Lemons Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) - Any mobo is going to have a decent onboard ethernet/sound card, so your basically throwing money away there. - The 140mm fan is too big for the cases 120mm fan slots, get a 120mm fan. - Unless you watch DVDs you prob don't need the DVD Drive, use a USB Drive for installation. - The Hyper EVO 212 CPU Cooler is probably unneeded unless your going to be folding, can use the stock CPU Cooler or get a H80/premade watercooling loop if anything. Also be wary that this thing is HUGE, I have one and there is about 2mm of space between the side of my case and this thing in a mid-size tower. Since that case is 200mm wide and the cooler is 160mm tall, with the space for the mobo tray and risers there *should* be enough room, maybe. - Get 2 sticks of ram. Dual-channel ram (DDR and up) work best on 2 sticks of ram, as they can allow simultaneous read/writes instead of waiting on either operation. Otherwise your ram is gonna act like garbage, and 8GB is small these days :p - Consider a SSD instead of a HDD. Unless you plan on torrenting everything, you prob don't need this much room :p SSD will help your load times and make the computer feel faster. Other than that, don't see any problems. The GPU/CPU are good picks, nice power for the value. Good PSU with 80+ Gold, modular is nice. Built in wifi is nice as well :p Edited May 9, 2016 by Lemons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hero of Time Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 get 16gb ram, ram doesnt cost anything these days, it's basically free that would become the best computer in iran, if you were to buy it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Botre Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 2x4GB is better but the difference is barely anything ... ^^ There's another big advantag: if you have 2 and 1 of them goes bad then your machine doesn't become useless / you aren't forced into buying RAM immediately. Whereas if you only have 1, well... RIP :p 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
