Looks pretty good. Should be able to run some badass games at high FPS. 

[Supreme]

Looks very nice    I'd say go for it

[Shinky]

300 watt power supply is enough

[Dr_dog]

300 watt power supply is enough

is not enough.
That GPU is probably taking already 100W of it + a 95/85W TDP CPU
You want to go with overkill instead of having the PSU working at 90% capacity which will break it quicker.
I tend to buy 700W PSUs because those has room to expand incase you want to throw like another high end graphics card and some drives.

Looks pretty solid build. Remember, you can never have too much wattages in your PSU

If you want to waste alot of cash in that keyboard and mouse your going in the correct way, but i wont recommend it

the rest its ok by me

Terrorista:
i do want to spend becouse all my equiptment i have atm its from 2008 and i did some mistakes by throwing cash on new GPU+RAM+PSU+COOLER.

and now i just want all new and to keep it for longer and not to do upgrades at all.

Dr.Dog:u have any good PSU brands that u can recommend becouse i watched on this one

FSP Aurum Au-700 700W Gold +90.

which btw its 121.8 Euro's.



and i dont have any clue abaut motherboards so recommend me on sth good pls...

or this is good? couse PSU's and MB's not my thing really.

thx in advance

[Dr_dog]

Never heard of Auroum PSUs.. I dont think that would be reliable. Looks like they spent more time on the looks of the power supply than the electrical itself..

I been buying several Nexus branded PSUs (Solid as hell, been running 6 years in 24/7 use without breakdowns so far)
Nexus RX8500 (850W) was 112€ last time i checked.
Coolermaster makes reliable PSUs too.
If you can get your hands on acbel braned PSUs (Heavy as fuck but they are around 500W so not maybe best for gaming machines) Those things weight like 3Kg and has incredebly good components. Had one running in server that is 9 years old now. Still functions without need to repair.
Corsair makes good ones too.

So Nexus, Coolermaster or Corsair really those are solid power supplies that should not fail in first 5 years of service. Probably will outlast rest of your hardware..

[JOKER]

they dont have thad brands most they have its:

SilverStone.

Thermeltake.

FSP.

Seasonic.

[Dr_dog]

Go with Silverstone or Thermaltake then those last 2 ones sounds like some plastic boxes with made-in-china capacitors that blows on first brown out

lol thats exacly my thoughts.

600W its good too?

[Dr_dog]

Last thing is you want some unknown unreliable cheap PSU cook out your motherboard, frying your CPU and overvolting your RAM after only few weeks since being built. Many people do the mistake that they go with the cheapest power supply. It should be the least thing you cheap on. Hard drives are acceptable as well as ram but power supply that will make sure everything gets the power. but if it fails it will also destroy them easily.

oki...

600W are good?? or i need atlist 700W?

[Dr_dog]

If you want to ultimately make room for upgrades and higher power graphic cards. I suggest going with 700W or more. 600W should do fine

if i buy 600W its not going to do any troubles??

becouse atm im running with 520W on GTX 550 TI and damn after half an hour at IV my pc is like 100 degrees and its all come from the supply+GPU

[Dr_dog]

Wow sounds like there is going to be failure in soon..
PSU should not be like 100C it could be near overloading the PSU.
According to Nvidia the GTX 550 TI will need atleast 400W PSU.. Add to that a CPU which is usally 95W and misc peripherals (HDD 10-20W, case fans etc)
700W would not do anything bad.

[JOKER]

forget abaut that PC...

I builded another PC this time i think its got preety good (atlist for my opionion)

http://startpc.co.il/media/build/viewBuild.php?uid=52171e94368f0

have a look.

[Dr_dog]

Looks pretty good. No hard drive? you got that yourself?

[JOKER]

Damn forgot the HDD.. gonna add 1TB

what brand u recommend?

EDIT:

here is an updated list(specs)

http://startpc.co.il/media/build/viewBuild.php?uid=521746386d112

1189 Euros.

[TheSandman]

Damn forgot the HDD.. gonna add 1TB

what brand u recommend?

Western digital. Im not sure about seagate or toshiba.

[Dr_dog]

In matter of fact. one seagate died just this morning on me.. was a new 1.5TB one..
Go with WD. its known for reliability and strong life.

1TB should be enough for a while in normal people's use. (for me not )
That looks pretty good build now.

FSP and Seasonic is plastic box with made in china caps?
Cmon, google something about powersupplies. This two is quality power supplys, and in list of best PSUs.


PS: E8400 still had enough power to run everything, especially if its overclocked (E8400 is good overclocker). And graphic card you have is also good.

[JOKER]

abecoda@ i know that they are good but atm i have some ZEUS PSU and its overheating the whole system...

and all i did overclocked the E8400 and im not saying its shitty or sth
but i do want to experience with some new shit.

[Dr_dog]

You might want to change that zeus before it surges your whole system while having failure.


@abeceda
Reason im not trusting FSP because their PSUs found in OEM machines been pretty low quality.
I did infact take a look at the FSP more deeper..

[Viper]

I got seagate and its fine all my hdd's are seagate

Actually if you look here [size=78%]http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/psu_manufacturers[/size]
Seasonic is the manufacturer of several corsair psu's and other brand of psu's. Same with FSP.
