Multi-purpose gaming PC build?




Games and


Hi.

Later in the summer, I'm building a PC for multiple demanding functions. I will be doing powerful gaming, and a lot of programming, recording gameplay, and uploading to youtube. I'm doing this all on one monitor, so i came up this this configuration:

Intel Core i5-4670K Processor: http://amzn.to/ZlLfbh
(i7 would be too much)


Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H Motherboard:

(Not sure if this is final)
EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Graphics Card:

8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 Memory (supports up to 32

gigs, may get up to 16):

model because it has surround sound as opposed to

stereo sound, which i really like, and it has a

wireless option):


LG Electronics W2363D-PU 23 inch Widescreen 70000:1 3ms DVI(HDCP)/2HDMI LED LCD Monitor w/ Speaker (Black):
NOT COMPLETELY SURE IF THIS CAN CONNECT TO MY MOTHERBOARD, PLEASE CONFIRM

Total: $2320.30



My budget is $25k. Do you think this is a good build? (I'm also going to be adding a network SWITCH, and im not completely sure what that is, and i already have an antivirus) Have i forgotten anything else i need?
My budget is 2.5k, not 25k lol



Answer
you must mean 2.5k. But your build is great for gaming. But I would recommend going to www.pcpartpicker.com it's easier to pick out pc components.

Multi Monitor Questions?







First of all, I have a Nvidia GeForce Gt 220 card in my computer. The Nvidia website lists this card as supporting Multi Monitors, and the card itself has a VGA port, a DVI port (which I'm currently using for my single monitor) and an HDMI port. I have a fairly new HP PC with a 2.5 ghz quad core processor. So here is my question.

On the Nvidia website, it lists the maximum resolution that my graphics card can achieve as 2560x1600. Currently, I have the card displaying at 1920x1080 on my single monitor via DVI. If I added another display by wiring the display to the hdmi port (that will work, right?) and want to extend my desktop to that display, what are my limitations resolution-wise? Can I run both screens in extended desktop mode at 1080p? Is there any limit to how detailed the second monitor resolution can be (besides the monitor's own resolution limitation)?

Also, assuming that works, what are the limitations I have as far as graphical power on each screen? Could I, say, watch a DVD on one screen and play a somewhat demanding game on the other? Could I watch two movies in 1080p at the same time on each screen? I just don't understand what my limiting factors are, I guess.



Answer
The only port on your GT220 that can do 2560x1600 is the DVI port. The VGA and HDMI ports are NOT capable of that.

The HDMI port is restricted to 1920x1200 maximum (HDMI uses a single-link DVI video signal).

The VGA port's maximum is 2048x1536.

Also, you CANNOT use all three ports at once. The GT220 can only support 2 monitors at a time.

When running extended desktop mode, each monitor can run at its own native resolution, as long as the port you have it plugged into can handle that native resolution.
