  • PSU + Cables will work for the parts you have listed. You may need to buy a better PSU if you plan on buying additional video cards.

Do you think that 4gb will be enough?

 

Oh, I didn't even see that. I highly recommend getting 2 4GB sticks of RAM. Not 1 8GB Stick, I recommend 2 4GB sticks.

 

Something about computers that some people don't realize, it's always stronger to split things up.

 

2 medium graphics cards is generally better than 1 high graphic card

 

2 Hard Drives is better than 1 Hard Drive (RAID) 

 

And here, 2 Sticks of RAM is better than 1 Stick of RAM.

 

Also, on the MOBO if you don't know, you will put them both in the Black Slots. Not one blue, one black. Not both blue, both black. 

 

Because do it wrong, it defeats the purpose of buying 2 4GB sticks.

Thanks for telling me that. I never knew that. And if I may ask, why not the blue ports on the MOBO?

Well actually you could do both Blue, but generally you do the two sides farthest away. I currently have forgotten the reason, but I looked down through my case and they are on the 2 and 4 slots of 1 2 3 4. I don't think you'd notice a difference, but I do recall being told somewhere to do that.

Corsair is expensive. Is there any other brand you recommend I should get?

Not too sure about brands, I personally love Corsair. But I think G.Skill is a good one (I had bad problems with them though) and I forgot the other brands.

 

Any 4GB x 2 DDR3 RAM should work though.

Can you go on Newegg and look up Crucial 8gb (2x4gb). It will be the one for $59.

Great just what I was hoping. Hey, thanks for all the help you have given me. It really has had a huge impact on what I should buy or not. When I get the computer up and running, I will PM you and maybe we can play some LCPDFR. So keep your eye out on your messages. Also if it ok with you can I contact you with any other computer questions I have?

 

Thanks,

GtaPoliceWinthrop
