Do you really need a build or just want to see what a 2k build looks like?

 

Edit: Fancy yourself http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/35226-the-ltt-build-off-thread-no-building-required/

 

Well, I will be building a 2K-ish build fairly soon, but i wanted to see what would others do with that money. (basically, to use your creativity)
