OK I haven't kept up with all the new stuff but a friend is asking for help. He is not "into" OCing but he may play a little later. This is pretty much strictly for gaming, BF4 for starters. Budget is max $1600.00 After a few corrections where I knew it wouldn't be a great build he sent me this.
So what do you think? If you don't like it show me what you would do with $1600.00, for these parts above only, to have the best gaming setup.
Like I said I am not up on the latest stuff but would like to hear things like.
I would get this video card over that one because faster, more effective cooler, less power, better fans, etc etc
or
This is a better CPU for the slight $ difference it is faster, OCs way higher, much more efficient, etc etc
Now I was never a fan of Rosewill and I haven't really heard many that like Windows 8 so those two I feel are areas I wasn't liking to well. But I never used Windows 8 or much Rosewill products.
Personally I like Win 7 and something like a PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk II 950W $129.99
Lets hear constructive criticism so he can get a good quality no hickup build.
Thanks
