Gaming PC high spec?

sonne · 6 Dec 2015 at 20:52

Looking at building a gaming rig for someone thinking of getting:

NZXT Phantom 820
i7 5930K
Corsair watercooler
2x MSI GTX 980 TI
MSI X99 Gaming motherboard
Corsair 1000W HX1000i psu
Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 16GB 2666Mhz ram
have hard drive and dvd drive

Mainly wants to play strategy games at 2560x1400 on ultra, which would last a few years.

Please say you have an SSD in all of that?

If not, put a 500gb or a 1tb one in and a big drive for media and games

1 GTX980ti would run stuff on ultra at that resolution.

Also, if determined to go SLI then save money and go for the 5920K - you don't need 40 PCI lanes.

5820k and m.2 SM951 drive is a must - 2100mb Reads. 4x speed of ssd
