New PC help

[Leshma]

Pretty much sums up why SSD are overrated for gaming. You care about performance, not loading times, and having a SSD does nothing in that regard for the vast majority of games (haven't seen an I/O bound game in quite a while).

You're right about that, but there are developers like Piranha Bytes whose Gothic 3 asked for fastest possible HDD to run decently, even on truly powerful configurations. Maybe their next game will be just like that. Also Warband's loading times can be quite significant with a slower HDD.

Sooooo with this setup now I should be good for a few years right? Im not even close to being worried about upgrading to and SSD right now if I dont have too. If I will eventually, great, but thats way downt he road.

Sooooo badass PC? 10/10 would bang again?

You'll probably have to change GPU in few years but rest is pretty good imho.

BUMP

Gunna be buying all this stuff within a few weeks or months probably. Is this stuff still going to fist fuck pretty much any game out there and for a few years to come?

Notes:

1. IMO fuck SSD because I dont really need to increase loading times and browsing times. Just as long as I get good performance is all that I care about.

2. I dont really need an external cooling unit do I? I have good temp/circulation in my room, there are a shit ton of fans throughout the pc and the parts. So really how could it overheat? and yes I realize that the cooling unit is for internal cooling.

3. On my current pc I have 322gb of space, which at first I thought was 1TB. For the hard drive I have posted, it has 1TB of space to store all of my games and porn right?

I would review the pricing and compare against what is out there now. Prices change rapidly, new tech is released and you are over 75 days since you made that list. For example, the GTX 760 is out now and is a better card for the same or less money than what you would pay for what you listed.

Well the graphics card I have listed I already own and is already a good card. So Im not really willing to pay for another card that is only somewhat better than the current one I already have.

I would have gone for:

Processor: Intel Core i5-4670(K)   $209 ($239)                                                                                                           http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116898

For case: Fractal Design Define R4 $110 (Cases might be a bit personal, this is just what I like )                           http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352020

Motherboard: ASUS Z87-PRO LGA 1150 $200                                                                                                              http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131979

Harddrive: Seagate Barracuda 1TB $69 / Western Digital 1TB $89                                                                              http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840

Btw: I am not that good at computers, so this might not be the best option to go for

Lol at $200 motherboard.

Seriously. That extra cash could definitely go somewhere more useful.

Update time bitches. With black friday strolling around the corner, I want to know if what I have will still butt rape pretty much any game out there, or is there something better and if not the same price or around it possibly even cheaper with a sweet black friday deal or cyber monday deal.

[GandalfJr]

I feel immensely jealous I have a HP Pavilon, Pentium Processor, and a shit graphics card that cant show the ground in NW or the barrels and any new things in that stuff...

[Tom Cruise]

Awwwwwwwww yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. My fellow nerds. It is that time again to update. This time I will actually be buying a new pc soon without any other things coming in the way (hopefully). If I were to upgrade the GPU and possibly the power supply and add a cooling system, what would all of that be? By that I mean whats a good GPU and PSU and shit to go along with the motherboard, processors, etc?

Edit: Apparently the motherboard is out of stock, so I need a new one of those too
