Hello!
In the process of picking parts for a new build. Looking to build a decent rig that will (most importantly) stand the test of time. I'll be using it for everything from word processing, music production, HD video editing and maybe some gaming somewhere down the road.
My first question relates to the PSU. Basically I'm wanting to cover my back without going over the top. Thins to consider: I will not be buying a graphics card straight away but will most likely go for a mid-high end card somewhere in the future, so I'm taking this into consideration.
The PSU I'm looking at is the EVGA Supernova 650W G1 Gold Modular PSU. Hoping this will be reliable and powerful enough.
The rest of the components will be (please give me tips if the set-up isn't ideal, I'm new to this
):
- Intel Core i7 4790K - 4+4 Cores @ 4Ghz (Turbo 4.4Ghz) + 8MB CACHE
- ASUS Z97-K - USB2.0, USB3.0, SATA6 + XFIRE
- 16GB DDR3 2133Mhz - KINGSTON Hyper-X Predator
- Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 2 CPU Cooler - Ultra Quiet Option
- Samsung 840 EVO 250GB
- Seagate 1TB 3.5 inch 7200RPM 64MB Cache SATA3
these aren't set in stone.
Might also add HDD's too if needed. And will probably have 4 x 120mm fans going.
So what ya think?
Thanks in advance.
