Hey guys I am new to building PC's and components but know alot about computing.
This build is going to be my first ever build after using a hand me down from my brother and I would like some help on getting the best performance out of it, and also like some help with component compatibility. So ill start.
Corsair HX Gold Series 850W Modular ATX - PSU
ASUS Crosshair V Formula AM3+,ATX - Motherboard
AMD Vishera FX-8350 4.0GHz AM3+ Black Ed - CPU
ASUS AMD Radeon HD 7970 DirectCU II - GPU
Corsair Hydro Series H100i - CPU Cooler
2TB Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm - HDD
120GB Kingston HyperX Series - SSD
Kingston HyperX Predator 8Gb (2x4Gb) DDR3 2133MHz - RAM
Generic DVD Drive
I would like some help on compatibility, for instance I've been reading up that the CPU only allows a max Memory of 1866 (does this matter ?) and the Motherboard says it takes 2133MHz(O.C) Memory. Does this mean I have to overlock my board in order for it to take my memory.
I really appreciate the help that you can give me :)
TTFN
