[abou93270]

Hey people i'm new in this forum. I am planning to build a PC, but i'm kind of struggling because of the so many choice out there and i dont if the part im planning to use are gonna meet my needs for now or later. I don't really plan to upgrade my pc for like 3+4 years, so i'm taking the best component right now available so they "hopefully" last a long time. Can anybody give my tips if my rigs is good enough for that.

I actually moved from console gaming to pc gaming because....well you know better frame per second, higher resolution, and other thing that console game doesnt have "yet". I'm still used to the controller so for the mousse i definitely need help if whether it is worth buying evn though i know i might not use it often

Things I need help for
- Remove unnecessary component or make a better suggestion on

- PSU is not overkill or better suggestion
- If i should consider gaming mouse or regular mousse since most of the time i'm gonna use the controller after just moving from console gaming to PC gaming
- If i should add more gb in ssd or hdd
- Finally, if it gonna last about 3+4 years and the rig is upgradable.
- whether i should consider SLI

To be honest I think you've about nailed it ........ Only one thing I'd swap and that's the WD Green IntelliPower they have quite high failure rates so I'd switch it for the WD Caviar Black.

If you can afford it maybe go for the 250GB SSD seeing as you want it for 3+ years.
Will you be overclocking at all? I only ask as ram coolers are pretty pointless.

Even Caviar blue would be better although i personally prefer black. Also definitely consider the 250 gb SSD as they fill pretty quickly.
Regarding SLI depends on longevity. I would keep the 780 and plan to upgrade to sli in the future when they get cheaper and you need more graphics although as seen with the Asus MARS two 760's will buy you a lot of preformance now with limited upgrade path in the future and could be cheaper.
