stuffs already ordered. the ram and psu came bundled with the mobo processor and case that i really wanted.. so i had to roll with that. but i did take your suggestion on the mobo and processor!

Case is a waste of money IMO. I would've doubled the memory, but that's just me; I run a lot of bullshit.

Lol, I just assumed PSUs were supposed to kick the bucket after a few years. Im currently running a 750W antec I think.

i prefer PSUs that dont shit out in a year or 2. right now ive got a corsair 750w(seasonic manufactures them) before that i went through 1 doa, and 1 dead within a week antecs on this system.

my last system had enermax PSU that ran continuously for over 5 years before dying. i never turn my computer off. i went through 2 more antecs in 2 years, but one of them was a refurb pos i bought on sale needing a PSU and only having 40 dollars to spend, so i dont count it.

the system before that ran a sparkle PSU for pretty much 5 years solid and with a full mobo/cpu/ram/vid swap about 2 years into its life.

you can be happy with PSUs dying, i dont have the money to replace the parts shitty PSUs take with them when they die violently. im done with antec personally.

on that note, fuck razer as well. fuck them up the collective ass.

joey, make my lil bro a computer for 600$ CDN.

ill attempt to assemble it for him and help him order it online.

GET AT ME BRO

after everything is said and done, spending about 1k. it comes with a couple free games too. (borderlands 2 and tribez ascend). spend more than my original budget, but after getting into it, i just decided to expand the budget. if i wanted to spend 700, 300 extra is not going to kill me. final thoughts, defrag/showtime/dan/sixten?

Here was the final combo I got from newegg. A lot of the same components that you ordered except the PSU is different and it doesn't come with a HD. Might have saved you a little money but looks like you already ordered your stuff. Hope the build works well for ya!

Everything looks solid. Might as well get 16gigs of ram tho. You can't get 12g if you want to run your system properly (dual channel mode)


And that toshiba hard drive blows dick. Go with Western Digital or seagate.

Hasn't Seagate been pretty piss poor over the past years? I go with WD and Samsung now.

they have, pretty much the only reliable HDDs out are solid state and WD.

Samsung = Seagate

Bahahahaha.

rehpyc wrote:Hasn't Seagate been pretty piss poor over the past years? I go with WD and Samsung now.

i just said seagate for choice. I use WD and it looks like they're one of the last good ones. And samsung = seagate like defrag said.


I only use WD blacks. I have a crucial c300 SSD for my programs/os drive and it's been rock solid for a year+. Same with my 2600k, best cpu purchase Ive ever made. Been running 24/7 @ 4.2ghz on stock cooling for almost ta year.

Looking at Joey's build made me revist hardware prices and damn SSD's have dropped so much since I bought..Goodamn

ya its been so long since i have looked at computer parts, and i just didnt really remember brands very well. i should have known to get a WD storage HD but oh well. so stoked for this to get here next saturday.

i want to pick up a new game or 2 to play on this thing. i am already getting a free copy of borderlands2 which looks incredible. anything else look cool? any suggestions?

Just back up the important stuff that you'd hate to lose. I've had a WD go down within a couple months. Could you return it and choose a new one? Or do they rape you on restock?

awww damn you got the 660ti with the short pcb

Oh man yeah, should have gotten the long pcb, you're fucked now.....

oh dont go and get your panties and in a bunch.

yes, i would agree that your system is probably 10x better than your previous rig, but its my nature to point out things that i see.

it's not the end of the world having the shorter pcb (pcb is the green board your graphics card is built on) so take it with a grain of salt.

while it is not my system, i just gave you the best and honest advice from my years of experience in the field.

you dont have to please me, the only person you have to please is yourself.

keep those "mother fucker" comments to yourself.

looks like a pretty solid first build.. and you shouldn't have overheating problems as long as you clean the dust out of your case every 3 to 6 months.. oh and keeping your case elevated also helps with air circulation and dust btw

goddamn i need a real job....

lol defrag, i was just being sarcastic there haha my bad for coming off like that. i appreciate your help throughout the thread.

needs a bigger cpu cooler and some oc'ing of the cpu ^_^

sean i did some turbo setting thing in my motherboard software so that it overclocks a little bit. but not much. i dont know how to properly do it myself so i just let it be. but i will probably find out later and do it eventually

I just built my first computer tonight. The scariest part was pressing that bar down to lock the processor into place, I thought that I was going to break it.

Cool wiring job bro

yea solid cable management fa sho

*fixed*

Hate to have you nerds look inside my case.

my handy work from a previous build:
