I decided it finally time to build a HTPC
Requirement/ What I plan to do with it.
Playing FPS (Battlefield 3, Arma series, GTA 4, COD Series)
Blu-ray movies and other media stored on network storage.
Quieter the better but not a vital requirement....
Software plan to use:
Windows 7 64bit (Already Have)
Windows Media Center or XBMC
Hardware:
Case: Silverstone LC13B-E
Power Supply: SeaSonic X Series X650 Gold
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z68A-D3H-B3
CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K
Memory: G.SKILL Sniper 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3
Video Card: XFX HD-695X-CDFC Radeon HD 6950
My TV/(Monitor) is a Samsung 37" Spec for PC resolution is 1920 x 1060 @ 60Hz
SSD: Intel 320 Series SSDSA2CW120G3K5 120GB (OS & Games)
Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar Black WDBAAZ0020HNC-NRSN 2TB (Media & Other Junk)
Keyboard and mouse recommendations?? (Will be playing game on my bed using some form of a book as mouse pad )
Mostly took recommendation from other threads of what people recommended to them.
So what you all think of my build? Will this last me awhile as far as future proofing?
Budget roughly 1400.
Thank You In Advance!!!
