Yes, I know 32gb is overkill I got an insane deal, my previous choice of RAM was 16gb of $150, but NewEgg had a deal for this 32gb set for $120. The $2000 price tag includes peripherals. Yes, I know the PSU is overkill, but not for 2 graphics cards . If I bought a 980ti, it'd be half the price of build. If I bought an i7, it'd just be overkill.

o/ LTT Community, I am here, cloaked in my facade, ready for my first computer build. I decided maybe 3 months ago that I would start putting together a list of parts for a new computer. I used my first computer that I ever owned for a very long time, too long probably. Back roughly in '12, my video card pooped out, albiet it wasn't that great to begin with. I was left with the onboard graphics of a very old dual core intel processor to power my gaming needs, which was barely enough to run Minecraft at the lowest possible settings, and only on old enough versions in void worlds. I was forced to use my mothers desktop workstation if I wanted to play my more preferred titles. When I got a new job a few months ago, I was finally able to buy an old $300 laptop from the pawn shop, which is just enough to run my regular titles. However, I still want more, and I want to be able to play everything title that I own, now that I have the money for it. I went through about 1.5 months of information ingestion, taking in as much information as humanly possible before embarking on my new parts list. I think I watched like 50 Tech-Tuber videos in one weekend. I started putting together my new parts list, going in knowing that I wanted an intel cpu, and the rest was just kinda added with compatability in mind. I had some computer oriented pals give me some quick tips, which saved me from getting a GTX 950 early on. I even had some input from a friend of the family (he was a member of the Silicon Image team that contributed to the HDMI cable/port) that helped me pick the right SSD and power supply. I started buying parts as they became cheap. I had not initially intended to buy an HDD until later to save some money for other parts, and I had also settled in on 16gb of RAM, but then, well, I think all I have to say is: NewEgg deals. I ended up getting 2x1tb Seagate HDD's for <$85, and 32gb of RAM for only $120. Unfortunatly, the day after I ordered the CPU and MOBO, my father gave me an ultimatum, to buy a car before finishing the computer, or move out of the house before I graduated high school. So now, I have to wait several months before buying anymore computer parts, so I can save up enough for the down payment (eye twitches). This is not going to turn out entirely terrible, because I might be able to buy my 970 after the release of the Pascal GPU's. Thats all I got though, no other silver-lining. I don't even have a power supply that I can use to try and post what I have, mobo+cpu+ram and HDD's. I have created a Google doc with a list of my currently selected parts with respect to their pricing, and whether or not I have already purchased them. I am looking for a few pointers, just to see if I screwed anything up, or if there are any better offers or better parts that can still fit within my budget. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aXH0rGkgTuLto2t_6FFR5rOj0lCBerDAtsnSCM97-EA/edit?usp=sharing I live in the US of A I have a budget of ~$2000 I want to build a future-compatable pc capable of handling all of my 1080p gaming needs. I will be running one monitor I have the necessary peripherals, but I will be looking into a new razer mouse and keyboard in the future. I need to upgrade because I need to be able to stop relying on other people just to pass the time.
