Answer» http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/zVcTZL is there any improvements to be made? Or is it pretty okay? I need some advice It all looks very good. Just ONE thing I wonder about. You are going with water cooling, which is a great idea, but the Intel processor does not require that unless you have some special reason for thinking your computer is going to become extremely hot. Are you using the computer isn't confined area where there's not enough ventilation available for air cooling? Also, why choose the Intel i5 instead of going for Intel i7? Just asking. If I could have my choice, I would rather have the Intel i7CPU. I'm not using liquid cooling, I didn't add it to my LIST, and I'm trying to keep a 1500$ budget, including peripherals and a MONITOR, that's the only reason. Or I would have gone with the i7 haha Sorry, I thought that was a water cooler. Yeah, going i7 can add $100 to the budget. BTW, this September Intel will release some more i5 and other CPUs using a little better specs. This might drive3 down the price a bit on the current ones. Here is the rumor: http://www.cpu-world.com/news_2013/2013062501_New_Intel_CPUs_to_launch_in_September.html Anyway, the i5 you SELECTED is very good. Hope it works good for you. Looks very good, the only thing I would take care with is that your CPU has a locked multiplier so you will not be able to overclock it, if you want the ability to overclock you would need the i5 4690k. (The k means that it is unlocked). If you do not want to overclock, stick with that CPU and consider getting a motherboard with an H97 chipset as this will save a bit money as it also doesn't allow you to overclock. You are also spending a lot of money on that motherboard, personally I would consider getting a cheaper one from the likes of Gigabyte or ASUS and put the money towards a better video card such as a GeForce 770, those ASUS Maximus boards are very nice but the money could be better spent elsewhere. |
