So... I'm thinking of building my first pc.... for gaming and homework, the sub $1500 budget range. Here is my current parts list, tell me what you would change or improve. The budget includes the monitor and a wifi adapter is needed. The parts in this list is around the specs I'd like, and stick to an nVidia GPU if you would change that please.
