Buying a fresh build next month [ need help ]

They're both almost the same price build 2 is a bit expensiver but not that much, and why with the cheapest gpu?

because the 290 and the 780 are so close that it just makes sense to take whichever is cheaper and not be a fanboy? also the rest of the build is preference so if you like both equally why not take the cheapest?

Spoiler

Doubt you can max out Far Cry 5 seeing as Far Cry 4 hasn't even been released yet  :P

The Powercolor is a nice card, but it is 43 Euro's more than the Sapphire. If they were the same price, I would go for the Powercolor, but in this case I would stick with the Sapphire.

I would rather go with an 250gb SSD. You will find yourself pretty fast at the 120gb point after installing windows/a couple of games/some software. In my opinion it is definately worth the price to install all programs on the ssd. 

 

EDIT: If you plan to do SLI later on, as your mobo name suggests, i would go with an 750w power supply to be safe. Otherwise you might have to upgrade your PSU when you want to do SLI.

I'll try to save some extra for that card ;D

I'm going to buy a second ssd later because i already have that 1 at my house, crucial m8 250gb will be fine?

 

I'm not planning on buying sli atm..
