Interested if anyone is able to change, suggest or improve on this build I've just made.
EVGA GeForce GTX 780Ti 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
£529.99
Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor
£245.99
EVGA SuperNova G2 850W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply
£109.99
Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87 Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard
£109.99
Corsair Carbide 540 High Airflow ATX Cube Case - Black
£129.95
Samsung 120GB SSD 840 EVO
£77.99
Avexir Venom Series 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz Dual Channel Green Light
£71.99
Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM
£43.99
LiteOn IHAS124-14 24x DVD±RW SATA ReWriter (Black)
£14.99
Total : £1,334.87
All parts are from OCUK.
I already have peripherals like a mouse, keyboard, OS and monitor so need to budget for this.
The purpose of this build is to play games at their fullest, modern titles such as BF4, Titanfall but also less demanding games such as WoW. Emulation is also a key consideration as I'll playing my old PS2/Gamecube titles using PCSX 2 and Dolphin.
-A few things to mention is that although my current display is 1080p I do intend to upgrade. Do you recommend 1080p at 120hz or jump to a 1440p monitor?
-I do intend to overclock although I haven't budgeted for it yet, I plan to purchase the Corsair Hydro H105 when funds are available. If you are able to include a decent cooler then I'm open to suggestions.
-I'm also really into colour coordination, if you are able to make the parts as cosmetically appealing as possible that would be a huge plus.
850W PSU as it leaves open the possibility of adding another GPU later down the road.
So what do you reckon guys, did I do a good job here?
