New 850$ Gaming PC

Hello Guys! I am new to the forum, I am about to buy a new computer for myself, you know... gaming and stuff! I wanted to ask you guys if maybe you could help me to get the best performance out of the money I have right now! In order to save a couple of extra bucks, I would like not to be one the new ddr4 generation since I already have 16gb of corsair DDR3 memory, and an 120gb kingston SSD. Btw, I doesn't necessarily need a case to be included:) I made this config, but, since you guys know a lot more about PC'S than me, I will ask you for help in order to make the most out of the money.

 

BTW: I am looking for the best performance on gaming, I am not looking foward to video or image rendering, apart from this, I will only be gaming at 1080p, so I don't care much about 4K or even more resolution. I just want the best frame rates, on the highest video settings possible, but in 1080p.

 

This is the config that I built: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/csn8f7

 

 

Thank you so much in advance guys!! And sorry if I am mistaken in my english, It is not my native language. :)  :)  :)  :)

 

PS: The prices should be in USD and the stores from the USA or Canada (If they have shipment to the US)

That power supply is a bit much for just one card. Do you plan on adding another later on?

I might just add another 970 in the future, when I get the money

Well I'll tell you you definitely got a decent rig setup there :). I would just like to add a few things. The first is that the amd r9 390 actually performs a little better than the GTX 970 at the same price. I personally recommend the MSI r9 390. Other than that I don't have much to say except for the case. Why no case? Do you already have one or something? Cause you can't really have a PC without a case... As well, Linus (technically Luke) did a video testing case fans, and found that more than 2 fans in the system doesn't really give you better performance but does make it louder. Of course if you are using those fans to replace then fans coming with your case(if you are getting one) then it's fine. Looks good!

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Since I'll be buying the parts in the US I won't be able to carry the case to my country, so I will buy one here. Thank you very much for the response I really apreciate it!!
