hi guys i'm kinda new to custom pc and i would like to get your feedback regarding this pc tt i'm trying to build. I'm a big fan of yellow and would like my pc to have a black/yellow theme.

so, here it goes.

Usage - Light gaming, music, surfing the net etc. Not intending to do graphics rendering or adobe CS etc...


Processor- Intel Core i5 4570

Mobo - ASRock Z87 OC Formula ~622 (w/ processor)

GFX - Gigabyte GTX 760 2GB Windforce OC ~409

RAM - Avexir Blitz series Z87 OC Formula 4GBx2 (no idea where to get this)

HD - Crucial M500 120GB SSD ~139
HDD 1TB Storage ~85

Case - Deep Cool TSR Black USB 3.0 Casing ~65

Power Supply - CM 520W Silent Pro M2 ~105

Minus the ram price total is 1425. Will be reusing my LG DVD drive and have yet to factor in cost of fans. Will not be using liquid cooling and tbh am not intending to do overclocking in the near future (flame shield on).

any feedback is welcome :)

hi your mobo is a Z series which is meant for overclocking and your processor is a Non-k series which does not allows overclocking. if you are not overclocking then go for a b85 board... if really want yellow maybe can consider Asus b85 pro that one got yellow sorry not sure which other boards got yellow. Gfx card can consider powercolor 280x priced at $404 performance at a gtx 770. for Ram choose the one that you like based on its designed (no performance difference only price and design), but do note to choose a Ram with 1600mhz and not any higher as there is also no performance difference.
HDD: WD blue 1tb should be around $75. Casing Sharkoon T28 or any casing that is of your design preference, do note to choose a casing that is for ATX not a MATX or ITX mobo. juding from your Case pricing i think its a Matx and your mobo is an ATX form. Powersupply: Superflower HX600w Dont ask why is just one of the best priced and performance psu in market now.

oh btw forgot to insert the pricing and stuffs. Quoted from Mynextcom but if get from tradepac can get at a better price. With your budget still can throw in an ssd for faster loading speed.
