Bear with me as I am new to [H]ard Forum, as well as building performance oriented computers.
I am currently running a 750w PSU.
with an intel h67 motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz RAM
EVGA GeForce GTX760 SuperClocked w/EVGA ACX Cooler 2GB GDDR5 256bit
i7 2600k @ 3.4Ghz w/ stock cooling
XPS 8300 case,
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I am transplanting some of the items into a new case with new components
Thermaltake Chaser MK-1 VN300M1W2N No PS Full Tower Case (Black)
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz RAM
ASUS MAXIMUS VI HERO LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
EVGA GeForce GTX760 SuperClocked w/EVGA ACX Cooler 2GB GDDR5 256bit
Intel Core i7-4770K Haswell 3.5GHz
with Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus - CPU Cooler
And I bought Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound 3.5 Grams as well as alcohol for removal
I did a lot of research on price/dependability/performance, I believe this system will run very very well with the new upgrades. I believe my old case had poor cable management as well as airflow and thus cooling. From what I have heard the sandy bridge motherboards were faulty in 2011 with Sata Ports but this does not really affect me as I am runnign 2x 1.5TB Hard drives in Raid 0.
I stream World of Warcraft, as well as League of Legends on my 15MB up 45MB down internet, which I know is not the problem. I use the program Xsplit for streaming at 1080p with 30+ FPS upload.
This uses a hell of a lot of CPU.
Any advice on what I should do setup wise, whether it is worth getting SSD's.
And my main question, will 750W PSU be enough for my system. and if not, what should I buy?
