Topic: Build advice Posted: 20 Apr 2017 at 6:57pm |
Hi all. My old digital storm pic has lasted me about 6-7 years now. Blue screen of death, figured I'd get a new one than deal with upgrading since it's been so long. With this build anything I should change because it won't work or anywhere I can save some money you think??
Budget: 2-4K Expectations: Coming from an sli and overclocked pc that lasted a long time with no upgrades. Would like to get a rig that lasts and allows me to be hands off. One complaint I have with old set up was the noise. Would like to reduce noise as much as possible. Usage: Gaming and casual use. FPS and various other games. Special Needs: None really.

Hi Rborr14. Welcome to the forums.
What monitor resolution are you using ? That determines the graphics card needed. If you stay with sli then I would bump up the psu. Drop the 32gb ram 16gb, more than enough for gaming. I would also select the CD under Recovery options. Good to have if the drive dies. The rest looks good. Edited by bprat22 - 21 Apr 2017 at 3:08am |
