New Puget Serenity inspired build
Posted: Sat Apr 16, 2011 4:22 pm
I'm thinking of buying the following:
2600K
p8p67 pro
2x4gb kingston valueram
Gigabyte hd5750 passive
2 x WD20EARS for data and backup
160GB Intel 320 SSD
p183 v3 with scythe slipstreams 800rpm
antec cp850 psu
gelid tranquillo heatsink with scythe PWM
Windows 7 pro
some asus dvd burner
Most of the time it will be used for Office/mail stuff but I will also use it as a DAW, some adobe progs (ps and flash) and some gaming. I just want a very snappy and reliable computer. Does it seem like a balanced build for that purpose? The reason I'm going with the 2600K is that it should be much better for DAWs.
I'm not sure if there are some more reliable hds than the WD drives?
Also, am I right the 5750 is the fastest passive video card?
Thanks
