Hi Guys,
I want to make a new Media PC out of a few spare parts I got and other parts I'll buy over this Year.
what I got laying around:
- Sabertooth P67
- Sabertooth z77
- Intel Core i5-2500K (never OCed)
- Noctua NH-DH14
- EVGA GTX 580 3GB
- be quiet P9 Pro 850Watt
- 16GB A-Data ram
- 120GB Samsung 840 Evo
- A freaking lot of Bitfenix fans (9x 120mm Spectre, 3x Spectre Pro, 1x140mm Spectre Pro, 2x 230mm spectre, 2x 230mm spectre pro) All of them are shit
Now to the project, the setup I have in mind:
- NZXT H440
- SAbertooth z77
- i5 2500k
- Dark Rock Pro 3 (I like the color)
- 1x 140mm Silent Wings 2 (rear)
- 3x 120mm Silent Wings 2 (top)
- 1x SSD 120GB Samsung 840 Evo
- 4x 4TB WD [Raid 1] (don't know about the color, could you recommend something for the setup?)
- some cheap 4k Monitor (I'll buy this one at the end of the Year so no point in thinking about it now)
- Soundcard (Could you recommend one? nothing fancy and without front panel. I have a 2.1 soundsystem right now but I might upgrade in the future)
- Asus PCE-AC68 (WiFi Card)
- NZXT Shine 3 (fits the Case)
- EVGA GTX580 3GB (guess I'll throw it in...)
- should I use the P9 Pro 850 or get a newer one a bit smaller?
It's just a bit sad that there is no front bay in the system. But I guess I'll mod a slim Blu Ray drive somewhere. I'll choose where as soon as I have the Case.
Got any other advice?
Have a tek day,
Lighto
