Hi all. I posted a while back about potentially moving my current set-up from my CM Storm Stryker case into a Parvum S2.0 case. I have decided to go completely new and do a full new build, but need some help/advice with a couple of parts.
I only use the PC for gaming, web browsing and watching films/Sky go. I already have monitor (it's a LG Flatron E2742 - plan to upgrade it at Christmas, but will do for now), o/s windows 7 which I am okay with at the moment and keyboard & mouse.
The parts I have decided on:
YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA GeForce GTX 970 FTW ACX 2.0 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (04G-P4-2978-KR) £319.99
1 x Intel Core i7-4790K 4.00GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £251.99
1 x Asus Maximus VII Gene Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 Micro ATX Motherboard £148.99
1 x Parvum Systems S2.0 MicroATX Case - Black with Red £139.99
1 x Kingston HyperX 16GB (2x8GB) PC3-17100C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black/Red (HX21C11BRK2/16-OC) £137.99
1 x Be Quiet Power Zone 850W '80 Plus Bronze' Fully Modular Power Supply £119.99
1 x Corsair Force GT 120GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive (CSSD-F120GBGT-BK) £84.98
Total : £1,213.52 (includes shipping : £8.00).
I already have a 500gb HD in my current system and a DVD drive that I plan to re-use.
However a few things I am unsure on:
Again, at Christmas I want to add a second GPU. Will it be okay with that motherboard and in the case?
I want it to be as quiet as possible (my current system is far too loud), is that the best PSU for being quiet, and will it handle a 2nd GPU okay?
And, not sure how to cool the CPU. Again with respect to the noise levels, I want as quiet as possible, is something like the H110/105 going to be okay, or better going for a really good air cooler?
Also fans, not sure what will be needed/good for sound and cooling.
Think thats it, any changes you would make, feel free to suggest. Budget wise no more than £1300 really (or thereabouts).
Thanks.
