I would appreciate it if someone could provide some "critique" on a PC build I plan to purchase very soon.
A few things to keep in mind:
I have the OS already
I will be using my DVD drive and extra case fans from an old build.
I plan to add an additional matching 6950 later down the line
I already have the Asus monitor, the one in the wishlist will be my second (Planning on a 3rd, along with the 2nd 6950 for a 3x eyefinity setup, in the future)
What I will be using it for:
Gaming of all sorts
3D Rendering (Mainly Cinema 4D)
Other editors (Adobe Ps Ae Pr Ai)
Newegg Wishlist:
Newegg.com - Once You Know, You Newegg
Components (Same as above):
Case:
Cooler Master CM 690 II Advanced
Mobo:
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3
Graphics:
XFX Double D 6950 2GB
Processor:
AMD FX 8120
Cooling:
Zalman CNPS9900 MAX
Ram:
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3
Storage:
Crucial M4 128 GB Sata III SSD
Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB HDD
Power:
Rosewill Bronze Series 1000W
2nd Monitor:
ASUS VS248H-P 24" LED
A few questions:
Would I be better off with an Corsair H100, over the Zalman?
Is the power supply overkill? Even if I plan on the second 6950 down the line?
Thank You, to all who contribute! ^-^
