Great! You won't be able to run Arma 3, because all you'll get when you boot up the game will be a buttery smoothness simulator. But really, use PCPartPicker, it makes putting together a build and sharing it really easy.

 

(BTW if you have any Microcenter's near you, go there and buy your parts. They price match, so you don't have to pay for or wait for shipping)

i only use that website because its Australian run and easier for me because i live in Australia :) but when i go to make another build i will lay it out on pcpartpicker :)

I think they have an Australian PC Part Picker.

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)
