Just gonna repost this since not many saw it I think.
Update!
Since I last started out with my base design on the one site I have modified it to
THIS final build I have in mind.
Mainly looking for this to be an excellent gaming build for modern games. (Battlefield, Skyrim, DayZ, etc.)
- Color scheme I am going with is Black / Red and a little bit of Gold in there it seems.
- As for the monitor I already have an HDTV I plan to use and I have speakers / headphones.
- The OS will be Windows 8.1 that I plan on buying through my university.
Comments and
input from you guys is
always usually helpful so
please have at it!
Another list right here for convenience.
- CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
- MOBO: Asus H81M-D PLUS Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
- RAM: Team Vulcan 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
- SSD: Sandisk Ultra Plus 128GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
- HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
- GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 2GB WINDFORCE Video Card
- CASE: Corsair SPEC-01 RED ATX Mid Tower Case
- PSU: Corsair CX 600W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
- ODD: Samsung SH-224DB/BEBE DVD/CD Writer
- KEYBOARD/MOUSE: Cooler Master CM Storm Devastator Gaming Bundle Wired Gaming Keyboard w/Optical Mouse
And I am still planning on keeping this within my
~$700 budget since I'll be getting as many cyber Monday deals as possible.
EDIT: Should I go ahead and try to throw the
Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card in my build instead of the one I currently have? Will the rest of my build be able to handle that and will there be a significant difference? (Since VRAM seems to be getting more important with running today's games.)
