Processor: Intel i5 3570K @ 3.5 ghz (LGA 1155) RAM: 32 GB @ ~1066 mhz PSU: ~1000 watts (Gold, Silver or Bronze?) GPU: Geforce GTX 670 Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G45 Case: A MSI or a Antec case? --- End quote --- 32 gb wat. Go down to 8 or 16 and get faster RAM. Also, upgrade the processor with your extra RAM cash. |

You don't need loving 1000 watts for a 670 and an i5 Cases don't really matter, it's up to you And you might as well get a Z87 version motherboard instead of a Z77 |

BTW, I already have the RAM, not buying new RAM, and same with the CPU. And due to the scenario I'm in, I highly doubt I'll be able to upgrade either. I'll also look for a less powerful power supply and do a bit more motherboard research. |

My rig sucks for the time being. Dell Optiplex 330 Intel Core Duo 3.3 ghz 2 gigs of ram stock motherboard No graphics card I'm saving up some money to invest in some larger ram sticks and a graphics card. If any of you guys have any GPU suggestions my budget is around 100 to 130 dollars. Not looking for anything super fancy, just a decent card. Also I can't use any of these big GPUs that require their own power source. EDIT: I found this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121426 on ebay and I was wondering if any of you had any experience with it. |

Is it a good idea to replace the H100i's default fans with Be Quiet!'s Silent Wings 2 120mm PWM fans? I've done some research to compare the fans, and they seem a little too closely matched, even if Silent Wings pushes more air, it says "16.2 dBA" and does not provide a range like XX-YY, which makes me suspicious. http://www.bequiet.com/en/casefans/322 I want to go with them because I also want a black themed build, but if these fans do more harm than good, then I'd have to opt out. |
