Where's the SSD for the Operating System? You need an SSD versa my old pal!

[uhZylon]

You don't need a 4820K.
Going to assume it's main use is gaming. And you dont need to stray past a 4770k for that as you're just dropping more money for a 2011 Socket Motherboard for the 4820k compared to a cheaper 1150 socket on the 4770k.

So you're saying I can go lower on the cpu and the motherboard well what would you recommend?

I need an ssd? Hey whats up dude how have you been?

[Lovroman]

40 bucks for shipping of the case, lulz.

Yea, definetly throw in an SSD(like 840 EVO).

What's the main purpose of the build?

If gaming only->you don't need 16GB of RAM and the 4820K(and obv, this LGA 2011 board).
So:

4670K + Z87-A(a pretty good board, you can do a nice OC on it and it's not pricey compared to some other boards) + 8GB of RAM

or

same as - 4670K + 4770K(unless more games will start profiting from hyperthreading, you won't need it)

And regarding the 4820K, buy it only if you're going to upgrade to the 4930K/4960X in the future, but anyway, I wouldn't(especially if you're going to use this PC only for gaming).

Oh, then the 4770K and 16GB will be a great combo.

Somehow I pefer the 840 EVO when it comes to SSDs.
Take a look:https://ssd.userbenchmark.com/Compare...0GB/1511vs1594
There's a ten bucks difference, so you dedice wether to buy it or no:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E3W1726/?tag=pcpapi-20

As you can see, there are multiple complaints around the ********* about MSI's quality control and their support. The board itself is great, but if you ge it DOA or if something breaks on it, I'm not 100% certain what will happen when you call the support..(I have never called them, so that might just be a wrong assumption).

Unfortunately, this is/was a great deal , which apperars to be over now, because the PSU is out of stock(SeaSonic, 620W, 80+Bronze). This one is great, too.

BTW, why not a bit bigger monitor(like 23-24 inches)?

Im fine with 21 inchs thats my preferred size. So with the current cpu I chose what would you change the motherboard to?

.
The Z87-A should be in that price range(and The Z87 Fatal1ty Killer, but AFAIK, Asus's slightly more reliable then AS, atleast according to what ********* say).
But yea, whichever you choose, you won't lose anything and will get a great board.

Im not saying I won't upgrade tp 23 24 inch but I like the 21 inch one because it has a built in webcam if you can find a 23 24 inch with webcam id get that. Also what about this motherboard? Asus Maximus VI Hero ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

[uhZylon]

Seems pretty ok now.
Could maybe step down a notch on the RAM as even for Video editing half of your 16gb wont even come into play mostly.

Cool board, but if I was going to get it, I'd get some better cooler as these mentioned above(if I'm not wrong) will be good enough to OC your CPU to the 212's "normal" boundaries.
