Hey guys, my part list for my new build its almost complete all that's left is choosing a graphics card. I'm planning to game at 1080p 120Hz all current games. If you can make that the gpu matches the overall pc theme that would be great. Also pick something reasonable don't put a titan v. Budget should be around $1500 USD. Thanks for the help.

 

Here is the build:

do you mean 1500 for the gpu only, or different? it's a bit hard to understand for me

Total, basically around $550 USD for the gpu
