EDIT: Changed the GPU
So I'm helping a friend build his first PC. This is the list of components I've put together, but I'd like som feedback since I'm also very new to this (only built 1 PC before). The PC will be used for gaming, and no overclocking will be done
Part | Product |
---|---|
CPU | Intel Core i5-3570 |
Motherboard | Gigabyte GA-Z77N-WIFI, Socket 1155 |
RAM | 8 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600MHz CL9 |
SSD | Samsung SSD 840 Series 120 GB 2.5" OEM |
HDD | Seagate Barracuda 1TB |
DVD | ASUS DVD Writer, DRW-24B5ST |
CPU Cooler | Cooler Master Seidon 120M CPU Cooler |
GPU | EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB PhysX CUDA |
PSU | Corsair TX 650W PSU |
Case | BitFenix Prodigy - Black |
OS | Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OEM |
I already have cooling paste, in case the CPU Cooler doesn't come with it preaplied. Also I have been told that in the Prodigy case it is better to have a non-modular PSU, which is what I've gone for. What I'd like to know is whether there will be som veird bottlenecks in this system, or if some of the components will not work together (Here I'm thinking the CPU and GPU - is i5 non-K enough?). Also I'm a bit worried if the graphics card will heat the case up too much.
Thank you for your time :)
