I am building a new comp soon, looking to build a high end gaming computer that will handle any game. I mainly want to play MW3 and first person shooters. My budget is $1400.00
My picks so far : CPU Intel i5 3550 Ivy bridge
Graphics card: EVGA 02G-P3-1568-KR GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP
Mother board: GIGABYTE GA-Z77-DS3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX . Im not set on this board, the main thing Im looking for is the Z77 chip set to go with the CPU.
Memory: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9Q-16GBRL I think I definitely want 16 gig.
Main drive: Crucial M4 CT256M4SSD2 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD
Thats what I have so far, I need suggestions for power supply, CPU cooler. I have a case in mind. My freinds tell me I should spend about the same amount on the CPU as the Gprahics, I dont know if that holds true. The main thing I want is good graphics,. I have a 24" monitor, I am shooting to play the games at top settings. I don't know what resolution you all play games at, I figure 1920x1080 should be more than enough, I don't see trying to play top end at 2650x1600. Any help is appreciated, its been like 9 years since I built my fist comp so this ones long overdue!!
