Hi All
I am after a bit of advice
Basically the time has come to rebuild / Build a new computer. Basically every 4-5 years I look at replacing most of my PC.
Currently I have
Q9650 intel Quad processor
Nvidia 780i SLI motherboard
2 x GTX 260 black edition graphics cards
4 x 2GB RAM kingston and crucial (crucial died and RMA'd back kingston was bought as replacement while I waited hense the 2 manufactures)
2 x 1TB WD in mirror RAID config (has saved my data once )
1000W corsair i think its the HX series PSU but i know it is a 1000W
basically ive been trying to get my head around all the new products that have come out and after 5 hours of looking at different parts I have come up with
Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO Z97 Socket 1150 VGA DVI HDMI 8-ch audio ATX Motherboard
Intel Core i7 4790K 4GHz Socket 1150 8MB L3 Cache Retail Boxed Processor
G.Skill 16GB(8GBx2) G-Skill TridentX DDR3 PC3-17000 2133mhz Cas9 1.6
Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming 4GB GDDR5 Dual DVI HDMI DisplayPort PCI-E Graphics Card
the case I have is a cool master HAF 932 which along with the PSU I am looking to reuse as both to me are big enough to encorporate the new build. SSD drives I have not looked at yet but I will be once I have a better idea if I have the above correct.
basically the graphics card and CPU I am happy with. The motherboard I have chosen through a bit of research and im happy with the features of the board. can I have some advice if this one is OK or not.
I am definatly stuck on RAM I only came accross the TridentX memory by accident and a few people said its the memory for the motherboard. I really need some advice here on this one please.
I mainly use the PC to play games such as Battlefield, World Of Tanks, Eve Online
anyhelp would be much appreciated
Thanks
