McCut Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Hey everyone. I was planning on building a computer, mostly supported by Corsair. I just have a few compatibility questions, such as whether or not it would die instantly, overheat, or other issues which would result in a sadface. The parts I plan to buy are listed below; If so, how would they operate quality-wise? I'm planning on making a computer, and I believe I have everything sorted out, but I need some help whether a few things are compatible, and whether they would run too hot, or not perform too well. Hardware listed in no specific order; Corsair 800D / Corsair TX950 / Corsair H50 Intel Core i7 875K EVGA P55 Classified 200 HX3X12G1600C9 CMXAF2 Diamond 5870PE51G ATI Radeon HD5870 1GB Hitachi 7K1000.B 1 TB HDD ASUS DVD-E818A6T 18X DVD-ROM 2 Cooler Master R4-L2R-20AC-GP Case Fans Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) Razer RZ04-00270100-R3U1 Carcharias Gaming Headset Razer RZ03-00180100-R3U1 Lycosa Gaming Keyboard Razer Lachesis Banshee Blue Gaming Mouse Razer Destructor Pro Gaming Mouse Pad with Case ASUS MS238H 23" Ultra ULT40123 MD3 Media Dashboard Fan Controller Ultra ULT31572 10 Outlet Surge Protector And that's all. The total price is $2,678.49. That includes shipping, with taxes. If you find anything wrong or have any suggestions, please post. This is my first attempt at building a computer :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCut Posted October 3, 2010 Author Share Posted October 3, 2010 I'd also be willing to upgrade to XFX Radeon HD 5970 Black Edition2GB as well, if no one thinks I'd overheat with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackrat Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 In my personal experience TigerDirect is not a company that I would conduct business with, especially when spending thousands of dollars on PC hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCut Posted October 3, 2010 Author Share Posted October 3, 2010 Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of NewEgg, but they don't have some stuff I need, and I don't want to have to go to three different places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Wouldn't using a memory kit meant for a triple channel system on a dual channel system. As for the headset, Corsair makes one now: Corsair CA-HS1 Gaming Audio Series HS1 USB Gaming Headset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be using those instead :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
