Computer build for gaming

I dont think the this power supply is compatible with am3+ motherboards got any other suggestions? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341041

A power supply is usually universal, it isnt usually only compatible with x thing and not y thing. It just delivers power. I dont trust OCZ, go Corsair, Seasonic, or XFX

Ok thanks, and know any suggestions for a good wireless card and do you know how they are?

Consider just getting a motherboard with wifi. Otherwise just use a PCI slot card, they're generally much better than various USB dongles.

Ok thanks

Not really considering with AMD you can often upgrade your CPU while using the same motherboard, and people still game on Althon 64 X2 systems.

Well, how well does it perform, also at what resolution, you can argue but to a certain point only.

I think for the price I would totally go for a 7950 video card over the nvidia 660, I run the Xfx 1050w Power supply purchased in may 2012 and have had zero problems with it, for you that would probably be overkill I'm just saying they are a solid products. either way you go or which company power supply you go with I would get one that is crossfire/sli ready like you have listed, just so in the future you dont have to replace if you decide to go with mulit gpu's. finally never go cheap on your power supplies alot of companies (mostly the cheaper psu's) will state that psu is 750watts but you really may only getting 500watts out of it. Believe me you get what you pay for good luck on your build bro

Hey bud here is a budget gaming rig guide I found in my Pcgamer fall 2012 issue, by all means im not telling you what to buy but this gives you a nice idea what you can get for around $1500 and actually cheaper then that with prices dropping.

Case - anything around $100 (they use the nzxt phantom 410 case)
Cpu - intel i7-3770k (If you just plan on gaming and such I would go with the i5-3570k and save $100)
Mobo - MSI Z77a-GD65 (Great Mobo I used on my build myself, will automatically OC a i5-3570k to 4.2ghz from stock with OC genie)
Ram- Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 (I use the G.skill Sniper ram you have listed and it is great.)
Graphics - MSI HD7950 (Can go with any brand)
SSD- (Boot Drive)OCZ Vetex 4 128gb Boot Drive (I would go with a Samsung or crucial M4)
HDD - (Storage drive) 1GB WD Caviar Black
CPU - Cooler - Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO
PSU - Corsair TX650 (This you want upgrade to alittle more watts if you plan on Crossfire or SLI)
OS - Window 7 Home (Which ever you perfer)

With all that they have a total price of $1471 which I think you could get alot cheaper with prices falling on parts. Have fun!

Not completely though because Intel change their socket types every few years so if you want to upgrade you will probably end up spending a lot more money.

we got this all figured out. Our suggestions are basically the same

Good thing I live near a MicroCenter. I7-3770K is 100 dollars less than what Newegg has it for.

Heres what I have now for the computer so please dont edit this im kinda of just referencing this site so I can see which site is cheaper to get the items from... http://pcpartpicker.com/p/I7lE it might work if not just tell me then I will post a different link...

Plus I am more than welcome to change some of the parts on that list!

Do this, you'll thank me for it.

Oh and, read this and please don't support the Egg:

Buy stuff from Amazon and other places instead, the Egg are a bunch of complete a. holes.

There is nothing wrong with OEM versions and you will need to replace enough parts for windows to think that you switched to a new computer to invalidate your copy.

OEM is the way to go.... as hellokitty said. As for your part builder johnny, I disagree a lot. Why spend 58 bucks on a CPU cooler when the Hyper 212 for 35 bucks will do the same thing for less. Also, Asrock boards are garbage in my opinion (went through a ton in the past), you can get a $135 ASUS mobo instead. Also, Corsair SSDs arent the best, they fail a lot (had a few in the past, no chance against my Samsungs and OCZs). Finally, only go for Corsair, Seasonic and maybe XFX for PSUs (I have tried others in the past, havent lasted more than 1 year). Also, he can get a Cooler master HAF 922 for 89 bucks. Finally, the GPU is personally preference (nVidia vs AMD).

Surely this is all personal preference? I have never had a problem with Newegg. I've spent around 10k on their site and each purchase has been fine. Good advice for OP would be going to who has the best deals for the products you need.

I guess I should try them out now, but for that price point as johnny was saying, you might as well go for ASUS
