What Game Are You Playing Right Now?

Might want to go with an i5 unless youre doing something that will take advantage of the i7. Also, you dont need nearly that much W on your PSU (go lower watts better metal if youre not already).

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/d4fKgw = 233W (400 should be plenty)

I have all the parts, pulled the PSU from a different build.

Don't need better quality than a Seasonic, never had a bad experience with their products.

Ahh okay. I thought you were just buying a new build. I missed that first sentence.

Akai · 12-24-2018, 07:55 PM

For this specific build the PSU was the only part I had ready, everything else I got used or new.

Long story short I got some good deals.

^nice. I still have room for an extra hard drive so I've considered it
Just to have. I'm also upgrading to 3 monitors soon but haven't been motivated to do it yet. I have duel 27in LG monitors. Have had em for years and they are fantastic. Highly recommend if you're looking for a good monitor.

Do it, you'll never want to go back.

Especially if you do alot of multi tasking.

It's high on my wishlist. Just have to do it. The monitors are pretty cheap.

**** let me come over to your house we would have that baby running in two hours tops.

It's nice to see someone utilize the good ol Sandy Bridge. I'm still running my 2500K @ 4.4ghz for the past 8 years. I shouldn't need a new CPU for a few years still.
