Summer 2015 Build!

Hey guys!

I was planning to build a pc in the next few days.  This is what i have so far. http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/qGmTTW

Things to keep in note, I already have a 1tb hard drive, and i need that wifi card for another pc at home so i can move the modem/router to my room.

Do you have any advice on different parts that I could choose?  I'm not sure about the motherboard.

It would be great if any one could create a pcpartpicker list based off of mine.

Try to keep it under $1900

I live in Canada so please select that on the pcpartpicker site!

 

Good Luck!

Why do you need a 150 dollar cpu cooler when on budget?

 

also i'd go for either GTX 970 or 980 Ti.

GTX 980 is not great value compared to 970 & 980 Ti

Maybe try to find deals on the motherboard, cooler, etc if you can settle for something a bit lower for a higher end GPU? Like how ZetZet recommended the 980 Ti, also hopefully this is a setup for 1080p or 1440p gaming, not 4k.

Ok I have an update.  I would like to have the i7-4790k, aio water cooling and either the Next Noctis 450 or Phanteks Enthoo Luxe.  I can actually stretch to under $2000 cad. Here is the new template http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/NXbMYJ
