Hi :)
I am building a new computer for gaming and everyday stuff. I have been researching for some weeks and came up with hardware that looks good in my eyes, but I would like to know what people with more experience thinks about my build and maybe change some of it out for something better.
My computer use:
I use a lot of time on the computer. It is mostly used for gaming, skype and other normal stuff, and maybe some Video Editing in the future. With the laptop I use now I can't play all the games I would like to play, like Battlefield 3, Minecraft, Crysis 2 and some others. I would like to play these games on Ultra settings and I would like the computer to last for some time before I do any changes. And I want to have the option to overclock.
So here is what I have found. Feel free to leave a comment on what you think. Is everything compatible? Is it too much? Should annything be changed?:
Intel i7 2600k (CPU)
ASUS Maximus IV Extreme-Z, Socket-1155 (MOBO)
MSI GeForce GTX 580 1536MB PhysX (GPU)
Corsair AX 850W (PSU)
NZXT Switch 810 Big Tower Hvit (Case)
Corsair 16GB DDR3 Vengeance LP 1600MHZ CL8 (RAM)
OCZ Vertex 3 Series 2.5" 120GB (SSD)
Noctua NH-D14 (CPU-Cooler)
Seagate Barracuda 1TB (HDD)
