So earlier today i was talking with some people on reddit who helped me shave off 300$ off my build, by going from 16 to 8gb of ram, going with this processor instead of the 4790, and going with a bronze psu instead of gold, and an ocz ssd instead of hyper x, i was looking for your opinions on the build in its current version of the build. I'm looking to buy the parts on november first, http://pcpartpicker.com/p/H6347P this is literally just a exporting box for my gameplay footage to twitch. which is why the elgao hd60 pro is in there.

Spend even less money like this and pick up the OS for super cheap off Reddit for like 30$. Also I went with a HDD instead of an SSD because your drive won't be a bottleneck in recording, and more storage in most cases is better than fast storage.

i dont need alot of storage, i literally need just obs or xsplit, os and drivers, so and hdd is kinda useless, and i dont trust buying an os off reddit. also , your kind of missing a few compatibility parts, and the capture device,

Trust me, it's better to have a lot of slower storage than some faster storage. Unless you're editing the video on this PC it literally won't help you at all, sure you'll boot faster but that's about it.

Also TONS of people by their OS off Reddit and it's incredibly safe, and if you could save about 100$ then why not?

how is it better to to have more and slower, if im not going to use it, and the faster speed, would benifit on acessing the few programs and boot, this is for livestreming not recording, and it wont save me about 100$ acording to your pricing it will save me 70$ and i have no gaurentee it will be legit if i buy it from a user on reddit, if i go to micro center in cambridge i know it will be legit.

If you go to MC than you'll end up spending money on gas and money in store. Look at all the people saying "awesome key, works perfect" on the threads. I'm just trying to save you money, and it would save you 95$ if the copy of windows you're getting is 125$ as listed in your PCPP link.

Could've sworn I saw 125 somewhere but I'm wrong :P Anyway you could save yourself time and money and literally have the key emailed to you by a member of the reddit community instead of overpaying.
