Hey guys, big fan of the forum, been following it for a while but unable to contribute because im learning .
Pay day has come, and SC2 is on the way. So a good time to build.
I'm in NZ so i cant use new egg, buy a good site for it over here is PriceSpy - The new generation of price comparisons which compares shops prices and displays the lowest. This list comes to ~1400 US. New egg links would be fine though, as long as they aren't unique specials or combo's.
CPU - Intel Core i5 750 2.66GHz Socket 1156 Box
MOBO - Asus P7P55D-E
GPU - Gigabyte Radeon HD5850 DDR5 HDMI DisplayPort Dual-DVI 1GB
RAM - G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3 PC12800/1600MHz CL9 2x2GB
PSU - Corsair CMPSU-650TX 650W
Case - CM Storm Scout (Black)
Alternative Cooler Master HAF 922 Mini (Black)
HD - Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS 32MB 1TB
DVD - Lite-On iHAS324
Periphery :
Keyboard - Logitech Gaming Keyboard G110 (EN)
Mouse - CM Storm Sentinel Advance Gaming Mouse
Speakers - Logitech LS21
I'd really appreciate any advice , specially if someone spots a incompatibility or bad mix.
Q's
#1 Is 650W sufficient? It's been suggested if i want to upgrade in a couple of years that i should up the power.
#2 I'd like to get the CM scout case, but am unsure if it matches up to the CM HAF.
