Hey, my budget is $2000, My aim to use this for is content creation like video editing, Photoshop, and 3D rendering. I also will be playing games like Minecraft, GTA V, Titanfall, Call of Duty, League of Legends, Garry's Mod, and many other steam games on this pc, too. Thanks!

CPU: Intel Core I74790k

Hi mate, okay there's a couple of things we need to sort out first.

They are as follows:

• Follow your thread - This means we don't have to quote you.

• Read through this - http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

Those two things will help us out a lot. :)

ON A 7 MONTH BREAK FROM THESE LTT FORUMS. WILL BE BACK ON NOVEMBER 5th.

This is what I would go with, brought the price down a little bit and may perform a slightly better with the 2x dual channel ram for things you're working on.

Alright, that's quite helpful. The reason, though, why I asked you to follow this thread of yours is so that when anyone comments you'll get notified. Unless you don't wanna get notified, in which case don't bother. :P

@AlwaysFSX, is the Phanteks Enthoo Luxe the new popular kid on the block? It seems to be mentioned quite a lot and recommended, just like the NZXT H440 was so many months ago. :D

Oh my god it's worse than when the Define R4 came about.

 

I'm sticking to my 410 and being done with shopping unless I need a second system.

There's a website called PCPartPicker.com, it has a layout where you can pick and choose compatible parts to build a system. It lists it all together, then in the top right you click "Export," press the BBCode radial button, cut and paste the text in the box.
