Hi everyone!
It's been 10 years since I have done a build so I would love some input.
My builds requirements:
1. I need to replace my old 2009 iMac. (staying with IOS, Hackintosh)
2. The computer will be used primarily for basic video editing, music production and to play WoW on.
3. My budget is about $1400 before shipping. (I am sure it will cost more, it always does)
4. It needs to be relatively quiet
5. I would like it to look custom but not break the bank.
I already have:
1. Fractal Arc Mini R2
2. Duel Corsair 120mm Quiet Edition intake fans
3. Duel Corsair 120mm SP Quiet Edition fans for a radiator.
4. Corsair CX750M power supply
What I am planning to buy: (needs to be Mac compatible)
1. Cooler Master Glacer 240L
2. Gigabyte Z87 LGA 1150 2 Way SLI mATX Motherboard
3. Intel Core i5-4670K Quad-Core Desktop Processor 3.4 GHZ 6 MB Cache
4. Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800)
5. EVGA GeForce GTX760 SuperClocked w/EVGA ACX Cooler 2GB GDDR5 256bit
6. TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 Dual Band Wireless N900 PCI Express Adapter
7. Blu-ray drive
8. Fan controller
9. GPU cooling block?
10. 2 - 22" monitors
11. Clear tubing with colored coolant and a small reservoir.
12. SanDisk Extreme SSD 240 GB SATA 6.0 Gb-s 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive,(for IOS) + (another SSD xxGB for storage)
So do you guys think this build will satisfy my needs graphics wise, or would you recommend another card under $300? To keep the fan noise down should I add the GPU block into the system? It seems like it will make a huge difference... My thoughts are to keep the intake and radiator fans at the lowest settings possible. I am not planning to over clock the system so I am hoping its doable...
