[Medium budget] PC Build

[AndrealphusVIII]

Hello all

 

I'm thinking of getting the following build (for around 1200 euros). Is this a decent build for gaming and future proof for at least 4 years?

 

-GPU: Palit GeForce GTX 770 JetStream
-SSD: Kingston SSDnow V300 (240GB version)
-PSU: Corsiar CX Series Modular CX600M (600 Watt)
-CPU: Intel Core i5 4670/ 3.4GHz
-CPU Cooler: Gelid Tranquillo Rev.2
-Mobo: MSI B85-G43
-Case: Cooler Master Elite K380
-DvD Drive: Samsung SH-224BB
-RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport VLP (16GB version)
-HDD: Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 (1 TB)
-2nd HDD with around 250GB-500GB for backup files
-OS: Windows 7 64-bit

 

Any advice is welcome. :)

 

Thanks in advance

 

Kind regards

Andre

How large is your screen going to be and how much memory does the GPU have?
You could probably save on the GPU by getting the 760ti since it's very similar, just has less cores.

Kingston... don't recommend it. Look for Crucial M500, same 240GB. Faster, more reliable, newer, and only a bit more expensive.

Try to get a TX650V2 power supply.

RAM-wise, 8GB is enough, save some here.

 

HDD - recommend against Seagate, and better get one 1.5-2 TB drive instead. You don't backup on another HDD. You backup from your SSD (isn't everything valuable there) to your HDD. And most valuable backups go online, there's free services.

Okay, thanks for the advice :-)
