Help me Build a new Desktop Computer

This is what I currently have in mind.
I want to overclock it up to 4.0Ghz minimum Let me know what you guys think and if I need to change anything.
PC would mostly be used in 3D Modeling, not gaming.

Woah, some of those prices are QUITE high. WOW!!

Try www.newegg.com itll lower those prices ALOT.

Now, Id suggest going with 8-8-8-24 1600mhz RAM, or maybe 9-9-9-27 2000mhz if you want more than 4ghz (if you want more than a 200mhz bclock). Also, that cooler wont cut it. Go with a Megalehems, Noctua, H50, or something of the likes, ESPECIALLY trying to run 4ghz plus on air w/ a 920. Other than that, looks pretty good.'

If you want to game, Id definitely suggest atleast a 5770/GTX260, with a 5850 being a much better option but you said you didnt need

Im in Canada. Prices in US are cheaper I know.


So Switching Ram to this

According to this the Mugen 2 is pretty good better than the Noctua

Yeah. Thats a joke review, with somehow skewed results. No way The Mugen is topping those coolers by that much, not gonna happen (no offense to yours).

Also, the V8 coolermaster cant keep up with some of those coolers (like the Megalehems), yet it does????

750W is a waste of money.

500W will work just fine.

Good Enough?

Recommendations on a good videocard? I just need two DVI Ports

More than enough.

Or something like this -

Even a 400W will probably do, but I would play safe and get 500W. Anything above is just throwing money down the drain. A bigger power supply won't make your computer run any faster.

For video card, if you dont think youll game much, get a lower end 5xxx series ATI. That way, youll have DX11 IF needed. If you wont need DX11 and want to save some money, go with a 4850 maybe or a GTX 240/250 like you said before.

Go to shopbot.ca and use it for price match. Also the Core i7 930 is cheaper than the 920 at NCIX.
