Current Build
Case: Fractal Design Define R5 (Purchased)
CPU + Mobo: ? i6500 + ? Mobo - still deciding on brand and B150 or H170 [if u need more features and upgrade get H170 else B150]
Ram: DDR4 kingston 8gb ram x 1
where is the best place to get this? SLS? $47 at pcthemes
also selling a G.SKill 2400mhz cl15 8gb for 50 bucks, whats the difference?
wont the speed be locked at 2133 anyway? [I would say not much differences just a few timing faster(base on review depends on ur usage), but u will need to check if the board can support that timing or not.]
GPU: ? Nvidia 1070 - still waiting
PSU: Superflower Leadex 550W Silver (Purchased)
SSD: Samsung EVO 850 500gb (Purchased)
HDD: Recommendation for a 2 TB drive? WD blue 2TB is $110, noticed that the WD blue 1TB is named different in pcthemes price list. (1tb blue 64mb sata3 VS 2tb blue 5400rpm) any difference? or just diff storage size? will prefer to get larger then 1 tb, fills up fast. [if it just for normal storage 2TB 5400rpm is more than enough. but if speed, den just get HGST or Toshiba both running at 7200rpm]
OS: Still wondering on this, how legit is qoo10 / reddit? do you get the physical cd and etc or what? but you can only use it on 1 com i heard?
if i do a reformat and fresh install, what happens then?
[Depends on the seller, but most of the time they just email u the cd key codes, and if they are OEM den u can only use it on the same mobo but not different PC. if u do that u can still reuse it]
thanks all for the help so far! rly appreciate it. 1st self built diy com btw
