Hey guys a client of mine wants a gaming pc and peripherils with it the pc has to be around 1500 i have a list of parts some are not concrete any suggestions or changes.
Case: Antec eleven hundred
2 green sickle flow case fans 120 mm
logysis green case led's
CPU: intel 2700k or 3770k
Mobo: Asus maximus v gene or asrock z77 professional fata1ty
well the client wants thhe 16 gigs and an intel provessor clients are usually very picky about things like that. And where would you fit a 240 mm rad in that case
In that case, your build looks alright, however, you should try and see if you can squeeze an ssd and/or some 1866 memory in there somewhere. I assume the client will not be persuaded that 16gb is useless for gaming, and that he would be better off with 8gb of higher quality RAM.
A note on the motherboards, I have heard that the Asus maximus v genes are great when they work, but have a relatively high rate of defects. I would go with the asrock if I were you.the reason I suggested the Antec eleven hundred is that you had proposed it in your post. It will not accept a 240mm rad.I would select the 2700k CPU and use the extra few bucks elsewhere.You should probably get a few more opinions before buying these parts, I have probably forgotten somthing important.
damn clients spenh my time putting together a rig do the consult then they take what I did and decide to do it by them selves depriving me of the joy of building a computer and my pay.
