Going to be making my first computer, and need some advice
So I'm going to be making a custom built rig soon, and need some advice to make sure everything works and is compatible. I've done some research and it seems like they would all work, but some advice on building my first computer would be useful as well. Here are the parts I've been looking at:
Case - Antec Twelve Hundred Black Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case
**PSU - CORSAIR 750W ATX12V 80 PLUS Certified
CPU - Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core (Going to OC at least to 4.0GHz)
OS HDD - ADATA 2.5" 40GB SATA II Internal Solid State Drive (I've been wondering if I should use this as the main C: drive or put it as the secondary drive? I'm assuming it would be C:)
Data HDD - RAID0 2x Western Digital Caviar Black WD6402AAEX 640GB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
GPU - SAPPHIRE FleX Radeon HD 6950 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 (Going to flash to a 6970)
Motherboard - ASUS P8P67 PRO (REV 3.0) LGA 1155
RAM - CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM 1600
CD/DVD - ASUS SATA 24X DVD Burner
Media Reader - Nippon Labs Delux 3.5" Internal All In One Card Reader/Writer
Thermal Paste - Arctic Silver 5
CPU Cooler - Thermalright U120eXtreme 120mm Fluid Dynamic CPU Cooler
** I'm having some doubts about whether or not this is a sufficient power supply. Should I up it to 850w or is 750w enough for this?
Thanks.
