Hi,
These are my Future Parts for my PC Build.

Core i5 2500K
Asus P8P67 Motherboard
Kingston HyperX 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 Memory Ram
Western Digital 1TB HDD
Gigabyte ATI Radeon 6850
Thermaltake TT Litepower 600W Power Supply
HP DVD ROM
Core i5 Stock CPU Fan

Please tell me what you think I should change around if there is anything to change.


Thanks,
 
Since your getting the unlocked version (k) I assume you plan to overclock. I'd suggest getting an aftermarket CPU cooler.

Also, do you plan on getting a case?
 
You need an OS. I'd go with win 7 premium 64-bit. Also, a cpu cooler and some good thermal paste like Arctic Silver 5 would be good. Make sure you go to the mobo maker's website, find your mobo, and make positive sure that the ram you have chosen matches the supported model number, otherwise you might end up with incompatible ram you have to return or exchange. You can find out the model number of said ram at the website of the memory manufacturer, which in this case is Kingston. There should be a menu that says pc12800, pc16000 etc and then within that it will show you different offerings- look for the model number matching the supported model numbers on the mobo vendor list.

Make sure the HDD is WD Caviar Black.

Looks good...you may want to up the RAM to 8GB...


4GB RAM is enough for now and if he need more he can always upgrade later.
I think 6GB of RAM would be sufficient.

I'd maybe look at a better HDD too if you can afford it. The Samsung Spinpoints are pretty popular. You can get this one for $30 off with the promo code.

1155 has a Dual Channel Memory Controller.


+1.I have had a really bad experience with the Thermaltake PSUs.
 
Alright then and I'll definantly swap the power supply and I'm thinking of swapping the core i5 to core i7 since its not a significant difference in the price.
