Hey guys. Here is my build:
1 x Cooler Master - CM 690 II Advanced Nvidia Edition Mid Tower
1 x AMD - Phenomâ„¢ II X4 965 Black Edition 3.4GHz w/ 8MB Cache (Retail Box, Socket AM3)
1 x Cooler Master - Hyper 212 Plus CPU Cooler
1 x Arctic Cooling - MX-3 Premium Thermal Compound, 4g
1 x Gigabyte - GA-P67A-UD3-B3 w/ Dual DDR3 2133, 7.1 Audio, Gigabit Lan, CrossFireX
1 x Corsair - Dominator DHX+ 6GB DDR3 1600MHz CL8 Triple Channel Kit (3 x 2GB)
1 x Corsair - Dominator Airflow Fan for High Performance Memory Modules
1 x Seagate - 500GB Barracuda 7200.12 SATA III w/ 16MB Cache
1 x MSI - N550GTX-Ti Cyclone II OC GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1GB PCI-E w/ Dual DVI, HDMI
1 x Antec - EarthWatts EA 650W Power Supply w/ Triple +12V
A few notes:
-I plan to game
-Choose x4 965 to save money over i5-2500k
-Plan to do some light over clocking in the future
How does this look? Will it be a good gaming system for the next 3-4 years? Do I need the extra cooling I added?
Any input would be appreciated!
