Help with building a Gamingpc

Go to solution Solved by Imakuni,

Here. It's a nice sweetspot, in regards to price/performance. I changed the case because I felt like it, but you have plenty of room to pick another one.

 

One thing of note is that I removed the keyboard. For that one, go to a local store, and buy it there. Just trust me on this one, and buy it in real life. You'll thank me later.....

You should get i5-4xxx instead so you can get better GPU.

Seems solid, aside for the lack of SLI capability and the low efficiency non-modular PSU.

 

That, and a 70$ MIR,
