• Building a new PC, does it look good?
    4 replies, posted
Moving to a new apartment for University, time to build a new computer. CPU: Intel Core i5 3570K MOBO: Gigabyte Z77-DS3H RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDR3 (2x 4GB) PSU: Corsair Enthusiast 650W TX650 HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB Case: either Thermaltake V4 Black Edition or Thermaltake Commander MS-I. I've been looking for a case for quite some time now and have concluded to either of the 2 above, as I cannot find anything better near my area for the price (less than 50 euros). I'm probably going with the Commander MS-I because of the cable management, even though the design is kinda weird... I'll keep my current GPU for now ( Gigabyte HD5550 1GB DDR3 ) and buy a new one later on, because I cannot afford a new one with my current budget. The total price is 620 euros, which is pretty much my budget atm. Does everything sound compatible, guys? Any recommendations are appreciated!
Maybe consider getting an i3 for now, and using the rest for the gpu budget. The 5550 isn't very good.
i3? That's a good one.

For those of you laughing, the i3 isn't bad. It would fit better in his budget. [url=http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/289?vs=288]i3 2100 vs 2500k[/url]
