Currently rig is on right side>>>

PSU is 5yr old and cpu+mobo is 3yr old alrdy.

Mainly used for gaming (BF3 BF4 GW2). sometimes used for fraps. Going to OC abit using MSI's OC genie. ( not a pro OC guy)

CPU i5 4670K + MSI Z87-G41 PC Mate ($457). Not much used for the extra feature from G43 and 45.

PSU: ( recommend me) 600-750watt. modular prefered. price less than $150. Not sure what brand to choose.

Hitachi 1TB 3.5inch harddisk. $82

CoolerMaster Hyper 212X PWM CPU Cooler $69.

Price taken from Fuwell.

Suggestions are very welcomed

If you arent planning to SLI then ok lo.

Cause that board i wanted to buy at first. But has no SLI capabilities except for XF.

So instead of that i got myself a G45 instead. Together with the red theme im going for.
