Hello, i have been saving up money for a VERY long time. I want to get a gaming pc. I was thinking about getting a MSI GT80 Titan SLI-009 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152706) BUUUUUUT that is almost $4,000 including all the peripherals I wanted to add......So can anyone help me come up with a build that will equal to as much as this laptop is but with better specs or is the MSI GT80 Titan my best bet? 

 

 

If so these are the peripherals i have already choosen.....Input/opinions on these would be nice :D

-Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma Headset (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826153167)

-Razer Naga Epic (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0AJ2MX1982 (BUTTONZZZZZ))

-Wacom Intuos Pro (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823100124 (I do alot of photoshop work))

-Keyboard is a ?

-Mouse pad is a ?

 

So yeah if anyone can help that would be amazing. 

                      And

       I do not care which case

       I live in the U.S. so USD is the currency

       I plan to play games from Minecraft to stuff like Battlefield

       One monitor is what i want....Maybe two if it's possible

       Budget is no more than $4000 (No More Than)

       Don't really care about 4k

if you want my opinion.. get an 800$ PC (enough for BF4 and minecraft) and get a cheap ass laptop for travel. I'm playing BF4 maxed out (50fps)  on an i5-3470 GTX760 16gb ram... So get something slightly better (i7 for instance and a 970) and you're good to go for at least 3 or 4 years (AT LEAST).. (then repeat and save a lot of money)

For $4000 you could get a high end gaming PC better than the GT80 AND STILL buy a decent thin light gaming laptop and be in budget

 

dont buy a razer headset unless you really hate your ears

there is no need for a chroma headset, you wont see the lights when its on your ears

Its a Championship not a Belt!

Best build for gaming.

The razer 7.1 chroma isn't that good a friend of mine has it and the hyperX cloud is much better, for a much lower price.

M45 is the best mouse IMO, cheap and very comfortable, with enough buttons but you can change it.

2 monitors added.

And there is even enough room for you to get your Pen and touch.

 

Tl;dr: This build = overkill and shits on every "gaming"  laptop

Why SLI 970?? didnt linus make a video about 980 vs 970 x 2?? for a lot of games one 980 is sufficient. BTW as far a i know, minecraft is manly CPU based, so no need to go SLI for that... I dont even know if BF4 supports it...

Wtf did i write.

 

I used 2-WAY SLI TITAN X not 970's they are by far more powerfull than 980's SLI and 970's SLI.

And the 4690k is more than enough to play minecraft.
