My cheap rig build, need your feedback.

I would suggest getting a SSD.

X2 on losing the Green. Greens are OK for data storage as long as they don't run more than a handful of hours a day but make really lousy OS and Game drives. I personally prefer the WD Blacks for internal drives since they are far more responsive (not to mention my machine runs 24/7). SSDs are much better for the OS and programs. To keep expenses down, you could get a small 120-128GB SSD (my preference would a 128GB Samsung 850 Pro) for the OS and basic programs and put the games on a 1TB WD Black.

Hello Vishal Hardeo!

I too would agree with GokAy and Lady Fitzgerald about the WD Green.

More or less, what was said is so, the Greens are designed with IntelliPower especially for back up and archiving hard drives, they don't perform so well as loading drives, as they are with a different purpose.

The Black on the other hand is a much better choice. It is a maximum performance hard drive with 5 year limited warranty, 7200 RPM, but faster than the average 7200 RPM drives. It is also very good in multitasking.

A SSD is also a very common and well made choice – one 120GB SSD for the OS and programs and most games and 1TB average 7200 RPM HDD for other games and personal data is the most frequently seen set up.

You could go with that last option. But since you've stressed on a “cheap gaming rig” I would suggest you using only a 1TB WD Blue. It is 7200 RPM, loads quickly and is the everyday storage and OS loading drive. :)

If you decide you want some more power, then look into the WD Black. :)

Although, as a rep for WD, CKWD is a bit limited in how much bragging he can do, I'm not and can tell you personally WD's warranty service is excellent, even for a so called "limited" warranty. Late last year, I had a 2TB WD Green that was near the end of the warranty period start throwing reallocation errors. WD quickly replaced it under warranty with no hassle.

WD is very stringent on how one packs a HDD being returned. However, I cheated and had them cross ship the replacement drive (got it in two days since I'm just in the next State), then returned the old drive, using the packaging WD used to send the replacement drive in (they can hardly disapprove of their own packaging), after I had tested the new drive and put it in service. They shipped the replacement on their dime. I had to pay the return shipping but WD allows you to take advantage of the steep bulk discount they get from UPS so it was very reasonable.

The Blues are excellent drives—the 1TB Blue has been slightly faster than the 1TB Blacks—but, sadly, the Blues cap out at only 1TB. If you need or want more capacity, then the Blacks are the way to go. I favor the Blacks for internal use for their increased capacity and longer warranty but, even then, they are still overkill for backup drives.

An A6-5400 and a GTX 730 will not hold up in a gaming rig, they're not gaming components. See if you can stretch to an FX-6300 and a GTX 750/750ti.

Your little brother might wanna play games on it so I suggest you go for a little something better than 730 and get a used GTX 760

It depends on your games. Your GTX730 Will hold Portal, L4D and Minecraft, but if you want to play COD:AW or even BO3 if it comes out, you'll defenitly need an upgrade.
