As the title said, looking to build a new PC. I have don't have a lot of experience with hardware or PC building, so i'm using a website with a online PC buildertool. I mostly play Blizzard games: WoW, D3, HotS and some SC2. I would like to be able to play wow at 2560x1440,
wich i can on my old PC but i have to lower most setting quit a bit. I would like to able to have them on ultra (I can live with having lower setting for raids, so FPS don't drop below 60). Also looking at buying a second monitor with same resolution, sometimes i have 2 wow's running at once.
I've been fiddling with builds on Alternate.nl a Dutch PC website that sell pre-made rigs. But you can also make your own.
Here is what i have come up with, i took most of it from the last Computer setup of the Month
Case: Corsair Carbide Air 540 - €145
Power Supply: Corsair RM850X - €143
CPU: i5-6600k, 3.5GHz - €259
Heatsink: Noctua NH-D15 - €90
Motherboard: ASUS Z170-A - €155
Memory: Corsair 16GB DDR4-2133 - €85
Graphics Card: GIGABYTE GV-N980G1 GAMING-4GD (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980) - €579
SSD: 2x Samsung 850 Pro, 512 GB SSD - €446
OS: Win10
Total: €1902
My budget is €2000 for just the PC, not including the new monitor.
At first i had differant memory :Corsair 16 GB DDR4-3000. But that kept giving a error message in the buildtool, saying my memory is faster than CPU can handle. I don't know if that's a issue or not. Are there any other problems, or parts i could upgrade ?
Thanks in advance.
