sabertooth as well but Asus does seem to be more reliable though over all...?
Would be nice to finally upgrade from a 9 year old Acer PC lol :lol:
Thanks and regard,
Vel
