ok thanks something to keep inmind

thanks but would their be any way to fit an ssd, say if i was use the stock cooler?

thanks , i love this community so much i only joined today and everyone is so helpful

my brother was thinking about getting a gaming rig, he was thinking about $1000 or under and an all white with rgb strips (the rgb is not needed just if it would fit in the build) what are peoples thoughts on this and what parts would you recommend? thanks

thanks for your response but why would you rather have the 4k?

assuming both will run just as well which one would you like more and why. thanks

thanks

ok, thanks so much

even cheaper than the Corsair 88R that droidbot suggested what do you think about that case?

oh, thanks after a quick google its also cheaper where i am, thanks for the help

thanks so much out of curiosity what do you stream, if you dont mind me asking?

thanks

ah ok thanks for the information

what do you guys think about the NZXT Source 210 Elite its going to be used in a budget(ish) pc thanks

ok i might just splash a bit more cash and go straight to an i5, would that be a good idea? thanks for your help

thanks so much

thanks

ah ok thanks for the help

i have done some research and i have seen that people are saying that that mb and the cpu are a great combo, i will probably change the hdd to an ssd thanks for the advice

i know that their is some increase with having 2x 4gb sticks because of duel channel but is the increase worth the extra 10 bucks it would cost me to get 2x 4gb thanks for the help

Thanks
