Could you format in pcpp? Your current format is VERY hard to read.

[verydogesuchwow]

you probably don't need 32gb of ram, unless you're into video/graphic production and other RAM intensive stuff

 

otherwise, looks good

[FuriousGamer]

Seagate drives are unreliable, go for a Western Digital black series or Caviar blue drive. 

 

A 390 is a lot better on the price to performance scale. 

 

32gb of ram is alot, what are you doing with this pc?

Ya, no, here, way better performance per dollar

 

if your display is 1080p it's not worth buying a 390X

EDIT* now with an i7, better hard drive, larger/better SSD still way under your initial price

 

look for a decent H170 board with USB 3.1 potentially with Type C and spend the rest of the money/save it for a better display

comment:

Spoiler

CPU: locked, but should perform better than the i5 in MULTI THREADED TASK, not in gaming though

CPU Cooler: missing but not required

Motherboard: non-oc board for non oc chip, no problem

RAM: much more reasonable

Storage:

SSD: missing

HDD: 2tb offers better value, barracuda offers better performance(?), its 7200rpm, doesnt really matter tbh

GPU: cant handle games at 1080p ultra for long, i still recommend a 390 if he wants to play ultra at 1080p

Case: untouched

PSU: can do better

 

price: yea, considering you cut down a few parts

maybe because you tried to back it up by copy and paste as linus had recently told us NOT to do.

Never did back it up because I didnt care about the data on them. But even if I had done that the drives still would of failed.

Then that makes more sense, but you should still buy an i7 rather than an i5, just downgrade to a 390, performance difference isn't too much anyways

 

also I probably wouldn't buy that PSU you originally had, XFX,seasonic, or super flower are usually good for PSUs

They're all faulty lol, I had a 3TB seagate drive that died for literally no reason one day. They've gotten better but still, no reason not to buy something like a WD red drive or HGST drive if possible
