What's your opinion on this GAMING build? :)

[Romeru]

Another question.. Yet again.

Good evening folks, i'm done picking parts for a computer to my friend, he'll be buying the components soon. However...

I need your expertise here! What's your opnion on my choosen hardware? Are there any bottlenecks or something that is just overall better.

Prices varies all over the world but if you find anything that would have an impact on performance, please let me know!

get a caviar blue instead. the 7200rpm helps a lot on system drives.

I change some pc components , and you may think about it.
1) HDD like laviniu said get the 7200rpm for the OS, 5400rpm is slower and for storage.
2) RAM, cheaper and faster, G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866
3) Cooler, the one you get is the 92mm size, this one is same price but it is 120mm that will give you better performance. the case can support up to 163mm / 6.4 inch height CPU cooler. http://www.coolermaster.com/product/Detail/case/mid-tower/elite-334-nvidia-edition.html
4) Cheaper, and it is good but is not the best. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/EVGA/600B/1.html

what is the budget?

 

[Romeru]

For the computer only: around 900$

I might switch out the Hard drive, the rest of the stuff will add up to much money.

Thanks for your opinions!

What is this black magic you're using? So cheap.. Yet so powerful. However prices are different compared to the USA as i'm living in Sweden right now, and here it'd be +200$ if not more.

That's why i just asked for minor improvements xD.
