Hi,
I just want to get some general advice on building my first PC.
Here are the components that I have selected:
- Noctua NH-U12P Special Edition SE2
- Intel Core i7 960 Processor LGA1366 3.2GHz 8MB Cache CPU
- Western Digital 1TB SATA3 64M(WD1002FAEX)
- Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000 Mouse w BlueTrack Retail
- SilverStone ST75F-P 750W Power Supply
- Gigabyte GTX580 1536Mb PCI Express
- Pioneer BDR-206BK 12X Blu-Ray Writer Drive SATA Black OEM
- Gigabyte G1.Sniper X58+ICH10R QPI 6.4GT/s DDR3 2200 PCI-Ex16 SATA3
USB
- Kingston Hyperx 12G(3x4G) 1600Mhz DDR3 CL9
- Lian Li PC-Z60 Mid Tower Chassis Black
Have I gone over the top, can I get cheaper components that will basically do the same thing (build price ~2000)?
Does anyone know if the motherboard will fit the Lian Li PC-Z60) Mid Tower? I have had a look on the manufacturers web site but I am not sure, it says the PC-Z60 fits ATX motherboards...
The Noctua fan has good reviews but everyone says how large it is and I am not sure if it will fit in the case either???
Any help would be appreciated!!!
Thanks
Michael
