First Build!!

[The_GreatN00b]

Thanks for the advice so far!

I saw a video on youtube( Newegg TV: How To Build a Computer - Part 1 - Choosing Your Components - YouTube ) I can't remember which part its in but they talk about putting windows on to the SSD so it loads faster, wondering if I should do that for my build, or if I should just use the SSD for game files.

I took the parts you linked to and through them on my build:
Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor (BX80646I54670K) - PCPartPicker

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler (RR-212E-20PK-R1) - PCPartPicker

MSI Z87-G43 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (Z87-G43) - PCPartPicker

G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (F3-12800CL8D-8GBRM) - PCPartPicker

A-Data Premier Pro SP900 256GB 2.5" Solid State Disk (ASP900S3-256GM-C) - PCPartPicker

Western Digital Caviar Green 1.5TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (WD15EZRX) - PCPartPicker

EVGA GeForce GTX 780 3GB Video Card (03G-P4-2784-KR) - PCPartPicker

Azza CSAZ-1000 ATX Full Tower Case (CSAZ-1000) - PCPartPicker

Corsair Professional 650W 80 PLUS Gold Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply (CMPSU-650HX) - PCPartPicker

LG UH12NS30 Blu-Ray Reader, DVD/CD Writer (UH12NS30) - PCPartPicker

Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 (OEM) (32-bit) (FQC-04617) - PCPartPicker

Thanks for the help again!

the_greatnoob your post has appeared now...lol and it looks like its gonna be a sweet build. keep us posted with pics etc.....


just noticed the question on SSD's

You use the SSD as your OS drive, it will help certain games with load times, Skyrim etc but try to keep most of your programs,vids, music and games on the spinning drive (HDD)

You have forgot A HDD for storage.

change the cooler to a Hyper 212+ $29 plus $10rebate $19

or the newer version Hyper 212+ evo £39

(i wouldnt say the new version is worth double the price)

All looks good otherwise. I'll look at the monitor a little late.
