My first gaming rig

[GT5fan123]

Could you give me recommendations/suggestions to CPU coolers?

price would be like 30-50 Euros (40,10 - 66,82 USD)

For a laptop or desktop. If desktop, what exact model of cpu and motherboard, if for laptop, you're out of luck.

 

[GT5fan123]

of course for desktop, please look page 3 for further information

Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo: €35

this one

 

[GT5fan123]

i've found a AC Freezer V2 for 38,90€ so I might change the Hyper 212 EVO to that

 

[spirit]

I would probably go with the 212 Evo.

so, the new set up will look like this

MoBo: Gigabyte 990XA-UD3, 990X/SB950, AMD AM3+, ATX (109,-€)
CPU: AMD FX-6300, AM3+, 3.5GHz, 6-core (112,80€)
CPU cooler: Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme V2 (36,90€)
GPU: Gigabyte AMD RadeonR9 270X OC, 2GB DDR5, DVI/HDMI/2x MiniDP, PCI-E 3.0 (199,-€)
RAM: Kingston HyperX Blu 2x4GB, DDR3, CL9, 1600MHz (79,-€)
SSD: Kingston 60GB SSDNow (60,90€)
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1TB (65,-€)
ODD: ASUS DRW 24-F1ST (23,-€)
Case: ThermalTake Commander USB 3.0+PSU: Corsair Builder Series CX500W 80+ BULK (70,-€)

Total price is 755,60€ (1014$, 631,11£) so I'm making 94,40€ saving of my 850€ budget

Looks like a pretty good build to me. :good:

 

[GT5fan123]

the 500w psu will be enough for OCing the cpu?

 

[Okedokey]

the 500w psu will be enough for OCing the cpu?

what exact psu are you referring too?

 

[StrangleHold]

If your not going to run crossfire, I would change the board it this one. Has a 8+2 power phase and would save you 20 bucks. Then add 10 bucks and get a FX 8320.

[GT5fan123]

i planned this rig to run euro truck 2, possibly gta iv

 

[PCunicorn]

Definitely get a 8320 and if you can't afford it drop the CPU cooler. You can always get a CPU cooler. A CPU upgrade is harder and you lose money.

 

[GT5fan123]

I've counted that the total price will be 755,60€ (saving 94,40€) so I can afford the 8320 with the AC Freezer Xtreme V2 CPU cooler

 

[GT5fan123]

what exact psu are you referring too?

The Corsair Builder Series CX500W 80+ BULK

 

[spirit]

CX500 should be fine but I would maybe look at the CX600 if it's not much expensive, just for a bit of headroom.

 

[GT5fan123]

Well, I can afford the CX600M PSU (according to my 850€ budget), listing the set up once again after some calculations

 

[spirit]

If you can get the CX600M then I would get that.

 

[GT5fan123]

This is the final set up change (I don't wanna change it all the time coz it's pretty frustrating), so here it comes:

MoBo: Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3, AMD AM3+, 990X7Sb950, DDR3, ATX (109,-€)
CPU: AMD FX-8320, AM3+, 3.5GHz, 8-core (149,-€)
CPU Cooler: AC Freezer Xtreme V2 (36,90€)
GPU: Gigabyte AMD Radeon R9 270X OC, 2GB GDDR5, DVI/HDMI/2xMini-DP, PCI-E 3.0 (199,-€)
RAM: Kingston HyperX Blu 2x4GB, 1600Mhz (79,-€)
SSD: Kingston 60GB SDDnow (60,90€)
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1TB (65,-€)
ODD: ASUS DRW 24-F1ST (23,-€)
Case: ThermalTake Commander USB 3.0 (30,-€)
PSU: Corsair CX600M (80,-€)

Total price is 794,90€ ($ 1067, £ 663,94) and total savings are 55,10€ (£46,02, $74)
