    Default New Build for gaming

    Hey ,

    I'm doing a build for gaming under 1500$ but I would like to go lower if possible without losing performance (removing unnecessary stuff)

    I'm living is Saudi so I may buy stuff local or order online
    Here what I got at the local shops

    i5 3550 200$
    Asus P8Z77-V Pro 250$
    2 x4GB crosier vengeance 60$
    EVEA GTX 680SC 660$
    120GB SSD crusial force GT 160$
    1TB WD 72000 90$
    Corsair 800W gaming edition 150$
    LG DVD/RW 25$
    Cool masters case 55$

    A GTX680 is overkill. the GTX 670 is 5% slower and costs $399. If you take a factory OC'd version it outperforms a stock GTX680 and is about $410-$420

    Recommended Changes:
    GTX 670
    EVGA/MSI/Gigabyte

    Asus P8Z77-V LK

    PSU: 500W-600W 80+
    Corsair/seasonic/xfx > coolermaster/antec [all these brands are recommended - however, the ones on the left are superior]
