I totally EDITED this build.I went with some different parts.I already bought a dvd burner,I plan on buying the rest within the next 3weeks.Anything I should change or add.Or is there a problem with these components? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128358 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146047 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102770 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139005 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145197 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136073 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009145 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116488
Despite what it may look like, those Xclio cases are actually pretty poor for cooling, as the fans aren't balanced correctly. This is a much better case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146047 The motherboard looks fine, I've no personal experience of these boards but you should be alright. The CPU is also fine. PSU is absolute overkill, you only need this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139003 Hard disk, memory and OS are all decent choices. Graphics card is pretty poor, Powercolor's own cards are pretty dire, get this one instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121272 That's about it really. You're OK with your old monitor, keyboard and mouse?
Thank you for reply.I did change the the first 2 items you suggested.But that graphic card you linked,I wasn't happy with the reviews.So i decided to go for the this one instead. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129113 one thing i was concerned about with that NZXT case,I am not sure if the board I choose will have enough connectors for all the fans.please forgive my newbie terms I am new to PC build thanks again for your response.
So you saw one bad review of the Asus card and went for the inferior product instead, based on that. Well, your choice I suppose, but I didn't make that recommendation for nothing.
I know its weird huh? I just seen so many people digging on the 4870.I just didnt like the price but o well why not.
OK I think this is my final adjustment? any thoughts? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131299 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146047 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102797 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227289 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136218 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827106057 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139005
The HD4850 and HD4870 are the same card in essence, but the 4870 is about 20% faster, and uses more power. You aren't likely to notice much of a difference between the two unless you use a 24" monitor or larger. Everything in that list is fine except the memory, which often has issues running at its rated speed, or even below it. This is the stuff I use: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145197 After rebates it's almost the same price, and it's proven stable, solid, high speed RAM.
I went with some stuff,you said sammorris.Any other suggestions.I went with Gigabyte instead of the asus.
