I would like a Deathadder (the size/shape looks perfect) but they are a bit expensive. I'm just looking for some cheap peripherals to use until I can afford good ones.

The new one is only about 5-6 pounds more so I would get that if I got a Deathadder.

I'd wait until you have the money to get a 7990 rather than get the 7950 and then sell it a few weeks/months after to get the 7990 just because you want one now - it's unnecessary money wasting.

The CPU will most likely bottleneck a 7990 unless overclocked to 4.5 GHz +

Get a 64GB SSD for bootups - it does make a big difference.

It would be about 3 months down the line I sell the 7950 and I'll probably sell it to a friend for close to what I paid for it, so I may as well get the PC earlier. The PSU, modular/non modular doesnt really matter to me, getting a very roomy case.

As for the SSD, I might. Sitting on the fence, and might not have enough money.

You could pick up a RAZER Abyssus for 28-30.

Gigahertz wrote Build looks all good I wouldn't really change anything. Apart from I'd lean more towards the XFX 7950 because of the dual fan cooler.

I thought you'd want something like a M5A97 R2.0 for overclocking purposes though.

I can't recommend any peripherals as I have next to no knowledge about them.


Well the HIS one is cheaper and comes with five games, so that swayed my choice.

As for the motherboard, I'm not really going for a big overclock, maybe a couple hundred megahertz. The Hyper 212 is more for silence than cooling.
XFX offers lifetime warranty which may come in handy in the future. Also, i'd suggest getting the EVO heatsink. Will probably cool your system a lot more. You may want silence but nothing is EVER going to be completely silent.

Well not specifically silence, but it's a lot quieter than stock.

I don't think XFX offer limetime warranty on anything. Most companies don't on things other than certain RAM
