So my computer got smoke damaged and is now throwing crucial thread failure BSOD and I'm considering all parts unreliable since they've all been covered in soot while running.
I was planning on waiting for skylake (I wanted 6 cores damn it), but it looks like I'll have to take a serious look at haswell : (
I put this build together real quick.
DVD drive: Asus dvd burner 20$
Who cares? Hopefully it'll be quiet, but really I'll use it to install windows and that's it...
Case: Antec 1100 110$
I'm pretty cripple these days so trying to go for something semi-light (old case is antec 1200), but don't want something that's a pain in the ass to work in either. It's only a couple of pounds heavier than the 900 I think.
Video Card: EVGA GTX 760 250$
I like nvidia. Always felt like the more hassle free choice. Might double up for SLI down the line
Hard Drive: Samsung EVO 250gig 183$
Always try for butter smooth computers even before ssds so yea this is a must and it seems like the best buy right now? Probably will get more later, but trying to keep cost down for now.
PSU: Sparkle 650W 60$
Should be enough power for SLI if I so desire? Sparkle is decent right?
RAM: gskill 16 gigs 150$
I always stay ahead of the curve quantity-wise; I keep a shit-ton open generally too. G Skill has never failed me so I just go for them. Kind of picked the exact ones at random.
Motherboard: Gigabyte UD3H 160$
Can do SLI. Gigabytes always been rock solid for me, but they're cheaper boards didn't seem to be getting good reviews so I picked out this one.
CPU: Haswell 4770 310$
If my computer hitches for a split second I rage and I tend to have a lot of things running at the same time so I like having the excess fake cores.
Heatsink: Hyper 212 40$
Worked pretty awesome in my old computer so I'm going for it again. I might try to mess around seeing what I can get near stock voltage.
Total: 1,382.90$
I'll probably try to look for combo deals/sales on other sites before making an actual order, but figured I'd bounce my build off some people beforehand.
