Just need to double check this build for a friend is ok, its in Australia and Its being ordered from Umart.

He wants to spend under $2000 and the cheaper the better. Its main use is gaming and he doesn't plan on overclocking.

Well you should get a 390 over a 970, and make sure to get an IPS display for the monitor

Otherwise maybe a less expensive case overall and throw the money into either a last gen i7/xeon or an unlocked i5 with that motherboard

 

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I think 8GB of ram is just fine for gaming
