Advice on my PC Build (Living in thailand so prices might be a little different)

so i am living here in thailand. And i am going to be building a PC soon,and i was hoping if you guys thought this build would be worth it. it totaled to $ 1,220

CPU: Intel 3570k

Motherboard: Asrock Z77 Extreme 4

CPU Cooler: Hyper 212 Evo

GPU: ASUS DC HD 7770

Thermaltake TR2 700 watt 80+ bronze

DVD Drive: LG GH24NS 24x

Monitor: AOC 23 inch 1920X1080 60hz moniter

RAM: G.SKILL RIPJAWS

HDD: WD 1tb Caviar Green Drive

Case: Cooler Master K350 Midtower Case

Case Fans: 3 120mm Bitfenix Spectre Fans

OS: Windows 7

Cooler Master Thermal Grease

Hows does that Sound

If this is a gaming rig then the GPU is pretty underpowered compared ot the cpu, also the PSU is both overkill and trash components.

yeah i just got a entry level GPu. when i save a bit more i will get a better GPU. But which of the components are trash i need more details buddy. 

 

AMD CPU's are much cheaper as the Intel's. Try to find an AMD CPU which has the same specs as the I5 3570k. The PSU (Power Supply Unit) has 700w. You won't need that many. go to pcpartpicker.com. Fill in your components and it tells you howmuch Watts you need. I'll go for the HD7870 Dual-X by Sapphire. This is just the best GPU in the price range for $200. your case fans are expensive ($7) You can have fine ones for ($4). Mabye you can get what cheaper RAM. For example Corsair Vengeance series but that's your choise. But for the rest it looks fine. Oh and if you're going for the AMD CPU make sure it's MOBO (motherboard) compatible

Hope this helped a bit!

thanks

If you have questions just ask me buddy! :D

How is the weather in Thailand? Sir that power supply is quite massive for your system, even if you end up purchasing a HD7950 for example a quality 500-550w power supply will do the job well. Can you look on the online retailer you are buying from for 500-550w power supplies and post their names here and prices? We can help you pick one that works for your system while giving you leg room to grow.

The G.Skill ram might run into clearence issues with the 212 EVO, you  will most likely have to play with the heatsink fan to get it to clear that ram. It is not a big deal but be ready to do some adjustment. Also what speed is the ram you are choosing?

The caviar green series is not really a OS type of hard drive, even though it will run perfectly fine the speeds will be not very good. May i recomend a blue series or black series? Seagate barracuda is also a bargain right now and they offer pretty decent drives and speed.

No need for coolermaster thermal paste, the 212 EVO will bring a tube of it already included. I love the HD7770 but buying a card twice does not sound to appealing, have you considered gaming with the on-cpu gpu? It could save you the money of the HD7770 and put you that much closer to a proper graphics card sooner.

the current website i am choosing from is a really reliable website from some danish guys its called www.invadeit.co.th

the prices are in baht sorry about that. the exchange rate is 34 baht per dollar

i am aiming for a price range of 1200 to 1300 dollars including the 64 bit SP1 windows 7 and the 1920x1080 AOC 23 inch moniter

Here is a decent power supply judging by the specs: http://www.invadeit.co.th/product/power-supplies/cooler-master/gx-550w-power-supply-80-plus-rs-550-acaa-e3-p002931/

Any chance you can call them and ask how much the Corsair Cx600 goes for? It may be similar price or even cheaper then this GX550.

ill do that thanks alot man.

I ment the PSU is bad, not a quality built PSU.
