I just wanted to post to see if I could get some information and reassurance about what I am doing, about my computer that I will be building myself (first time too).
specs:
CPU: Intel i7-3820 3.6GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost)
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2GB
Motherboard: ASUS Rampage IV Gene LGA 2011 Intel X79
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaw X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB)
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Green 750GB Intellipower 64MB Cache SATA 6.0GB/s
PSU: Rosewill Xtreme Series RX850-S-B
Cooling: Corsair H80 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
Case: NZXT Crafted Series Vulcan mATX
(The case needs to be somewhat mobile since I live 50/50 at 2 houses, and will be used for gaming)
My reassurance questions are: Will this work? Do I have the right power supply? Do I have enough wattage? Am I missing anything?
My information questions are: How well will this build run / will it run today's and 2 years (rough estimate) games on max or close to max settings? Is there anything that can be changed for increased performance with reduced price, and will still be relevant for 2+ years? Do I and/or will I be able to have enough ports for an HDMI, monitor, usb mouse, headset, webcam, and mic at the same time (if i can use them all, would I be able to add the ports)?
Please, I impor everyone to ask me questions and to critique or recommend things for the build
Thank you for your help
