Good build?

[DiogoPRT]

Hi guys.

I'm from Portugal, and I want to know if this is a good build, and if it handles well a GTX560.

CPU Intel 1155 i5 2400 Box (3,10GHz)

ASRock P67 Extreme 4

ZOTAC GTX 560 TI - 1 GB GDDR5

GSKILL PC3-12800 4GB RipjawsX CL9 (2x2GB) XL DDR3

SilverStone Strider Plus 600W

I need to know if this PSU can handle a GTX560. In some reviews, they say that it can handle a GTX260 SLI and HD5850 CF... but I'm not sure and I need some help.

For more 45€ I could get the HX-650W, or SilverStone Strider Plus Series 750W for more 50€.

Remember, I'm from Portugal... The prices and products are different. The shop where I am going to buy is www.alientech.pt and the Graphics Card at www.pixmania.pt

It is a good build? Is there anything that I could get better? All of the components costs me 660€. And I don't want to spent much more...

Help

Your build looks good, although if I were you i'd go for the 2500K but the 2400 is good enough if you are not going to be overclocking and just gaming.

As for the PSU, according to Nvidia http://www.nvidia.co...x-560ti-uk.html a 500W PSU is all you need so the one you are looking at will run it fine

First of all, thank you!

2 - This build is not for me, it's for a friend, but he doesn't know how to overclock, so the 2500K would be unnecessary.

1 - That's not my point. I want to know if it can handle a SLI of GTX560. Does it?

According to http://www.guru3d.co...i-sli-review/14 you need a 700w+ PSU to run two 560s in SLI. So go for the SilverStone Strider Plus Series 750W.

Hum, ok. I just saw this PSU for 78€ in Portugal, and I think that this was a great deal.

Thank you (;

If he doesn’t plan to overclock a 600W would do it. But I would personally buy something that has 4xpcie 6 and 8 pin connectors for easier/tidier built.
