So I was wondering if this is a good build. I have about a month to decide so please drop some suggestions. If you could come up with a buiild at this price that would be great.
But how does this look? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/zK5t
If you can go for a 3570k for gaming but if its gaming/video editing get a 8350
like hardcore video editing? or just minor. ill only be editing 5-10 min. vids.
In that case the 3570k is the best option because it has intel quick sync and is priced more competitivley and is great in video editing and gaming
Alright cool, ill add the 3570k to my build.
Anyone else have thoughts?
like everyone else said, go for the 3570k, the rest of your build is right on. good cooling with the Hyper 212, enough RAM, and a 1TB drive. if i were you, i would try to run at least a 60 GB SSD, just for the OS. you will notice the difference.
I really cant afford to go over any. Maybe later. Can i uninstall Windows off of my computer and reinstall it onto my future ssd?
with an SSD youl only notice the difference in loading times and file moving, for gaming it has a relatively low impact.
Okay, well maybe when i have some extra money.
I used a program called Acronis to clone my OS from one drive to my current SSD. Worked perfectly. I'm sure if you look around, you will find a free copy some where on the net.
Due to some budget cuts (forgot i needed Windows), I have to lower my budget, but is there a way to pirate Windows? That would be sweet because then I could jump back up to my 660ti :P
Any ideas?
buy windows 8. i think its $40 if you buy the upgrade, run 64 bit. download the image, and burn it on a DVD.
i bought the actual DVD disc for $50 at best buy lol.
dont pirate it
ok google "microsoft gives out windows 8 for free" and use that to get windows 8 but it wasant me lol
