1. Get an FX-8320. Saves you over $120 right there.

2. Try getting an i5 or a Xeon with the money saved if you don't want the 8320.

3. Get a 290X or a 390.

4. What kind of office computer are you running? Why do you need two Red drives?

Top kek. That is what I have in my system. If I had my PC at work I don't see how I could get shit done.  :D

AMD cards are very good, by the way.

When i started building this, i did not set a budget for myself.. 
I just started getting the hardware from business partners, that i have deals with. 

I spent 1400€ on the rig. (Keep in mind i get special discounts)

Budget excluding OS, Peripherals and Monitor please!

Definitely get an Intel based rig.

 

They are best imo for office use and Gaming.

I put in the two Red drives because i didn't need them on my file server, so they were just laying in the box they got shipped with and this computer has to run for 24/7, so i thought why not.

Technically, 280x in crossfire is more powerful than say a 970. But you might as well get newer technology. I recommend a 390.

But perfect scaling doesn't exist and Crossfire or SLI is NOT ideal.
