I'm building my first PC and I'm going all in in terms of parts as I want it to play amy game I can throw at it as well as a bit of editing. I've watched hundreds of videos so I should know what I'm doing but I would appreciate any tips or suggestions for parts and the build itself.
Here are my current parts:
Case: Rosewill Thor V2 - already purchased
Mobo: Asus p9x79 Pro
CPU: Intel Core i7 3820
CPU Cooler: Intel Liquid Cooler - already purchased
RAM: Kingston Hyper X, 4 times 4gb sticks
SSD: Kingston Hyper X 120 gb - already purchased
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB - already purchased
PSU: Thermaltake Tough Power Grand 850 watt - already purchased
GPU: msi GTX 670 oc edition
Monitor: Asus 23.6in monitor - already purchased
Optical Drive: whatever has the best reviews on newegg
Networking: D-Link Powerline Adapter
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit
Sound Card: what do you guys think of integrated sound for gaming? if you think it sucks there is a fairly nice Asus card on newegg that's $25
If I'm forgetting anything please mention it. Aside from anything that I may have forgotten that's my planned system. I've ordered everything from newegg so far and I plan on doing that for the rest of the parts. I plan on playing mostly FPS's like bf3, medal of honor warfighter, planetside 2, DayZ, Crysis 2 and 3, Battlefield Bad Company 2, COD black ops 1 and 2, as well as minecraft which is an oddly demanding game. Most of these I will be recording with FRAPS and editing to post on YouTube.
Also I'm having the hardest time finding a good desk as most that are carried by large retailers like Staples and Office Depot aren't big enough to support massive gaming PC's. And craigs list hasn't turned up anything good either. So if you have a desk that you like and think support a full tower case please share where you got it and what it's called. It would be much appreciated.
