With Ivy Bridge coming out soon I'm getting ready for a new build.
I probably won't use all of the hardware I have at the moment, except for my RAM, graphics card, SSD and HD.
The reason for this is because I will try to sell my entire case with all my current hardware in it ( will put my old ram, videocard and HD back ), and if something is missing some people might not want to buy it and I won't get rid of my current stuff
Anyways, I was thinking of something like this:
Case: Thermaltake Chaser MK-I and Cooler Master 200MM Megaflow case fan x2 to complete it
Motherboard: MSI z77a GD55
CPU: Intel Ivy Bridge i5 3570k (because it resembles the 2500k but with better performance and power usage )
CPU Cooler?: Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B
PSU: Corsair HX650W
From my current pc I will use my MSI GTX560ti, Kingston HyperX 8GB RAM, Intel 120GB SSD and Harddisk.
My questions:
- Does anyone know if those CM Megaflow fans are for Coolermaster cases only, or if they will fit in the TT case as well?
- Is a 650W PSU too much? This looks like a silent one, it's from a brand I'm familiar with, and it's modular, which is a great plus for me as well.
- A lot of people recommend the Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B , but it still looks like it has an output of 40 decibel, which is quite a lot ( imo ), does anyone know of a more silent one? I'm probably not going to OC a whole lot, just a bit more GHz
Any helpful comment is very much appreciated
