I normally Choose GPUs Based on Price and the Toms Hardware GPU Hierarchy Chart, But it hasn't been upgraded for June so no 980 Ti or R9 3xx Cards Listed on it yet to see where they list them at. the 295x2 was Top of the Board, #1 for AMD on the same Level as the GTX Titan Z with the Radeon HD 7990 & GTX 690/Titan X Listed below them, and below those is Nothing for AMD and the GTX 780Ti, 980 & Titan Black for Nvidia

Assembling a pc doesn't require skill.

If you can operate a Phillips screwdriver, have one hour, and can read instructions, you can assemble a PC.

If you want to overclock that PC, that's another story.

[Darian DelFord]

Thanks again for the replies. Being the idjit that I am here is what I am looking for. My problem is brands and numbers mean nothing to me, that is where I get lost now adays

My min specs are Intel 7 something or other

Nvidida (GeForce) Cards, I have just had many issues with Raedon in the past and Nvidia I know

Do not really care about overclocking it.

At least 16 gigs of Ram.

1 TB drive and a at least 250GB SSD

And a kick ass colorful case with shiny lights... Hey got to show the damn thing off don't I!!!!

But thank you all for the replies, will be seriously looking at ordering the parts next week sometime

If you're absolutely not overclocking it, you won't need a high end liquid cpu cooler and only need to spend about $50 for a good air heat sink.

Yeah I like gaming don't get me wrong, but I personally just don't see the need for OC"ing a rig when it can run when I need it to rurn.

If you're not in DIRE need of a rig, wait till august and get one of the new Intel Skylake CPUs. It's the sole true "new" CPU on Intel's side for four years, so there should be considerable progress. Ofc you could go for broadwell if you need a new PC now and can't wait. But honestly, atm I would rather buy an i7-5820 than to invest in outdated technology with barely enough PCIe 3.0lanes to support a GPU and SSD. Not to speak of Multi-GPU-setups.

And don't be fooled, those watercooling AiOs are only useful if you try to get well over 150W of excess heat out of your box. Usual CPUs in Intel's mainstream-portfolio are can't reach 100W even whilst using their integrated GPU. And you don't get those AiOs silent. Those small pumps integrated are a constant noise source which sound like a buzzing beehive. Ofc the only way to hear this is if the rest of your system isn't noisy as hell, too.
You got plenty of room to spend for a decent CPU-air cooler. The single heatsource which really should be watercooled is your GPU - because due to the design of your mainboard, there is barely enough space to integrate a truly powerful air cooler. Simple thermodynamics - cooling needs large surfaces or a large DeltaT.

Wait for Skylake? Since OP doesn't want to OC, definitely a good idea.
If it must be done now, a 5820? OP doesn't want to OC, so that's a bad idea. A 4790 is a much better idea.
Go for more PCIe lanes? Bad advice, OP isn't doing SLI and there are plenty on Haswell refresh/Z97 for a single card+SSDs.
AIOs are only useful after 150W? Bad advice. Temp delta can affect CPUs and most AIOs aren't geared for that much beyond 150W.
Get a decent air cooler? Good advice since OP isn't overclocking. I recommend Noctua.
Water cool the GPU? Probably bad advice. Nvidia 900-series cards have heatsinks with more than ample dissipation headroom until they are heavily overclocked. Good advice if OP has the money to consider a factory water-cooled GPU.

[Darian DelFord]

And now you all just confused me

So Skylake is a next Gen processor which will be better, and releases in Fall of 2015ish?

Correct. It also requires DDR4, which at the moment is obscenely expensive compared to DDR3. Keep in mind the above listed awesome builds are about $600 for CPU + Mobo + Ram. The next gen stuff when it first hits will likely cost 2.5x that price, leaving the rest of your budget hamstrung.

Personally I wouldn't wait for the next best thing on the horizon, especially if it is a big new (unproven) step forward. I was once stuck with a "Top of the Line" Intel Pentium 4 1.7 GHz chip utilizing the newest, bestest RAMBUS ram, that was going to be the wave of the future. Except it wasn't. It was a horrible flop and rambus completely died in about 3 years. As such, when I went to upgrade everyone was like 'Sorry guy, didn't you hear, RAMBUS sucks and you need to buy a new rig.' No faster cpu's to upgrade to, ram NEVER came down in price. Only option for a poor college kid was to start again from scratch, which I couldn't do until I graduated and got a real job.

DDR3 is just about at it's peak and will remain very, very good for a long time, and it will be around. Stick with the good proven tech, no real reason to go bleeding edge for MWO.

This statement is only accurate if you add the word "maybe" since nobody actually knows how things will turn out yet. It isn't released and all we have is the rumor mill. Intel did set the stage for its release in August, though.

EDIT: Take it with a grain of salt, but KitGuru had this to say about some chip touted as the real deal a couple days ago: Intel Core i7-6700K central processing unit integrates four cores with Hyper-Threading and features 4.0GHz frequency, 4.20GHz maximum Turbo Boost clock-rate, 8MB last-level cache, a dual-channel DDR3L/DDR4 memory controller with 1600MHz or 2133MHz support, 95W TDP, Intel HD Graphics 6000-series integrated graphics core as well as LGA1151 packaging.

That makes it sound like it could be up to the individual motherboard to specify which RAM will be used in a system since it has a memory controller for DDR3L and DDR4 (the L stands for low-voltage, it is somewhat common now).

Out of all your parts only two things I would change, the case is very questionable IMO. I wouldn't blow over $150 on a case, but I would find one that has better air flow. The AIO water cooler is the other thing I would not use, but with your level of experience in building computers from what I have gathered, I am sure it will suit you well. This should be a solid gaming rig for you, and I am sure you will love it! Good luck with it, and I did respond to your other thread about this in off topic.

How can you tell the air flow?

And I have no level of experience building PC's the last one I did was over 10 years ago ;p So much has changed since then
