Add an SSD with the extra money since it's less than the 800 he said.

Don't get the HDS though if you want usb 3.0, you have to buy the usb 3.0 wire.

Hey guys!

You'll probably want a 390 over a 970, more VRAM, potentially better DX12 support, and it's a bit faster overall

 

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?
