Building this for my brother for christmas…
Can someone verify this will work before I buy everything?
NZXT H2 Case
Noctua NH-D14 Cpu Cooler
Thermaltake purepower 500 np PSU (already have)
Gigabyte ga-z68x-ud3h-b3 Board
Intel Core i7 2700k CPU
BFG Geforce GTS 250 OC (Already Have)
1 Set 2x8gb Geil Evo Corsa 1333 DDR3 Mem1
1 Set 2x8gb gskill RipJaws X 1333 DDR3 Mem2
OCZ Vertex 3 60GB SSD
2TB Hitachi Deskstar (Already Have)
What are you looking for this rig to do? Is this for a gaming PC? Also do you know if he plans on overclocking?
I just want to know if everything will work together properly, I know I am going to have to buy the molex to 8 pin adapter for the psu and board, i only plan on overclocking it maybe to like 4 ghz.
Thanks
Yea everything should work, but if you want to get the most out of your RAM go with 1600MHz, trust me its worth the extra $$$ http://www.newegg.com/Shopping/ShoppingItem.aspx?ItemList=N82E16820144486
Everything will fit, on the SSD drive though… I own 10 different SSD’s, out of all of them the OCZ is by far the most problematic. I’ve had to RMA it twice, they just can’t seem to get a stable firmware for it. If you want a fast ssd that is stable i would recomend the Corsair Force 3 GT
be careful when installing ram from different makes or companies as they will be conflicted. aside from that, looks good.
