Well, let's put it this way:

"Futureproof" * means buying flagship products now.

Flagship products don't go well with a $1,200 budget.

 

*assuming you believe in futureproof, which I do not.

No such thing as futureproof however you are correct about buying flagship products for that price I can get you a 8core processor a case and possibly a psu. My upcoming build is rated at 4.5k usd and almost half of that is the x99 platform which includes motherboard, processor, and ram for right around 2k. So not on a 1,200 dollar budget.

If you've previously won the build off please pm me so we can get something worked out.
