So i'm almost done putting my first (well actually second) but FIRST gaming rig together, the first was just random parts i had available and that was just to run starcraft!
Anyway, on to the topic at hand.
The build in question is here : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/xGHXNG
Partlist if you don't want to go through the link is...
Motherboard: Asus Maximus VII Hero
Processor: Intel i7 4790k
GPU: Asus strix GTX970 4gb in SLI (still open to question as I do have a temp card to use before i upgrade to these, which is a really REALLY small gtx 620 2gb.)
RAM: 16gb 1866mhz Gskill sniper series ram (i read in a few places that any higher voltage over 1.5v would die out quicker??)
HDD: 2 1tb WD drives, probably swapping these into backup drives as I already have a 2tb drive to use
SSD: gonna pick up a 120gb ssd later for booting OS etc.
PSU: 750w EVGA Supernova G2 80+Gold
Case: Inwin GR-One Black
Other: standard blu-ray rw drive, sidewinder x4 keyboard (I won it from a ghosts tourny so luckily didn't need to buy one, maybe upgrade later., mouse is a etekcity Scroll X1 (surprisingly good, would recommend!)
Monitors: Getting a 27'' IPS as I"m a graphic designer, and possibly a 120-144hz for a gaming screen as I also plan to stream with this build. Sometimes using the IPS for setting up my streaming programs and the other monitor to actually play games on while streaming (sometimes console games)
So, the whole point of this, is just to ask what everyone thinks!
Obviously there is a budget for this build, but it's spread over a wide range so I'm able to get 1-2 parts a month sometimes. But, nonetheless It will be finished in a month or two now as I have the processor, case, mobo, psu, ram, and hdd out of the way, in other words the system is operational (well it will be once everything gets here).
Will of course post pictures when they are here! I'm also doing a YT video during build and when i upgrade the build with the new gfx card etc.
So, what do you think?!
