It's just an online tech store, not sure if there are any shops and such. 

 

But yeh, some more detail about this upcoming build would be appreciated.

I recommend PCCaseGear if you are planning to buy online

Centre Com, PCCG, Mwave and Scorptec are all good retailers, though I find that PCCG most of the time has the lowest prices, the shipping is normally outrageous and makes it less affordable to shop at rather than other sites.

Yeah that why I choose them. I live an hour away from their warehouse so I can skip the shipping.

What do you want to be able to do with this PC? Any editing? Or just some gaming?

It'd be easier if you used the template from the stickied thread (that you should have already read), but it's not detrimental.

Again, be sure to quote the person you are replying to so that they get notified.

a little overbudget but you can get a cheaper mobo and CPU if you don't want to overclock. (btw this is the first time I've made a build in a looong time so someone please check if there are better choices.)

How bout this?

I'm sure you could get a larger SSD if you toned the 4690K to a locked chip and took the CPU cooler out, along with tinkering with some other things. But I'm not too sure if you'd definitely OC because of "If U can fit oc components such as CPU cooler and k series CPU in to budget then I will.". 

I'll go about making another which is hopefully under $1,500 with a non-K chip and larger SSD.
