Will everything work?

[jericko132]

Hello everyone, I not a big computer wiz. But, I managed to throw together a computer build. I know it may not be the best build out there. My budget is kinda tight I just want to get something and later add on to it. I just want to know if all of this will fit and tie together right. Intel Pentium G3220 3.0GHz Dual-Core Processor, Gigabyte GA-B85M-D2V Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard, Patriot Viper 3 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory, Hitachi Ultrastar 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive, Gigabyte GeForce GTX 750 1GB Video Card, Cougar Solution (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case, SeaSonic 350W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply.
I would like to know if im missing anything.

if you want to lower the cost you could swap out the gpu for a 750 ti but i wouldnt go lower than that for gaming.

also the cpu is an amazing thing but it must be overclocked to reach its full potential. its not supposed to be a hot chip so overclocking shouldnt be that tough or risky if you follow the right steps.

Just add a cooler master 212 evo to that for overclock. Using stock intel heatsink is stupid when overclocking, every chip is going to get way hotter when overclocked so always use a high performance cooler for any overclocking.

Why a Pentium and a 280x and a 250gb HDD it does not make sense at all soooo unbalanced go for i3 at least and why get a cooler for a system that is not a 'k' series CPU so the standard cooler will work fine

 

[sheag123]

actually this newly released pentium overclocked beats any i3, and in games in some instances comes close to i5 performance.
