    Building a pc - NEED HELP


    Hey I have one question(or more, I dont know). Will this components be compatible if not recommend me something else, it cant be costing more than the price I type! This is what I was thinking to build! One more question- can you recommend me a not to expensive cooling fan (for processor) which I can OverClock a little bit with!? Please the fan must be from AMAZON!

    Here are the specs:
    Chassis: Cooler Master HAF ATX Mid Tower Case 922 - 89$

    Motherboard: Asus P9X79 DELUXE Intel X79 So.2011 Quad Channel DDR3 ATX Retail - 380

    Processor: Intel Core i7 3820 4x 3.60GHz So.2011 WOF – 310$

    GPU: 3072MB PowerColor Radeon HD 7950 – 430$

    RAM: Corsair 16GB XMS3 (2x 8GB) DDR3 1600Mhz - 110$

    PSU: CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX750 -105$

    Optical Drive: Asus 24xDVD-RW Serial ATA Internal OEM Drive – 22$

    Total: 1448$

    If you don't need a case quite that big, I can't recommend the HAF912 enough....plus it's cheaper.

    Cooler Master also makes a Hyper 212 Evo, I think, that should allow you plenty of OC'ing headroom. I have two of the Hyper 212+ models, and they are quiet and perform very well....and are very cheap.

    Samsung optical drives work very well and are just as cheap. I'm not a big Asus guy, so maybe that's just an opinion.

    I don't see any hard drives listed. Did you forget or do you already have hard drives?

    Looks like you have a relatively high budget. I'd certainly get an SSD for the operating system and programs and a standard HDD for data. SSD: Intel or Samsung; HDD: Western Digital or Samsung.

    You likely won't need 16 GB of RAM, but you may have an unusual circumstance requiring that much?

    Is there a particular reason you chose that motherboard?? Do you need 8 RAM slots?

    What you have chosen looks pretty good, excluding hard drives.

    Post a link to the Amazon site from which you will purchase.

    The Coolermaster Hyper 212 that Deacon mentioned is a good choice.

    I'd definitely get an SSD.

    Post a link to the site from which you will buy.

    How many hard drives will you need?

    If the site is not in English, I can't help much.
