Help Is that PC powerful enough?

[alvarogt95]

get a HD 6950 2gb! xd
and 2500k

Why a special cooler? He is buying an Intel Ivy Bridge so don't expect any good overclocking results.

@dylankrajewski it's not demanding powerful hardware, in fact console hardware is crap.

OK..

Everything looks good, but change the H60 to a H100 series, still fits the lg1155 socket, plus instead of a 6670, get a GTX560 or sli/crossfire 2 GTX550ti's. if you want to play BO2, i suggest 8gb RAM, a 6970 or 6990, or a GTX590, and change the processor to a i7 2600k, Black ops was meant for console, so it's pretty demanding hardware wise.

Sounds like a good choice.
But nobody talks about the Power Supply. It is a very important piece. 850W with 70A recomiento you channel 12v

please dont get such clc wannabe water crap cooler, they are much louder if you want to receive the same results in case of temperature as you can get with an air cooler.

get a 212+ / 212 evo or if you like to get a top (flagship) cooler then look after the D14, the Silver Arrow or perhaps the Phanteks.
These are big but extremely powerful and almost noiseless!

i recommend pwm fans, the SA and the 2nd Revision (2011 modell) of the D14 gets delivered with very good pwm fans.

almost every cooler supports 1155 socket anyway by using various installation kits.

you dont need a sli system if you like to play the latest games on max settings either. there is no need to buy two cards or a dual graphic core card like the 590 or 6990. waste of money...

these dual core cards gets fkin hot.
just buy a cheap 6950 or 6970 (price dumped) and install an after market cooler like the alpenfhn peter. then get a custom graphic bios and voila the card gets + <30% more power. enough for upcoming games for at least 12 months.

i7 2600k <- waste of money if you only want to play games in first prior.
you are right about the 8 GB ram, i would recommend that either. but dont buy useless shit like tall ram spreaders, dont jump on this fail marketing.

thanks very much guys but LOL I'm so confused
1) Isn't a 4gb dual-channel ram good enough? Why buy 8 gb?
2) OMG GUYS this 6950 is waaayyy too expensive for my budget.
3) Why should I buy a cooler and indeed an expensive one? I am not willing to O/C this pc yet.
4) Why change the motherboard as I am not to upgrade this pc in the near future?
5) Well that GTX560 looks good and... euh... value-for-money choice. But I still can't understand why the 6770 is crap.
6)My current pc has (and plz don't be sarcastic):
intel celeron e1400(ffs it is the most rubbish cpu I have ever experienced)
4gb ram DDR2
ati radeon hd 5450
no special cooler(I would say no cooler at all)

HOWEVER I CAN STILL PLAY COD MW3 IN HIGH SETTINGS EVEN IN MULTIPLAYER WITH NO SPECIAL LAG --------->I am not willing to buy a rocket-fast pc, just a long-living pc in which I am gonna be able to play black ops , black ops 2 ofc and all the latest games without lag at high settings (well I would really love it if they were able to be played at max settings with this pc, but it's ok as I can only spend 800 euros max.)
SO PLEASE DON'T ONLY THROW SOME HARDWARE IN THE REPLIES BUT ALSO TELL ME WHAT THEIR PRICE IS AND IF I CAN AFFORD IT OVERALL WITH ALL YOUR SUGGESTED PARTS TAKING PLACE.
P.S sorry for using caps, but I wanted everyone to see this coz I'm REALLY confused
thanks

[d0h!]

why the 6770 is crap? because its basically a 5770 ....
i also posted a link that shows how bad this card is, its behind a 4890..just for example. dont expect anything from a 100 bucks card

I would use the i5 2500k and OC that use the coolermaster series coolers much better than clc.. The 6770 is real shit use the GTX460-560's the 460 runs BF3 at Max 1920x1080 at 30FPS which is it's normal rate. Or get dual 460's or if you can get a little more money 550's sli's. Upgrade your power supply!! 8+ GB RAM is actually a very smart idea. Most games now take up at least 1.5 GB of RAM. Right now my computer in idle takes up 2.4 GB of RAM so ya you need to update that. And that's pretty much my take..
(I haven't checked the part's sockets yet so ask everyone else here if it's compatiable)

got it

[blackopsguy]

OK so I shall I get a pc that looks like this?(remember: no o/c yet, no upgrades in the near future):
CPU--> Intel Core i5 2500K
MOTHERBOARD--> Gigabyte P67A D3 B3 (s1155, P67, DDR3)*
COOLER--> CoolerMaster Hyper 412S Cpu Cooler (RR-H412-13FK-R1)**
GPU--> MSI GTX 560s (PCI-Express , GDDR5 , 1 GB)
POWER SUPPLY--> Corsair Gaming Series GS600 600W PSU
RAM--> Corsair XMS3 8GB DDR3-1600 Kit

*I think this one looks pretty good.
**Is this one ok? I just can't find the ones you are suggesting...

Please confirm and I think we are done here.
P.S My midi-case should be good right? PLz don't tell me I need a full case for all this shit ^^
Thanks

Power supply really need to be upgraded 600W is barely enough to power everything?
