Hi people. This is my upcoming under US$1500 build though I will be using my old graphics card and getting another to SLI. Do tell me where are the weak parts and try to post a better under 1500 build here!

I7 4790K

ASUS Maximus VI hero

2 way ASUS GTX 970 strix (1 old)

H100I

Vengeance Pro 8GB DDR3-2600 RAM

Crucial MX100 128GB(for essentials and OS)

Seagate barracuda 1TB

That is a really nice build!  I would try to squeeze in a better PSU, perhaps downgrade to 4690k and upgrade the PSU and SSD to 256GB.  always check jonnyguru.com for a PSU review before you buy!
