Hi guys! My friend wanted me to build a pc for him and I was wondering what you guys think about this partslist http://pcpartpicker.com/user/brocklay/saved/3MWo.
pretty decent build actually. if i could make any recommendations, it would be to maybe bump up the mobo to the Asrock extreme 4. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157293
and maybe a better power supply? but i know the cx series is pretty popular. the EVGA SuperNOVA 650 80+ GOLD PSU is only $15 more (after rebate). but yeah. nice build =)
You realize the motherboard is on a different socket then the processor he selected...
i think you may have clicked the wrong link or something. he picked an i5-3570k, and the board i suggested to upgrade is the asrock extreme4 z77. both are 1155.
Thanks for the replies. I'm gonna show my friends the options you suggested and see what he wants to do.
