Guys, I recently came into some money. I am designing my first 110% new computer (with some exceptions) since 2006. I could use some feedback if you want to offer it.
CPU: AMD FX-9595 (This is an Octocore with each one going at 4.7 Gigs)
MB: ASUS Crosshair V
RAM: 16 GB of DDR3-1600
Vid card: ASUS Radeon R9 290 4 GB
I am keeping the same case, with 3 120 MM fans. I have 3 HDs with a total of 7 TB of HD space.
This build will cost me $1200
I am considering a few additions to it, and if you think something should be added to this gaming/server machine, speak up. No harm in suggesting ideas
Maybe ideas include
New power pack (Old one is rated 650) 750-800 Watts
Maybe a second video card to Crossfire it (Is it worth it performance wise?)
A floppy drive controller card (Yes I still have one of those)
Hope to hear back from people.
