Hey guys, i just wanted to tell you about my latest purchase :)
so my old pc had an outdated 460 GTX and a i5 cpu so i wanted something new.

now i have:
Cooler Master CM Storm Stryker

Intel Core i7 4770K 3.5 GHz

MSI Z87-G45 Gaming

16GB's of DDR3 1600MHZ memory

a 120GB SSD and a 2TB normal hard disk

a NVIDIA 770GTX (2GB) from MSI

AOC G2460P monitor (24 inch)

I love the new look of my pc, the stryker is AMAZING!

Let me know what you think :)

EDIT: some people were asking about the price. this whole thing costed around 1500 euro's, according to google that's 2 039.7 U.S. dollars. i put this together my self, it was not pre-built.

EDIT: my first test was battlefield 4. the peaks were around 120 FPS and i never saw anything lower than 75 which is amazing! next goal is far cry 3 and tomb raider, but i first need to get new money ^^

EDIT: PICTURES :D

Nice rig! If I didn't spend all my money on games I could afford a good PC too. Hang on,..... xD
Minor observation: That 120GB SSD won't last long ;)

1500 euros is a lot of money. Even so, the specs are really good. Enjoy it !

I'll trade my actual pc for your outdated just to make you feel better.
My config: PIV @2.4, 1,7 DDR memory, ATI 3650 512MB Graphics Card, 120GB + 320GB IDE HD.
Sounds good ?

I dont understand why people are trying to suggest something that costs way more than they are willing to spend on something.. Besides when the 20nm cards arrive (maybe this year) than a 300$ probably will have a similar performance with that 700$ card

Got myself the 780 Ti. I'm extremely impressed with its performance. There is not one game I can't run at 50 FPS or higher on max graphics settings with max Anti-Aliasing.

well me neither haha! don't need a 780 Ti for that (yet)! in fact, i haven't found a single game yet that goes below 60. :)

Wow dude that's very similar to the PC I'd like to build! May I ask you the price of mobo and CPU? Here these parts are quite expensive :(
Also which brand of Ram did you choose?

Comment has been collapsed.

first of all my RAM is Crucial DDR3 1600MHZ
and yes these parts are very expensive, you can see the price of the cpu in the link in the topic (270+ dollars).
the motherboard is around 130 euro's which is okay. the graphic card however is around 250 - 300 euro's for the normal ones..

You're better off just using a website that allows you to make your own pc. it's way cheaper.

Thanks for the info! I found the mobo at the same price (135 euro) but the price of that CPU is 300 euro here (410 dollars) :(
Anyway enjoy your new pc! :)

I would have grabbed a larger SSD, around 240GB.

Your choices are essentially what I'd suggest for a realistic high end single GPU Intel build.

well yeah i wanted to get a bigger one but a 250GB version was more expensive of course and well i kinda started running out of money since that is almost an entire month work right there, i only had 400 euro's left for the rest of the month haha!

Nice, balanced and future-proof, I approve.
For future reference: "normal hard disk" = HDD.

NOW GO PLAY SOMETHING! ^^

Ok, the single little thing I'd change would be a bigger SSD. But I'mm glad to see you put one in the first place.
Sometimes I see people building multi-GPU configs and using a single HDD, not even a RAID 0 to say they tried. T_T

Nice! I'm sure that's going to be an awesome gaming PC. Congrats!

Mine's still doing pretty well, considering I got it in Feb 2010 (1st gen i7 CPU, Nvidia Geforce GT 430 - 2GB, 4Gb RAM). It runs the newest Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite and Assassin's Creed Black Flag pretty well on high graphics, so your monster of a PC will run everything smoothly. :)
