Ordered the ram and psu from the itwares , but after placing the order they contacted me to inform that the psu was out of stock
and also that there were not expecting a new shipment. they also offered to replace it with either a gs 800 or a cooler master gx 750.
so i cancelled the order for...
i wont be going for vengeance modules but will get this instead G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) PC RAM (F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL) - G.Skill: Flipkart.com
still looking for noctura (will probably buy the cpu cooler last depending on availability)
still to decide on gpu...
i was thinking...
my first preference would be the D14 or the NHU12P.
but if not available ( which up until now is the case) im torn between the A70 & the Hyper 212 EVO (push pull ).
So among the three which would be the best performing.
sapphire 7970 oc
Asus 7970 dc2
Asus 7970 matrix
i am thinking about getting this card instead of the sapphire 7970 oc
Theitdepot - Asus Radeon HD7970 3GB DDR5 ATI PCI E Graphics Card (HD7970-DC2T-3GD5)
wont the mvg be too cramped for a cf/sli setup..
would the extra performane gain be a tradeoff for stuttering and scaling issues. i chose to go with a single gpu setup to avoid these but with a current generation cf/sli setup there are no major problems i would go for a multi gpu setup.
looks like the D14 is my best bet right now
but when it comes to the u12p(if available) and the A70 i would probably go with the noctura
since they both perform the same and also because the noctura is quieter .
otherwise the A70 is my only real option.
for that price... it sure is .
ok. will do so.
revised build
CPU i7 3770K
MOBO Maximus V Gene
RAM G.Skill RipjawsX DDR3 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL
GPU Sapphire 7970 oc
HDD WD Black WD1002FAEX
PSU Corsair TX 750V2
understood. but instead of getting an tx 650v2 should i could get a tx 750v2 (more overclocking head room?) since it price almost similar to the
tx 650v2 with hardly a 1k difference in pricing. (the it wares )
i m having second thoughts about the h80 and if i dont manage to find the noctua...
will go with the gskills.
i have no plan for plans for sli or cf so will go with the corsair hx 650.
btw is the corsair hx 650 (gold) available in india, or shoud i just go with the regular hx 650 (bronze)
Also is it worth getting an ax 650 if available ?
trying to find a noctua nh-u12p...
How about the HX 650 instead of the tx650V2... and would it be better to get the 3770k or to invest in other components.
because i will use this rig mostly for gaming.
also anyone have a clue as to where the noctura is available?
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans: Gaming (FPS) Battlefield 3/4, Crysis 3, COD, Metro Last Light...
