Hi everyone I have decided to build a gaming pc and I'm having trouble with a couple hardware questions. First I will tell you what hardware I'm planing on using.
CPU: Intel I7-4770K or I7-4790K
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VI Formula
Memory: G.SKILL Trident X 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 2400 or (4 x 4)?
Storage Primary: 1TB WD Black 7200 RPM
Storage Secondary: Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD (Not positive)
Graphics Card: Geforce GTX 780 Ti (Not sure what one)
Case: Corsair Carbide 540 Air
Power Supply: ?
I need some help deciding on a couple pieces of hardware.
1. Will the corsair H100i be a good water cooler for this case?
2. Im planing on using 16GB 2400 but I don't know if I should use 2x8 or 4x4. Does it have any pros/cons for performance?
3. Im planing on using a 256GB SSD for my os and games. The question is I don't know what brand/model is the most reliable?
4. I would like to run games max settings at 1440p, will one 780 Ti be enough or should I go 1080p?
5. And now we come to my main question what power supply to use. I would like to go 80 Plus Platinum/Gold but I don't know what wattage I should go with?
If you have better hardware options I would like to hear them. I would also like input on a good 780 Ti.
Any advice would be greatly accepted.
