none of your newegg links work

 

[Wildcard36qs]

You saying $250 for just motherboard or whole build?

 

[beers]

$250?

Here:

Personally I would buy a lesser board and use the money to pump up other components
(hex core, SSD, etc).

 

[eddie0914]

kk well its not like im trying to pay $250 for a motherboard anything that works for gaming is what i would like to be recommended. and yes if you know what i need exactly to make this better plz let me know

 

[spanielcheckers]

Well first off, you're not building a computer for $250 period. Good-quality components are expensive, especially those that can handle gaming. I suggest saving until you're in the $500 range, at least.

EDIT: One of those links works, and it's to a 465. Just get a 460.

 

[eddie0914]

ok well the links should work now i hope =( let me know if they dont ill just post what they are instead of trying to get the links to work

 

[eddie0914]

i already have about $1000 atm with all the links i posted so if you guys could let me know what i need that would be great. $250 is the max im willing to spend on a mobo

I would go with this board I have it myself and I like it plus its on sale

kk thx ill look into that one anyone else ?? besides motherboards does anyone have anything else to reccomend to get???

 

[codejunki]

Looks pretty good! Get yourself a couple of good fans to help with the case airflow, any fan with high CFM will work, maybe someone can recommend a couple of good fans, i only know of good fans that excel in radiators

Get a lesser PSU.

850W is overkill for this system.

Get something like an Antec TruePower New 550.
That will handle your system well with plenty of headroom.
Even a Seasonic SS-400ET will do.

Get a different case, for $100 you can do a lot better than a rosewill. CoolerMaster 690 II Advanced.

Caviar Blacks are overpriced on Newegg. Get a Samsung Spinpoint F3.

850W is indeed overkill, you'll be good with a quality 550W unit like Volvo suggested.

Don't get a 970, get a 955 instead. 300mhz isn't worth $44 (you can also overclock it to 970 speeds anyway).

Other than that, good luck with your build.

 

[SalisburySteak]

I reccomend a Samsung Spinpoint F3 cheaper and usually as fast or faster than a WD Black

[Volvo]

Also consider the Corsair VX550 if you want Corsair.
850W is way too much for that system.

 

[GMcDougal]

i would change that wd black to the samsung f3. despite what everyone is saying about your psu being overpowering, get the 850. the psu is one item you can keep for years and years as you upgrade, and who knows when you will want to do sli down the road. i would also trade out that 465 for a 460 1gb. if your going to spend 100 on a case, spend alittle more and get this

 

[MikeM231]

I would stick with the 850 if you can afford it, never know when you will want to add another GPU. or GPUs that require more power

 

[Marc-Olivier Beaudoin]

lol 250$ for a motherboard IS STUp*** OVERPRICE SHi***t .... OH wait

 

[eddie0914]

thx guys for all the help. now if anyone can could they possibly recommend me a good motherboard and a fan to keep my case cooling good. i understand that i could buy a better case for $100 but i dont know maybe im weird but i really like that case so i have no intention of getting something else for a case sorry guys

 

[Sizuke]

So you have about $1250 to build a gaming rig yea?
