New build

[Elishah98]

Changed up my build, used to have an i7 but that's to much power for me. So going to go with an i5, thoughts? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/83QVdC

Looks good.

 

What are you going to be doing with it? Just gaming?

 

If so, a i5 is a good choice, maybe 16gb is a bit overkill though.

Yeah gaming and streaming, 16gb is probably overkill but it wouldn't hurt to have it.

What all was wrong with mine? You changed a lot of it and I didn't really see anything wrong

i changed a lot of parts for cheaper ones so that i could a better gpu. my build is going to be faster but you have got the better motherboard for example.

if you want to have the best bang for the buck i wouldn't recommend overclocking anymore. the k-cpu's and z-mobo's are to expensive these days.

if your budget is 1100$ you could even go with an i7
