I HAVE A 2Terrabyte Hard drive sorry for not including this earlier D:

[don_svetlio]

Seems solid to me.

[Killervolt]

Looks good!

What about a hard drive?

[Andrew Storlie]

Seems like youd want to add another drive for storage, 250gb ssd will fill up really fast.

Don't need a 760T when there's a Phanteks Enthoo Luxe, thought you can get a Pro if you don't want water cooling. I recommend water cooling if you want to be using it 24/7 AND overclocking it. The 170-AR and Krait Gaming should have similar performance, but Krait complements the build color scheme more. Don't really trust Gigabyte when it comes to graphics cards, they tend to trade performance for silence/cooling which in my books isn't a very good thing. But that is more of a personal decision, you may choose whichever you like. Most of them aren't reviewed because the 300 series is still a fairly new thing.

Thanks for the detailed review

 

Yea I didn't research the gigabyte too much either, seems like you are right. I will go for either of these then? maybe you can further recommend which one? its fine if you dont

 

MSI Radeon R9 390X

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-r9390xgaming8g

 

OR

Asus Radeon R9 390X

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-strixr9390xdc3oc8gd5gaming

 

I am thinking of going for the MSI radeon since the MSI afterburner might work especially well for that card? I also have heard of the sapphire but it seems a bit sketchy to me

 

(also these look WAY cooler ) and I don't really want the sapphire because of colour choice... ORANGE? YUKKKK!

Ooh I didn't see a Sapphire card but if there is one I'd prefer it. It's usually a good company when it comes to AMD cards (well, technically that's the only type of cards they make so..) since apparently they get it before other companies. Between those 2, cooler-wise only, based on other card reviews, I'd say the MSI. The Asus coolers typically suck and their OC is even worse. They're a mediocre card producer and people tend to get their Strix line based on the name Asus. Yeah they produce nice boards and monitors but it's the same situation with the Corsair CX PSU's. They suck, people only get it for the name Corsair until they've noticed that their house is burned down due to the heat of that thing.

Well for some price comparison I don't know if the terrible colour and an extra 50 bucks is worth the slight more bit of performance

 

I saw this review and it seemed ok, so I think I am going to go with the R9 390X MSI Thanks for ur help and once I get back I will study up on the case design.

Uh huh that's great! The Sapphire might not always be the best choice, an MSI can work. The difference would be almost unnoticeable while hardcore gaming.

Hey ok so I was doing some research on the Phanteks Enthoo Luxe and the pro version is a mid tower case! I don't want a mid tower, I want it to be massive.

It might seem dumb but I think it looks so much more amazing and shiny when it is bigger

 

The luxe version seemed to be more suited for watercooling and I am NOT watercooling at all so that's terrible.

[ApexVasii]

Yeah, you could opt an H440 white version instead. It's more aesthetics but doesn't give up too much. It also comes with a whopping 4 case fans which is ridiculous!

Oh I forgot something, the Pro is almost as big as a full tower. If you really want an actual full tower tho, I'd get the NZXT Phantom. Tho I still agree with the Enthoo Pro.
