Hey guys,
So I'm looking to invest in a new Gaming PC. My one is 5 years old now, its still good but I want to be able to play new games at high Graphics with good FPS and so on. I will primarily be using the PC for gaming, the rest will be; streaming live, recording gameplay, editing videos, uploading. That is it. I will be keeping my current PC next to my new one for all the other stuff you need a PC for.
I have a flexible budget but obviously I don't want to spend too much. So far the build I am contemplating is this:
Case: NZXT H440 Red/black PSU: 750w Bronze Corsair CXM MOBO: MSI Z170 Gaming Pro CPU: i5 6600K CPU Cooler: NZXT X31 Water Cooler Memory: 8GB 3000Mhz DDR4 RED SSD: 240GB M.2 Sata Patriot SSD HDD: 3TB 7200rpm HDD Graphics: Asus GTX980 Strix OS: Windows 10 64 bit
Now I am thinking about changing a few things and need your ideas on them.
Working down the list:
- The PSU I am thinking of getting a 850W as 3 years down the line when my settings go from ultra to high/medium I want to throw in another Graphics card, and I don't want the power to be a limiting issue.
- Will that MOBO support SLI?
- Regarding the CPU I am thinking of the i5 6600K vs the i7 6700K.
- With the GPU how much difference is in the GTX 980 Strix to the GTX 980 Ti?
Thank you guys for taking the time to help out with this. I'm hoping to get everything soon so I can build it within one to two weeks!
