Hello,
Normally I build my systems. The last one I build was about 5 - 6 years ago. I work with video files and need lots of power for rendering. It is time to upgrade.
HP has a sale on HP ENVY 700-215xt for $709.
Specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64
4th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-4771 processor quad-core [3.5GHz, 8MB Shared Cache]
Intel HD Graphics [DVI-D]
8GB DDR3-1600MHz [1 DIMM ]
1TB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive
SuperMulti DVD Burner
15-in-1 Multi-slot Media Card Reader, 4 USB Ports (Front/Top), Audio [Front 2USB2.0, Top 2USB3.0]
Integrated Sound, Envy Audio; Beats Audio
HP USB keyboard and optical mouse
Wireless-N LAN card and Bluetooth®(1x1)
300W Power supply
I can add Blue Ray burner that I already have and maybe add a better video card.
Or I can try and build the machine. I would only need to get the CPU, main board and RAM.
I was going to go with the following:
MAINBOARD
GIGABYTE GA-H87-D3H LGA 1150 Intel H87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard GIGABYTE GA-H87-D3H LGA 1150 Intel H87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard - Newegg.com

What would be a good CPU cooler for that type of CPU?
What do you think?
