Hi,
About to buy a whole heap of components to build a new PC (gaming) but mostly for fsx. . . Anyway . . .
Here's the rig:
Case: Corsair 780t
Motherboard: Maximus VII Ranger
Processor: Core i7-4970k
Graphics Card: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB ACX Edition Card
RAM: Vengeance Pro Series 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1866Mhz CL9 XMP Performance
Hard Drive: Seagate 7200.14 2TB SATA III 3.5" Hard Drive
Wifi Adapter: Belkin Surf Plus 300Mbps USB 2.0 WiFi Adapter
Optical Drive: Samsung SH-224DB DVD Writer Optical Drive
PSU: Corsair RM Series 650W Power Supply 80 Plus Gold
Monitor: BenQ RL2455HM 24" Full HD LED Monitor
Just a couple of questions about my selected hardware.
CPU: I understand from the youtube video that intel's statement about 1600mhz Ram is not something to be concerned and that much higher speeds can be attained from this CPU, however I just want to make sure that if I'm buying the RAM at higher stock speeds, will this still be compatible with the processor?
RAM: I have also been considering HyperX Savage 16GB DDR3 1866MHz Dual Channel instead of the corsair. . . Other than aesthetics is there any advantage over the corsair ram?
PSU: Do i need PSU with more watts?
Thanks in advanced, and sorry to be such a newby with probablly really simple questions. If anyone feels i've missed anything off, please shout out.
