    Tearspacer got a reaction from m0k in Not a real problem but just curious of why   
    It's because the servers that do the speed tests aren't fast enough. Your internet is faster then theirs. That's why that will happen

    People who don't run businesses often say this as though it's some kind of magical free pass to get stuff
     
    You still have to earn the money.
     
    The only difference is that you don't have to pay INCOME TAX on the money you earned that you spent on it.
     
    Also, not everything can be written off immediately. Equipment and construction - anything that you'll be using for several years is never fully written off. You write a chunk of it off the first year, then a chunk more the second year, etc etc etc, but you never get to write off the full value.

    Don't imagine "writing things off" means you don't have to earn the money to pay for them

    Like others have suggested, get a 1070/1080 instead of two 970s. You also need to put DDR4 RAM in your build, DDR3 will not work. Additionally, I'd suggest getting an EVGA 650/750 GS or G2 PSU rather than a CX750M. Corsair's lower end PSUs are a intended for entry-level builds rather than high-end ones. Plus you get a fully modular PSU rather than a semi-modular one which makes cable management easier, IMO.
     
    As for motherboard, go with something that has the features you're looking for (WiFi, Bluetooth, lots of USB ports, USB-C, etc.) from a good brand such as MSI, ASUS or Gigabyte. Obviously they are not the only MB manufacturers that are reputable, I just listed a few to get you started.

    Are you going to overclock the CPU? If so get the i7 6700K.

    Tearspacer reacted to Trey222 in $1,500 for a windows gaming computer okay?   
    Nobody here realizes how cheap the E5 2670 is. I am running one right now and it is just fine for gaming AAA games on Ultra at 60FPS on 1080p when paired with the R9 390.  You also may be able to get a slight boost from raiaing the base clock of the CPU in the BIOS. I was able to get to run at 3.5 GHz while gaming. In conclusion the E5 2670 may not be the best gaming CPU but it will do just fine.
     
    P.S. That rig above is a little overpriced, but not by much.

    I would just make sure to keep the same sizes in the same colored slots.
     
    or check motherboard manual to make sure same kits are on the same channel
