Ram- 2x4 Gskill 1600 DDR3
GPU- EVGA GTX 760
Monitors- 3 Asus vh328h
SSD- 120GB Samsung 840 EVO
CPU- i5 4670K
CPU Cooler- Random Coolermaster I forget the name of, good reviews tho.
Total was $1328.47, then there are ~$90 of mail in rebates which I'll wait to see if I get. But if all goes well the build will cost about what I wanted. Tho I still need to prolly grab some 320GB HHD.
Very excited.
So happy I made this thread. Didn't know what PSU I had and this was easier than opening the case up.
I still have exactly this PC/Monitors, and am looking to upgrade the GPU and Monitors. Going to get either a GTX 1070, 1080, or 1080 TI. I will need a bigger power supply as I still have the 500 watt one from this build. I think the case will have enough space to hold any of those three cards.
I also am going to get 1 MG278Q and 2 PB277Q monitors. All of which are 1440p the MG287Q is 144hz and will be the main monitor.
I only ever plan on gaming on the main MG278Q while having youtube/spotify/light web reading open on the others while gaming.
So couple of things, anything else you feel I should upgrade as well, like the mother board or ram?
Also is a 1070 or 1080 enough to get 144hz on the main monitor and browsing and whatnot on the others at the same time? I get that if I only had one monitor it's prolly enough but it will need to push out all the extra pixels and maybe some youtube stuff at the same time. Or do I need to get a 1080 ti? Mainly playing Overwatch, SC2, Hearthstone and in the future some cross compatible Xbox titles prolly crackdown who knows what else.
I assume the CPU won't bottleneck this at all either?
