Best PC specifications via PCSPECIALIST

Would the specs I've got in my earlier post run rf2 well with streaming? And as I have no experience with building pcs is there any site which can guide me on how to do that?

 

What streaming are you referring to?

http://www.google.co.uk/webhp?nord=1#nord=1&q=build+a+pc+guide

Read up and watch as many as you can to get the full picture before getting started.

…and many, many more.

Btw, don't worry about having to apply thermal past to the cpu, the stock intel coolers come with thermal paste already applied to the cpu cooler so you just have to mount the cooler onto the motherboard.

 

I'm talking about streaming with OBS or XSplit

 

http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-TG-...8&qid=1406743448&sr=8-1&keywords=network+card May need this as well, obviously ill need access to the internet... Will probably swap the fan for this as the case has a built in fan

 

No need to, today all mainboards have an onboard LAN adapter.

 

The motherboard will connect to the Internet. Also, you might want to have a front fan pulling in fresh air. I have two fans pulling, one pushing out.

 

I will probably buy the fan, I know the case has a fan built in but just for extra cooling. Now Would the specs I've proposed in my earlier post run rf2 well with streaming in OBS and XSplit?

 

Doesn´t really matter because you won´t get anything better for the money!
So: get it or leave it!

 

I'd rather have more cores for streaming, honestly, but everyone here will tell you to buy Intel.

inb4 AMD is toy for noobz, INtel allPrO

 

I have a quad core in the specs

 

Cool. Feeling confident about that first build?

 

I still rather CM hyper or something just to give it that better rise and fall.

Case I spec that you seem to like okay the PSU mounts fan down, you have windforce video cooling, stock Quad so with a cheap cooler ( they have own 120mm fan) the stock single rear 120mm will do the job.

Check out the fan combos you can run for a elcheapo case lol

I still like the MSi Z97 as it is ATX motherboard or get a simliar H97 ATX ( H97 will have bios updates to overclock K processors ) or even as suggested a B85

I would not worry about upgrade path too much, still no reason with the build as is you cannot "drop in" a Haswell "K" , Hydro cooling and overclock at a later date.

Like a few said you really only need a B85 .........the reason I put the Z97 with the a dual core is that 3460 and 4460 are 5th Generation Haswell refresh.

I could have specced the PC mate H97 but it was only a few dollars cheaper I think.

 

Most likely yes. That's a pretty powerful machine you're looking to pick up.

 

I'll probably order this PC I'm around 2 weeks time (I'm going on holiday on Saturday for a week and I don't really want to order it now cos some components might arrive while were on holiday) but before I can do that I need to check the compatibility of each of these parts, whether they are compatible with each other, is there anywhere where I can do that?

 

There are no issues whatsoever.

 

I know DurgeDriven checked it off but I also went through it just to get another set of eyes on it. Everything looks good to me!

 

Whilst we would not have intentionally or carelessly advised you on parts that are not compatible, it is very good that you're taking the initiative to check over everything yourself as well. However, there is no short cut in checking whether components are compatible, this comes from doing the leg work of research (reading pc building tutorials,etc, to attain key bits of information here and there) to grow your knowledge base and experience on pc's in general. It's really not difficult, just requires that you do some homework but it does require that you actually do your homework.

The alternative is that you take a chance and trust us, buy the parts and build it and should you need another pc in the future, if you've still not done your homework by then you'll be reliant on others once again. It's no problem to ask for advice if you just want something quick and fast but you'll have to trust the advisors.

 

Socket matches CPU and MB - Check
DDR3 RAM - Check
PSU enough for GPU - Check
Case big enough for GPU and ATX - Check
Lack of SSD - Check

All good.

 

Found a good PC-building-toturial on youtube!!

How is the bulding going Hamiltonfan?

 

lol



Hope me makes a thread first................
