Hi, so this is my first post in this forum after I've been reading around here for about a week. Anyway I'm currently in the process of building a gaming PC; so far this is my spec.
Case
InWIN BLACK GR-1 GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU)
Intel® Core™i5 Quad Core Processor i5-4670 (3.4GHz) 6MB Cache
Motherboard
ASUS® Z87M-PLUS: m-ATX, USB3.0, SATA 6.0, XFIRE
Memory (RAM)
8GB KINGSTON DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz (1 x 8GB)
Graphics Card
NONE, I ALREADY HAVE A GRAPHICS CARD
Memory - 1st Hard Disk
1TB WD CAVIAR BLACK WD1002FAEX, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64MB CACHE (7200rpm)
1st DVD/BLU-RAY Drive
24x DUAL LAYER DVD WRITER ±R/±RW/RAM
Power Supply
650W FSP RAIDER SERIES RA-650 80 PLUS® BRONZE (£59)
Processor Cooling
Super Quiet 22dBA Triple Copper Heatpipe Intel CPU Cooler (£19)
Sound Card
ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)
Network Facilities
10/100/1000 GIGABIT LAN PORT - AS STANDARD ON ALL PCs
USB Options
MIN. 2 x USB 3.0 & 4 x USB 2.0 PORTS @ BACK PANEL + MIN. 2 FRONT PORTS
Power Cable
1 x 2 Metre UK Power Cable (Kettle Lead)
Operating System
Genuine Windows 8 64 Bit - inc DVD & Licence (£79)
Office Software
FREE 30 Day Trial of Microsoft® Office® 365
Anti-Virus
BULLGUARD INTERNET SECURITY - FREE 90 DAY TRIAL
Notice how I didn't chose to get a Graphics Card with this, this is because I want to buy one from OCUK because I feel they offer the better cards.
My budget for the card is about £250 take or minus £20, so I've narrowed it down to these...
Gigabyte ATi Radeon HD 7950 Windforce
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 670 Windorce
MSI GeForce GTX 670 OC Twin Frozr
MSI HD 7950 Vapor-X OC 3GB
MSI GeForce GTX 660ti Power Edition.
Which one of these will go best with my build so far? I'm looking to play all the latest games on ultra and future games like BF4 and Rome 2. All comments are appreciated or if you think I should change anything in the build that would be appreciated. So far I'm leaning towards the GTX 670.
