Hello,
I've decided recently that I'm going to build a computer, with the intent on using it for gaming and general tasks. I've look on the internet for the past week and I think I've finally found all the parts I'm going to use and all the parts fit within my £600 (About $970) budget, but since I'm completely new to this sort of thing, I was just wondering if someone could check my parts before I were to order them, so I don't spend money on something that isn't compatible with the rest of my computer!
Case + PSU:
Coolermaster Centurion 5 II SPECIAL EDITION with Red Interior - With Coolermaster 650W GX PSU
Motherboard:
Asus M4A87TD/USB3 870 Socket AM3 8 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard
CPU:
AMD Phenom II X4 970 Black Edition 125 Watt Socket AM3 3.5GHz 6MB L3 Cache
Memory:
Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz Memory Module CL9 1.5V
GPU:
XFX HD 6870 Black Edition 1GB DDR5 Dual DVI HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Graphics Card
HDD:
Samsung HD103SJ Spinpoint F3 1TB Hard Drive SATAII 7200rpm 32MB Cache
Optical Drive:
Sony Optiarc AD-5260S 24x DVD±RW & DL SATA Optical Drive - OEM Black
CPU Cooler:
Will I need one of these?
OS:
Windows 7 Home Premium
Sorry for any mistakes I've made and thanks in advance!
