Hi guys,
Recently decided to built the computer from scratch, but haven't done this before, therefore I am not sure if the components that I have picked do match or even if they will fit into the case that I want to buy (I have contacted Thermaltake, but havent received a reply yet). Any help or advice would be really appreciated! Thank you!
Here are the components I have picked:
• 1 NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 580 - 1.5GB GRAPHICS CARD. Wanted a graphics card to be at least 480.
Was also thinking about EVGA cards, as they do motherboards as well, but not too sure about that one
• Intel Core i7-960 Socket 1366 Quad-Core CPU Retail (BX80601960)
• OCZ 240GB Vertex 2 2.5inch MLC SATA Internal SSD Hard Drive (OCZSSD2-2VTXE240G)
• Corsair Professional Gold AX1200 High Performance 1200W Power supply (CMPSU-1200AXUK)
• Thermaltake Level 10 Black Case
• Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7 LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard (or Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard or equivalent)
I was interested in the feasibility of using components based on X58 motherboard and processor i7 and in the combination of processors, memory and motherboards.
I know I have missed the RAM and optical drive, as I am not sure what to get. If you have any suggestions, I could really use them
Thanks a lot!
