Prices change a lot with pc components, but some recommendations are to get a cheaper case, you don't need that big of a power supply, a 500w is plenty, and you can get an i3 which is enough for most tasks, and possibly you can get an rx 480 instead of an r9 380x.

Without downgrading the cpu, I cut about $30 off while upgrading the graphics card. Also, I manually added the price of the graphics card because it is a little hard to get now, but they will stock in the online stores soon. http://pcpartpicker.com/list/PpzdXH

I looked up some benchmark scores from geekbench, and the dual core i5 did a worse job in the test in single and multi core applications, than the i3. You will actually get a 25% boost in rendering times with the i3.

How is that possible I thought i5 are faster what is the difference betwen i5 vs i3

You currently have a mobile core i5, and the core i3 in the build is a desktop core i3. Not all core i5vs are faster than an i3. There are cases when a mobile core i7 is beat out by a desktop core i3. Mobile processors are cut down in specs to be more power efficient, because you can't fit much cooling in a laptop.

Stop using bad power supplies like the tr2 in your recommendations. Use @STRMfrmXMN psu whitelist before you select a psu.

PSU whitelist in my signature for reference. The TR2 is pretty fucking bad, even just with random people on our forum having issues with them.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Depends on how many drives you want to use.
