Hi everyone,
I am just a few days from starting to order my components for my first build. I think I asked this in my other thread when trying to choose components, but I want to ask in more detail now.
First, my tentative list of components:
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($319.99 @ Newegg)
CPU Cooler: Phanteks PH-TC14PE_BK 78.1 CFM CPU Cooler ($79.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($170.17 @ NCIX US)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($84.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" Solid State Disk ($154.95 @ Adorama)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($148.98 @ OutletPC)
Video Card: MSI GeForce GTX 780 3GB Video Card ($519.99 @ Amazon)
Case: Cooler Master SGC-5000-KWN1 ATX Full Tower Case ($144.99 @ Microcenter)
Power Supply: Silverstone Strider Gold S 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($154.98 @ SuperBiiz)
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer ($16.99 @ Newegg)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (OEM) (64-bit) ($175.99 @ B&H)
I know, I changed components from the other thread of mine, but I just needed a base to start from. Anyway, my question is, what type of PSU should I look for? I know I want an 850W, but as far as form factor/type such as ATX, ATX12V, ESP, etc. I dont know whats what. What type is compatible with the motherboard I chose?
Will the PSU I have listed above be compatible with my motherboard?
I have read that some people have trouble with certain PSUs and my chosen motherboard.
Thank you.
