Okee on a serious note, I wanted it for less than 1300$ and yeh theres things to be edited and changed. But 4670k and 770 will perform nicely I dearly hope

yes. Despite what some people claim (without actual proof), the 3570k actually performs much better than an 8320. 8320 is better for lower end graphics card with which it doesn't bottleneck the GPU

 

If you don't plan on overclocking the CPU however you could save quite a bit of money (170$ 200$) by getting an i5-4440 and using the stock intel cooler (which isn't actually bad by any means unless you overclock with it) as well as getting an H87 motherboard. The performance difference would be negligible because if you don't OC, a 4670k performs about the same as a 4440. If you want liquid cooling because it looks cool and all that, then by all means. It's just that personally I don't see the big commotion about overclocking when I could spend all that money on a better GPU etc..

Opinions pls :D

I would change the PSU to the 650W evga supernova. It'll still be way above your actual wattage use and I believe it was selling for 69$ or something. Otherwise if it's selling for more then ask me and I'll recommend some PSUs for you.

 

The sound card is also absolutely unecessary if not worse because these days the onboard audio is actually better than these low end sound cards. That doesn't mean that I recommend high end soundcards either however because those are a huge waste of money. If you want a better dac or amp just buy an external one. Anybody who is actually serious about audio will tell you that.

the 3570K? think you mean 4670k unless your suggesting getting 1155 which is a whole different story

you do know you can just share by clicking on "Plain Text" on pc part picker then just copy pasting that on LTT. It makes the job easier for us because we can just edit your pc part picker build instead of having to make a whole different one if we are suggesting something else.

why do you need a network card?

EDIT: Forgot this pic had language, apologies.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

If you won't SLI or go higher than 1080p, 2GB is what you need.

 

throw away the sound card and network card.

 

I can draw a picture of them on little pieces of card board for you if you'd like, quite cheap. You can tape them to your PCIe slots and they should have a similar if not better effect on your computing experience. 

 

Not to mention probably aesthetically superior.

I don't think you will ever need a 4gb 770. Especially for 1080p, so no

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.
