What kind of dollars are you using?
Is a copy of Windows or any peripherals needed?
 
This belongs in the New Builds and Planning section. I'm moving the thread.
Please post in the correct sub-forum in the future--the Troubleshooting section is for.. troubleshooting.

Do you already have a salvageable system? If so, what can you salvage? You can make $800 into a beast, depending on what you have and if you plan it right.

This. I don't think I could put together something better. (It's also because I am incredibly lazy and never feel like putting together new builds!)

Follow the topics you create using the "Follow" button in the top right corner!

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!
