No point having the unlocked processor with an H-170 Motherboard

Some guy called my office, trying to sell me computers. I just said "oh you mean those little box's with the tv on top? Yeah, our accountant has some". He promptly gave up and hung up the phone lol

But why with a 750Ti? Considering that the balance between the CPU and GPU will be awful and that you can get a much better GPU for that price range...

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Going for a red themed build will eat out a large chunk of the budget. I recommend going for this instead - complete with a SSD:
