Uses Gaming

 

Budget 1700

need peripherals Monitor

 

SLI yes

 

Location Jamaica

 

Then everything is nice, just:

 - Like @Shd0w2 said, you don't really need 4Gb version, just go with 290/x, it's got a lot more "bang for the buck" :D

 - Do you really need 500Gb SSD O.o You can as easily get 250 and use the rest of the money for better monitor/GPU :D

 - Also, why go with WD Black O.o I'd suggest Seagate Barracuda (WD failed me one too many times -_-)

 - For mobo try something like Asus z97 Pro, or some other good brand :D

it is a blue pc build no  red

I will never understand why people choose PC's by colour -_- You only choose your case by colour...

 

Then:

 - Downgrade that SSD to something like 120/250 Gb's, you really don't need more than that -_-

 - Go with something like WD Blue :P Because as far as i heard WD Black, while good, doesn't have good price to performance ratio...

 - And use the saved money for a better GPU (780)..

Full Black/Blue for you :3

Also noted that the new i5 4690k is already out but PCPartPicker dont have it you so I cant choose it, change it to a 4690k if you can find it.

Now about the reason I change from your build:

Mobo: I feel more comfortable with MSI's stuff then ASRock

Memory: A good pair of RAM with high speed but not expensive, and it's blue

SSD: You will probably only install OS and a very few program on the SSD, so 120GB should be more than enough. Games wont benefit much from being installed on SSD

HDD: Seagate Barracuda is cheaper than the WD Black but the quality is about the same, and divided it to 2 2TB HDD is better than 1 4TB HDD cause if you have only 1 4TB drive if it fail you will lose 4TB data, while the 2 2TB is very unlikely to fail at the same time.

GPU: 1 single powerful CPU is way better than 2 less powerful GPU run SLI. so a 780 instead of 2 770.

Case: Blue~

PSU: 600W is more than enough for this build. You only need ~750W if you goes SLI so if you do plan to goes 2 ways SLI 780 in the future then up it to a 750W

Monitor: A very good 24 inch monitor
