Hey everyone,

Would this be a good build for the money. I found this supercombo that seem pretty good. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.2535097

It comes with everything I want in it with an ssd and hard drive. I was also thinking of buying the rx 480 8gb version. Would this be good or is their a better system for the money?

Thanks,

MPH

The only positive i see is the low end mobo, almost all the other parts i've either never heard of or would never buy. But for $700.... I'd check the build logs on partspicker, might have something a bit nicer and nothing extra.

 

Edit, the barracuda HDD isn't bad.... I'd prefer WD for straight up warranty and build quality reasons but thats me.

I think this is a pretty good build overall. However, you should really put this into PCPartPicker and youll probably get a better overall price with some better name brands. Even though Newegg is a good dealer that doesn't mean they always have the lowest prices.
