I have money?

[Marcus Torre DeProspero]

I have always been the guy who never has money ever since middle school and I just recently came into a large sum of money for my age. It was my mother's before she passed and my guardians gave me control of the money since I am now eighteen. I have over 40,000 dollars but I put 85% of it in a savings account and I now have 2,300$ to spend willy nilly. What do I do with it?

Well since you're on a tech forum: build a pc with it?

[Amazingasian]

Build a new computer?

[GSTARR]

I'm going to assume you want a pc....?

[flibberdipper]

I feel like you came here just to see people say build a PC...

 

I say buy some penny stocks that look promising.

I get that but what parts should I get. I only need a new cpu motherboard and graphics card.

5960x and a titan x

You could build an absolutely killer machine with $2,300

My dad spent like 20 bucks on some and I think now we have a few grand.

I don't want a 5960x it is just way too much power to be held in my hands

Just get a skylake i5K, OC capable motherboard, 980Ti and actually a better PSU (since those parts are expensive)

what do you NEED

I have a more than good psu but I don't really like i5s

[manikyath]

basing myself off your profile, i'll pitch you two ideas:

4790k with fitting motherboard, decent power supply and some new monitors and peripherals, and re-use all else.

6700k with fitting motherboard, ram, decent power supply and some new monitors and peripherals, and re-use all else.

 

maybe toss in a juicy GPU as well.

 

i do want to say this: DO NOT spend your money "willy nilly" my sister was in the same case a few years back, she got a beautiful car.. that now has a dent in it.

i'm in the same position, and i'm sitting on it until i find something useful to do with it.

[Marcus Torre DeProspero]

what do you NEED

cpu mobo and gpu

[manikyath]

if thats a corsair CX, you dont have a good psu.

It stomps the FX though why ask here if you are not willing to upgrade the parts that need an upgrade?

Hookers lots of hookers build an awesome gaming rig because why the hell not.

Good point but there is a reason why I have most of it saved and by most I mean 42,000$ of it

I actually just bought a corsair ax860i a couple days ago

thats pretty much the best corsair psu outside of the 80+ titanium one
