Hi everyone.
I'm currently I'm in the process of planning for my build which I am going to start collecting parts for over the next few months (leaving the motherboard, CPU, GPU till last to let prices come down).
Here is what I have come up with:
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Punknoodle/saved/44mU
I don't want to break the bank but I'd like to be able to play Project Cars at 1080p at close to or at the highest settings - will this be able to do it?
Don't really want to go AMD based, I'm having trouble trying to find AMD motherboards at a good price that have PCI-e 3.0, regardless I prefer Intel.
Thanks for your thoughts
Edit: 3 years on and my motherboard crapped itself. Decided it was time to rebuild.
Just placed an order for an Asus Strix Z270F motherboard, Intel Core i7 7700k CPU, 16Gb DDR4 2400 ram and an EVGA 1080 SC2 icx graphics card. The 780 was struggling running my triple screens so this should sort that out.
