Well guys and girlies, I need some help with my new allroad build (which means its for gaming and video/image editing at the same time.)
Be aware that I can spend 3000€ max. Not negotiable.
Let me introduce into the build and its purpose.
First of all, this is gonna be my very first high-end build, I never spent more than 1500€ in a pc, and now Im duplicating that ammount. Its a FULL build including the peripherals except of the keyboard and mouse, so lets get started.
--Internals/PC itself:
-i7 5930K. The only reason why I pick this and not the 5820K are the 40 PCIe lines. (SLI incomming) The 5960X its too expensive for me right now.
-ASUS X99-DELUXE. Quite good mobo, with all you will ever need from it. I took a look to MSI Xpower AC, with same price, but I think that MSI mobo is oriented into extreme Oc, which im not gonna do. Any tip?
-Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB 2666. I found them cheap enough to consider this my first option. Second one are Kingston Hyper X 16GB 2666. 65 bucks cheaper than Corsair ram's...
-Cooler Master V850. Good quality PSU with a nice price tag. Also considering the EVGA Supernova 850 G2. Sorry about all corsair psu fans but, I consider everything corsair do, from keyboards to cases, are expensive as shit. Just my opinion. I have some corsair items
-x2 EVGA GTX970 FTW. I put 2 970's instead of a single 980 because It's only 100€ more expensive and way better in performance. Simple as that.
And here is where things are complicated for me. As Im doing a SLI config I was wondering about upgrading from 1080p to 1440p (2k) BUT the only monitor I consider apropiate right now in 2k is the expensive as fuck ASUS PG278Q RoG Swift 1ms GtG blablabla (800€) AND I wanna play any graphic's pushing game out there as Star Citizen or Crysis 3 and all that kind of stuff with enough FPS room to be unworried for years. Maybe you are thinking right now: Go with x2 GTX 980's and buy that 2k monitor... but that's 2000€ or even more and I can not spend that much only in few parts of the PC considering I must buy a full build.
So please, help me with this . Can x2 970's deal with 2k gaming or I need more power? (I guess its ok for 2k but IDK)
-Samsung 256GB 850 PRO. Good quality SSD. Also taking a look at Intel 730 series, I know its slower but 5 year warranty looks very good, and I think there's not much difference in daily use between this two SSd's. What do you think?
-Western Digital Black 2TB. Well rounded HHD for storage.
That's pretty much it for internal's.
--Peripherals:
-ASUS VG248QE. I think its one of the best 1080p screens out there with a ok price/quality ratio and a high refresh and smooth gaming experience. (Read above about G.cards and monitors)
-Turtle Beach Ear Force Z22. Nice quality and price. Noty gonna spend 250€ in Astro A40 sorry
-Cooler Master Cosmos II. I dont care about WC options. Can't efford a custom loop
Just really like the look of this case, but its a bit expensive so Ill keep an eye on other cases.
So finally, what do you think? Do I must change anything?
Please dont be shy and help me with this headache
Thank you in advance.
