Hello, so I am wondering if you guys could review this build I'm doing to make sure it's all good CPU- 3570k CPU Cooler- CM Hyper EVO 212 Mobo- MSI Z77A-G41 GPU- MSI GTX 770 Storage- (Reusing a 1tb HDD that already has windows installed on it) Ram- (Would me reusing 4 sticks of 2GB memory be fine?) PSU- Silverstone Strider Essential 600W Case- Fractal Design Define R4 Also another question about the RAM, it is currently running @1066, would I be able to overclock that to 1333 with little problem?
From what I read around this forum and beyond, I would suggest you not go with RAM slower that 1600.
Could you please post the price for each part as well as your total budget and lastly links to each part, so we can see if there is a better alternative. I don't know anything about RAM overclocking, so I can't tell you if you would be able to, but at the same time I doubt it. If I were you, I would just get 2 x 4GB DDR3-1600 Mhz for $60. You could upgrade to Haswell (4670k + z87-G41) for a little extra performance and a little extra cost. That is up to you. There might be some better alternatives for the PSU and GPU (still a GTX 770 but a different manufacturer) that would get you better for less.
